Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I'll go again on my next trip to London as I couldn't absorb all the weird wonderfulness in one go.

- Duncan H1 contributionGreat night, well run, excellent atmosphere and I laughed loads. The MC Patrick was hugely entertaining & his crowd work was very good. A mixed bill of new acts doing there thing & seasoned pros trying out new stuff in front of an electric crowd..

- Sonja KStockholm, Sweden281 contributionsWent to two concerts with Mamas Gun. The space at the entrance level with the scene is smaller than I remember. Toilets and wardrobe downstairs. Upstairs tables with dinner options. They take in about 400 guests per night. Nice staff, prices in the bar was OK.

- Have Camera, Will TravelSouth Bend, IN3,714 contributionsWe had a morning time slot for the Buckingham Palace Tour, so I was looking for a place to have lunch around 1 or so. I also was very interested in finding a place to have Beef Wellington, which is one of the British meals we hadn't done yet. The Grenadier fit perfectly. Who doesn't love a good London Pub? I made the reservation for 2 directly with them via email and got a confirmation the next day. I was excited.
We arrived and were promptly seated in the back at a tiny table. It was fine. The exterior is very cool. The interior is all old school charm. She ordered the steak and I ordered the Beef Wellington. We were going to share with each other, so this worked well. The Wellington was very good and the star. The steak was good. I highly recommend the Beef Wellington.
This is a small, quiet place tucked behind a very upper class area of London. The cars on the main road that this back alley (Mews?) was lined with Rolls Royce, Bentley, Porsche, and the like. It almost seemed like a secret that it was back there. I know it is a well know pub, but the area makes it feel special.
Highly recommend.Written 24 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - sleep007Lancashire, UK3,175 contributionsSaturday early evening entertainment right in the middle of London.
A compere and 4 acts were the 2 hour entertainment. Bar options were good but they needed more staff. Prices a bit steep.
Acts were of varying quality but overall a good early evening. The Premium seats are further back but at least give you a ledge to put your drinks on. Otherwise it’s hold on to them everywhere else.
Hecklers seemed to be given a bit more slack from security than I’ve seen up North.Written 21 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
