Still one of my favourite pubs in the west end. Can get busy at times, but you never have to wait long for a table. There's always a good selection of ales, including both classics and guest ales and the staff are pleasant and efficient. Also, if you're looking for a decent pie then this is the place to go!

Recently re-opened and under new management, the White Hart is a little gem in the heart of Tudor London, right next door to the Bob Hope Theatre.�
The new landlords have obviously spent a lot of time and money renovating this landmark pub and have done a cracking job. Both the interior decor and beer garden (and even the washrooms) have been fitted out to a high standard.
I was recently staying with family in Eltham (during an Olympic test event at Royal Artillery Barracks just up the road) and we popped in for an afternoon drink, and to escape the rain! We were warmly greeted by Dave the manager who showed us into the lounge area, �furnished with leather armchairs and a huge sofa. After looking over both the bar menu and restaurant menu we decided to stay for food and moved into the restaurant side. My 8oz sirloin steak was perfectly cooked and, at just �9.99, easily beats the price and quality of a lot of other 'chain' pubs and Carveries. The cask ales on tap included Bombardier and Greene King, good solid London favourites :o)
We came back for more at the weekend and I look forward to visiting again when I return for the Olympics. The White Hart is a fantastic family friendly pub that London can be proud of, we desperately need more like it.

The Maid of Muswell, Muswell Hill
What can I say? Fr�li on tap and fantastic food, what more can you ask for? :o) I got to spend new year here with friends a couple of years ago and can honestly say it was one of the best new years I've ever had. No stupid tickets to get in, or grumpy bouncers and the crowd were cheerful and relaxed (and very merry by the end of the night). The Maid of Muswell is a must for anybody living in or visiting the area.
