The Sir John Balcombe

Been coming here for years now. Great place to meet and grab a drink if you're in and around the Marylebone Station area. Great selection of beers and good food too. Relaxed atmosphere makes it an ideal place to chill with a drink. Seating out the front for the smokers. It's definitely worth a visit.

We stumbled upon Sir John Balcombe during our journey back to the station, prompted by a friend’s recommendation. This charming pub pleasantly surprised us with its cozy ambiance, and I can only imagine the lively atmosphere during peak hours. Our food and drinks were served promptly, and I must applaud their immaculate restroom facilities—truly the cleanest I’ve encountered in quite a while. The highlight was undoubtedly the delightful beef pie and vegetables; even the kids couldn’t get enough! For the exceptional experience, top-notch hygiene, and scrumptious dishes, a well-deserved 5 stars.

We had our wedding reception at the SJB earlier this month. It was a small affair for just 9 of us but wow, how Peter the manager looked after us. He went right out of his way to make their downstairs function room the ideal venue. Peter was charm personified and made our day completely unique and special. Happy wife, happy life, they say. Mine was delighted - this bodes well for the future. We have popped in on a couple of other occasions and always found the place to be lively and welcoming. Massive thumbs up from us
