I liked everything about this place....the ornate Victorian decor, the crunchy brown fish (my favorite meal during an entire week in London), the beer, and the friendly servers. It made me go home and read about Princess Louise. I think she would have liked her pub. More

I visited this pub occasionally when I was a student in London in 1984/5. Visiting London again in December 2011 we stayed at Carr-Saunders Hall and walked to the British Museum on a Sunday morning.

Bar staff were simply amazing and a well deserved tip was given. Service was the best I've seen in London! It's probably the best looking bar I've ever been to and the interior of the bars not bad either! Highly recommend! More

High Victorian atmosphere. Cheap beer. You'll never see another place like it. Go here! More
