The ambiance at The Scarsdale Tavern is cozy and welcoming, a perfect reflection of traditional British hospitality. Charming flowers adorn the pub, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

The food here is exceptional, with the Sunday roast truly standing out. I opted for the lamb, which was cooked to perfection, tender and bursting with flavor. The fish and chips, another classic, did not disappoint either, offering a crispy, golden batter and succulent fish. And for those seeking a hearty meal, the steak pie is an absolute must-try.

A special mention must be made of their Bloody Marys, which were some of the best I've ever had. They perfectly complemented the meals and added an extra zest to the dining experience.

Had a little bit of a strange and unfortunate experience here. My partner had attempted to make a reservation in advance using the establishment’s out of date system and even made a phone call to book us a spot.

We persisted and sat outside where there was no table service and would have to go inside to order. After ordering two beers we decided to call it a day and head somewhere else due to the fact that the tables were so cramped that once the folks sitting next to us began smoking it went straight into our faces.

Our original reservation should have been honored or something else should have been done to compensate for the confusion and the establishment’s out of date system.
