Nice traditional pub. Friendly service and good crowd.

My Directors poured by a pretty foreign girl. Crap. Please teach these girls how to pull a proper pint. Not just here, but everywhere in London

On the surface it has a nice 'boozer' feel to it, but with only two ales on tap and a preponderance of bland lager-type choices I find myself a tad disappointed. One to pass by - Soho has better to offer than this.

Small and unremarkable single-room boozer with the classic "standing room only" type layout beloved of so many West End pubs. This one is run by GK: two ales on when I visited: IPA and what from their website I think must be their Royal London Ale. I had a pint of the latter and would have to admit it was well-served and enjoyable, but all in all this is not a pub worth visiting as anything other than a brief respite from shopping in the area.

Unremarkable corner boozer with unremarkable GK ales which were particularily average. There are a lot better pubs in Soho than this one and, come to think of it there is better Blue Posts in Soho as well

I work around the corner from the Blue Posts and have been going there for lunch regularly for the past 2 or 3 months as the food is OK and we normally get a table (there are normally 8-10 of us).
However, on several occasions they forgot one of the meals and we've had to wait longer for it, been late back to work etc etc.
The last straw was today, they forgot my meal and proceeded to serve my order to someone else who ordered after us. When I complained the waitress said she couldn't give me that meal and I'd have to wait. She checked and said my my meal was ready and coming out next - out it came only to be given to the table next to us. My colleagues had finished eating by this point.
We complained and were told the kitchen staff were new, just not good enough. I got a refund and left hungry.
Don't bother with this pub, the service is awful, the staff miserable and the beer choice limited.

Has all the attributes of a clasic old school london boozer. 3 light bulbs emitting 15 watts of light between them. Small toilets, no mirror for the blokes, limited salty bar snacks, sodden beer towles, couple of dogs in the corner and a lovely old Labrador with a limp. The Beer was as standard as the 70's wall paper.

This is a smallish little corner pub. Only Abbott and GKIPA on handpump. The GKIPA tasted like it always does. It has some interesting looking leaded lights at the top of the bay windows that look like original features. If they are not original then they are remarkably good reproductions.

This is a fairly unremarkable pub that is probably not worth the effort of seeking out, but OK for a pint if you are happy to be passing, although there are better places within easy walking distance.

This is a very small boozer with an upstairs area (I did not visit) and some seating outside with ample standing room. Greene King IPA and Abbott Ale were available from the friendly barmaid as well as some standard lagers.

It was very busy on my visit so I didn�t stay long, but it would have probably been more enjoyable if I could have got a table.

A reasonable pub.

Busy as hell when we went in there, but had three bar staff (two didn't seem to do much except yawn). Pints on were Directors amd Adnams, chose to have fizzy pop lager as I didn't fancy either of them.

It's an attractive enough place, with some nice low lighting to set the mood. This place does have some potential, but I'd try and get some decent beer in next time. Other than that, OK as pubs go and at least it looked like a proper pub

Nice little pub. Very 1960's, not put on 'retro' 60's, but the real deal. Think Get Carter rather than Austin Powers.

nice little pub
handy if you are shopping in carnaby st.

They serve a nice pint of ale in this place and that's saying something for this part of the world.

Go upstairs, where they've got a dumb waiter to bring your beers up.

Very nice place.

Probably the worst pub I have ever visited. Very dirty.
