This was one of the best places we ate in London. My husband and I love to find "holes in the wall" so we just tried to find a pub off the beaten path. This place was absolutely stellar! I had to knock its atmosphere down 1 star because of the weird tiny bathroom. Otherwise. PERFECT place.

Loved the vibe of the pub! The service was great and food really good - we just had padron peppers and pulled pork fries but they were delicious. Beers are expensive but that’s probably because of the central location just next to Monument Cool part is that they have some historical explanations on the wall about the building and you find out that this pub was burned during the great London fire and then rebuilt in its original form!

Lovely little pub not too far from Monument train station. Staff are friendly and welcoming. Food is good and reasonably priced.
