The Lyceum, Strand

Real tourist trap pub this. Beer not in great nick to be honest, and it's Old Brewery/Sam Smiths, so don't expect anything "mainstream".

My rating of 5 reflects the fact that it's one of the few pubs in the area to have a dartboard (it's well lit and at the right height too!).

The Savoy Tup, Strand

Go to this pub if you like your ale in good condition, but don't expect all 3 to be on at once.

Bring your own food policy is great if you camp out in the upstairs room where there is a pool table and a dimly lit dartboard. More than a bit cold upstairs, but a better option for arrows than the Lyceum over the road. Downstairs nice and cosy, and a lot better than upstairs which has seen better days.

Bar staff friendly and eager to please, and despite some shortcomings in the pub I'll go back again and again.
