The Star Tavern, Belgravia

Fantastic Sunday roast! Pictures are a beef/pork combo roast and some pigs in blankets. The beef was served medium rare, and the pork had crispy crackling. The gravy was top notch and complimented the roast veggies well. They ran out of cauliflower cheese, but bulked up the rest of the meal with other veggies. The Yorkshire pudding was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The vibes of the pub were cute and classic, there was a cool print of olden day London. The service was top notch, the people were friendly and informative. Highly recommend, might be one of my favourite roasts I’ve had this year

The Star Tavern 📍6 Belgrave Mews West, London SW1X 8HT 🚇 Knightsbridge 🍺 £6.75 Asahi ❤️ An exquisite pub with London folklore attached. . The Star Tavern is located on an idyllic mews in swish Belgravia. The nearest Tube is Knightsbridge which is a gentle five minute walk away. . This striking Victorian building was built in 1848 and has been a bolt hole for some famous and infamous punters over the years. The Star is infamous for being the place where the Great Train Robbery was planned, it was masterminded by Bruce Reynolds and carried out in 1963. This pub’s heyday was in the 50’s & 60’s, celebrities who frequented The Star include Bing Crosby, Princess Margaret, Peter O’Toole and Diana Dors. . The decor here is traditional, there are wooden floors, shabby furnishings and memorabilia-covered walls which give this boozer a proper London pub feel. On the right as you walk in is the small but perfectly formed servery and on the left is a good sized bar which has a ample seating and a unique feel to it. Upstairs is an additional bar which is where it is said the planning for the great train robbery took place. . This @fullers pub has an excellent beer choice, it’s in fact so good that this pub has featured in the good beer guide for fifty years. Being the uncultured swine that I am, I decided on a pint of Asahi. My pint was top drawer if a little pricey. Fullers do pub grub very well, the food menu here has lots of traditional fayre, fish and chips will set you back £17.95. . I arrived just after the pub opened with my Brother and Nephew, we ordered our beers and took a seat at the far end of the bar. We were all in agreement how impressed by the look and feel of this boozer. Just after we had our first sups a large group of senior gentleman arrived and the atmosphere was elevated and upbeat. The service was good, we were served by a nice chap behind the bar who was very welcoming . . @thestartavern is yet another outstanding pub that calls Belgravia its home. The mews setting, the fabulous decor and architecture, and who doesn’t love a story about a bit of London skullduggery, its all here. . ℹ️ Info correct on visiting 04.11.22

Stopped by here for dinner, particularly wanted to get a Sunday roast. It was later in the day and unfortunately they had run out of Yorkshire puddings but gave us a little more beef. The food we had was excellent! I really enjoyed it. Very flavorful beef roast and veggies. This is a Fuller’s pub and had London Pride beer which accompanied the food very well. The pub is a listed building nestled in a very upmarket area of London. It was not that busy when I visited late Sunday and seems to have more locals than tourists. It was a fine stop and would recommend it, food was excellent… next time I will remember to get there earlier so I don’t miss out on Yorkshire pudding!
