The Oak Room restaurant (upstairs) - Fantastic place! Service was friendly professional and efficient. We even saw the chef and it was obvious he was passionate about his food. I had the Scallops, rib-eye steak and cheese board. I did book this place hoping to have the Beef Wellington but unfortunately it was off the menu when we visited. The waitress was very apologetic though. Regardless, the food and atmosphere was top notch. Very classic but relaxed and cozy without being stuffy. Pricey, but worth it.
The main bar - it's alright, has the same ol world charm as the Oak Room however when we went they didn't have much in the way of cask ales on and the two bartenders didn't seem very interested in serving us, however to be fair it was just before christmas and they were also dealing with the 2 pint wonders that try to drink for England.
That aside the spiced apple and rum mulled drink was lovely.
Basically if you're going for the Oak room then it's great.
Wonderful, cozy, beautiful historic pub! Friendly bartenders were lovely to chat with. Nice gin selection and some cask ales. One of my favourite pubs in London!
Done in the magic of a restaurant which was established in 1549!!!! Not to be missed at all. You really feel the wealth of history. The food is local English and the taste is exceptional. The service is more than excellent. Try their local best-seller. Exceptional time
Lovely pub just out of the hustle and bustle. The chips are huge, they probably one get 4 out of one large potato.
Great selection of beers on tap too.
We're coming here every week, just for the Sunday Roast, it really excellent, but there are other great options on the menu. You should try the Crème Brûlée! Also, the staff are very nice and professional.
This was recommended to us by a friend in London as it was not far from our hotel and near the Holborn underground.
We decided to check it out before heading to the airport. Just turn left as you step out from the Holborn station. It's about 150m there is a tiny street on your left. Anyone would have missed this as it's not visible from the road.
There is an outdoor area in front of the pub. Service is good, we got to taste the beers before deciding on which ones we wanted. It was full, no place to sit, we had luggage with us. A waitress very kindly seated us at a table which was reserved for customers while waiting for a free table. There was a menu for Sunday roast, it appeared to be reasonably priced. Snacks are available after dining times. Best to rsvp if you plan to dine in.
We were there for 30 to 40 minutes, wished we had more time. I recommend this place!
Great staff and good pub. Only thing is fair few homeless people pass by but they are polite and as long as you acknowledge them , say hello or you don't have spare change, they are fine.
