This pub closed more than a year ago... now it's a gastropub without name, I think.

Been going to this place regularly for five years now. Lyndsey is a great host, and does a brilliant job with her regular rotation of bar staff. The Thai food is not just great - it's pretty awesome, especially the curries. However, I brought some mates here and they were nonplussed. The beer's not cheap, I guess, and it can get full with suits...so why do I go?? I suppose it feels like a local pub. It's very friendly and has atmosphere. What more do you want?

There are some bad pubs around Covent Garden/Holborn, and this is by no means the worst of the bunch.
But I wouldn't go to the Rampage (why the name?!?) by choice. Went in this week as a friend had reserved a couple of tables for birthday drinks. They sell 2 ales; the one I tried was horribly off. Why I didn't point this out to the staff (who were very friendly) I don't know. My bad. So I stuck to the wine, which wasn't great for �14.50 a bottle. The pub was stuffy and smoky, especially up at the back where we were. Decor is weird, like they can't decide whether to be traditional or modern. Can't remember the music policy. In summary - could do better.

Great place for drinks, awesome thai food and friendly staff. Ian did a great job and now Lindsey has carried on the success. Too many great nights to remember in there, always very accomadating and helpful. Recommend!

To my mind, the best pub in London. Not too poncey, not too working mans club. By far the friendliest staff in town, I haven't worked nearby for years but I still class it as my "local".

It's a decent atmosphere in here, or any pub, when they don't play mis-placed horrendous Ibiza 90s euro-house shite loudly at 6pm on a wet Wednesday. However, this place recently specialised in wet Wednesdays and loud 90s euro-house shite.

Decent bar that at times that serves both real ales and good Thai food. Has unusual decor of bright pictures and an overall airy feel.

Had a very drunkin night here last week. Its a greta place for after work drinks and not far from holborn or covent garden tubes. The Manager knows how to look after the customers which is great! Cheers

Nice pub, used to be called the "The Bailey".

The Thai food on offer is great value and very tasty - a good place to grab lunch, but get there early, it fills up fast.

Downstairs bar has aircon. An absolute must in this weather.

Nice atmosphere mixed with friendly staff, and the all important ingredient of Bunderburg rum
