A fantastic pub. Superb service (especially Scott!). Excellent food. Can’t recommend it highly enough.
Perfect cozy pub with history. We sat upstairs with nice view . The lunch specials are very tasty. Our server, wish I had gotten the lady’s name, was very friendly even though all the tables were full and she was hustling.
Very nice pub with a great selection of beers.
Warm atmosphere, helpful staff and delicious food.
It's ideal for a lunch break or meeting with your friends.
Usually it's quite busy but service is fast and helpful.
Only had drinks, but first class choice of beer, great atmosphere! 👍
The waitress upstairs needs a medal for all the people she served she moved tables for people she had a smile on her face. The service was quick. Sadly my wife’s steak and ale pie had a lot of gristle in it. The waitress change it for a chicken pie. But overall good Neckoil friendly staff Busy pub
Stopped in for lunch while in the area. Cool old English pub vibe (for this Yank family anyway). Beautiful old building and bar. Standard pub fare with fish and chips and various pies. Steak and Nicholson’s pie was excellent with tasty meaty bits, flavorful gravy, and a flaky crust. Piping hot! Stic
Scott was our server, and he was wonderful! He was very friendly and helpful, both regarding the food and drink selections, as well as regarding our questions as tourists. The food and drinks were excellent as well. We will definitely return to this place the next time we are in London!
The next stop on our journey to gain additional British pub knowledge led us to “Ye Olde Watling.”
Talk about humble beginnings, it was built by Sir Christopher Wren after the Great Fire of London destroyed the prior building on this site.
This historic pub first opened its doors in 1668 and the c
The serving team and waiters were really good I think you need to raise their pay because they are doing really good bringing your pub a enthusiastic vibes attracting more customers like me.
I've been here a few times for lunch. The pies are great, proper pastry, generous filling and tasty. However, on my last visit I noticed the portions have got smaller, and it didn't seem as well prepared as previous. But nevertheless a good lunch even though a bit expensive. Good selection of ales.
Outstanding atmosphere, food, and beers at this traditional pub. Scott treated these two old tourists like family, making us feel very much at home. Cheers
A fine olde pub built by local builder Sir Christopher Wren when he had a day off from working on the old cathedral down the road, the road being Watling Street with all its Roman connotations. Timbers from salty old battleships feature extensively. It is a lovely place with a fine offering of ales.
Walked in at 6pm and was immediately helped by a staff member who overheard me saying to my friend "I wonder if the kitchen is still open", thanks guy with the curly hair and earrings. Kindly directed us upstairs where Mike (?) helped us with getting seated and was kind enough to bring us beer taste
Food was excellent and service was fair. We had the best fish and chips of our entire trip here!
We had an excellent experience. We were in London only for the day, walked all, and stumbled upon this place on our way to St. Paul's Cathedral. Sat in the bar area by the window. The bartender was super friendly, even gave us recommendations where else we could visit in London, being it was our 1st
A pub where Christopher Wren used to work after the great fire of London in 1666.
Food is always at high standards when the tall chef cooks. Well done. Keep it up 👆🏻
What a gem of a find!! Great beers, delicious food and even more astounding service. Scott was amazing and made us feel so welcome and set a new standard for service. If you plan to own a pub or any service business Scott is the benchmark for AWESOME. If you are in the area or in London you should d
