Nice historical pub in a posh world of Mayfair, a good place to hop in for a pint. I don't get some reviewes complaining about small things like worn chairs.. it's a pub, not a resturant.
Drinks: quite a small selection but you'll find smth to enjoy for sure. Food: 3 stars are about it. Had some plans nearby and booked a table for a quick bite (Sat, 3pm). Booking was confirmed with no warnings or additional notes. When we arrived we had to find someone to seat us.. but it is quite common for pubs. After getting our table we were informed that we need to order our foods at the bar (which is quite common as well).. we've spent some time exploring the menu and I have to say it was quite a rich menu for a pub and specials were looking very promising. But only after I spent 15min in a line to the bar I was informed that I'll have to wait for 1h for my food to arrive (even just chips). So not my booking nor the staff who seated us warned me about this. As a result - time wasted to get there.. very frustrating.
Staff: quite friendly...
Read moreI've been to this pub on and off for the last 3-4 years as used to work in Mayfair. Decided to give it a visit over the Christmas period whilst in town. Service is second to none. Kind, warm gentleman serving at the bar. One guy was wearing a t-shirt that said "cricket is everyone's game with gentleman's crossed out". Seems a small thing but it felt so inclusive from that pov... and in the wake of what's going on now it was really nice to see (although I doubt that was to do with it) and just what the bar manager believes in. I'm a big cricket fan so that was nice.
I didn't catch his name but a young guy with brown hair was so kind and sat at my table to hold it whilst I got up to get another drink. Don't change guys - this is why we remember you and come back years later. Nice to see racial diversity serving at the bar too.
See you soon for sure and thanks for the hospitality. I hope Fullers sees this and commends you...
Read moreExtremely rude staff! Popped in for a solo lunch after work and there was a small blonde woman behind the counter who was texting and ignoring me, assuming she was busy with something I happily just stood there waiting and after a while I noticed she was just staring at me. So I said hello and she just carried on looking at her phone and said hi, I asked if it was okay to just sit anywhere and she very sarcastically said ‘yes if a table is free you can sit there’, I came back after a few minutes to order and she was speaking on the phone so I again waited, and again without saying anything, noticed that she was just staring at me!!! I said ‘can I make a food order please’, and then waited for a response like a normal person; I then got another sarcastic reply ‘.. I’m listening”. So I just said that she was rude and walked out. Absolutely no reason to be so rude to me, actually upset me a bit as it was so uncalled for! Shame...
