It's undoubtedly one of the best pubs in London. It's the most reasonably priced place I've found in the city. A Pimms lemonade costs just £5.90, and it's delicious. When I went there with a booking with my friends, it wasn't crowded, but it's still better to book ahead. The atmosphere was also nice, and they let me use the Wi-Fi. I'd jump at the chance to go there again soon.

Came here for darts an hour and a half before close. We were served by a lovely gentleman who was very kind and got our drinks to us very fast. However a short women with short hair and blue eyes refused us to play darts or beer pong because they wanted to have a “quiet Sunday”. Disappointing that we ubered 20 minutes to a bar that specifically had bar games, great vibe but won’t be returning due to the service.

Pretty reasonable prices, but thank god, a proper beer selection beyond the normal 4.0 ABV British standards. As an American, it’s good to see some bars have seen the light!

Somewhat of a different take on this place since we came for a quick lunch rather than a pint after work. Absolute value of a lunch set with its multiple burger options and sides AND a drink. Loved the pint of cider (certainly didn't help our productivity after but well). Would come back. Beautiful burger as well.
