Reviews
This is a super cozy and quaint English tavern just across the street from Big Ben. The service was friendly and accommodating. The fish & chips was huge, hot, and melts in your mouth. The sausage & mash was hearty and savory. The chilli con carne was a delicious treat. Definitely try this spot for authentic English comfort food!

Unbeatable location, right across the street from Big Ben, which makes it a very convenient stop after walking around Westminster.
The place has that classic English tavern feel you would expect, but during our visit there was no music or real atmosphere, which took away some of the energy and overall experience.
One important thing to note is that the menu was very limited, with only about four items available. That said, the fish and chips was truly delicious, very well prepared and served with a sauce that really elevates the dish. The mulled wine was also very good, perfect for the London weather.
The service was good and polite, but considering the prime location and iconic concept, it could definitely be warmer and more engaging to fully match the setting.
Overall, it is worth visiting for the location and a solid fish and chips, but there is clear room to improve both the atmosphere and the service to live up to where it is located.

This is very unexpected but I love it! The food is great. Their location is very accessible. And also our Andy man, always taking care of us and never let us down! I’ll come back next time for any chances

One of the best pubs I frequented in London, been back twice in one trip, steeped in history entrenchdd in its walls, comfy leather sofas and made even better by the welcoming staff. We were lucky to make it upstairs for a more private dining.
Food-hands down one of the best fish n chips on this side of town, generously portioned fish bigger than my face and crispy batter was executed flawlessly. That paired with their crisp, refreshing house lager was just perfect.
Step outside and enjoy the view of Big Ben at the doorstep.
Caveats: limited seating and gets busy so book or visit earlier prior to rush hour.

Amazing experience! Dinner was excellent from start to finish. The fish and chips was really good — fresh fish, perfectly crispy and full of flavour. A special mention to the service, which was outstanding. Jon was incredible and truly made the experience even better. Highly recommended!

Wow! Such a great place to end our day of touring the area. We were seated right away with our reservation in an upstairs dining room. Joseph made our visit wonderful with suggestions and even a great beer to try. We had a large party of 9 with teens to seniors and we had a wonderful time. We tried the pie sampler, fish and chips, Caesar salads, scotch eggs. Everything was delicious and hit the spot.

This place absolutely delivers the kind of classic, atmospheric dining experience that feels both authentic and memorable.
From the moment you step inside, the setting stands out. The interior has that timeless pub character, warm wooden finishes, ornate ceiling details, and a striking chandelier that adds a touch of elegance without losing the cozy, lively feel. The space is busy in the best way: full of energy, conversation, and that unmistakable buzz of people genuinely enjoying themselves. Sunlight streaming through the windows enhances everything, giving the whole place a golden, inviting tone.
Now to the food, this is where it really shines.
The fish and chips is exactly what you hope for when ordering this British classic. The batter is beautifully crisp and golden, light rather than greasy, with a satisfying crunch that gives way to perfectly flaky, tender fish inside. The chips are thick-cut and well-seasoned, pairing perfectly with the freshness of the lemon wedge. The tartar sauce adds a creamy, tangy balance, and the mushy peas complete the dish in a traditional and comforting way. It’s simple, but executed at a very high level.
The crispy beef brisket bites are a standout in their own right. The exterior is deeply crisp with a rich, caramelised coating, while the inside remains juicy and full of flavour. Pairing them with pickles is a smart touch, the acidity cuts through the richness and elevates each bite. That contrast between crunchy, savoury meat and sharp pickle creates a really satisfying combination.
Overall, this place nails both quality and atmosphere. It’s not just about eating, it’s about enjoying the full experience: great food, vibrant surroundings, and a setting that feels both classic and welcoming. Definitely somewhere you’d want to return to.

Headed here after our parliament visit but it was full and the host was nowhere to be found therefore we left. We came back after a while but the host was quite rude when we asked where we can wait for a table. Her reasoning was we were using the main enterance but where else would we enter. Anyway we waited and seated but we were informed that we need to order. I mean yeah we are here to drink and eat we just needed to settle.
Ordered shepherds pie and 2 drinks. They were ok. In my opinion this is just another cookie cutter pub which only relies on its former history and glory.

Great beers and easily the best fish and chips we had in London during our trip. The fish tasted fresh and perfectly crispy, and we really enjoyed the pea mush that came with it. The waitress was very friendly and thoughtful, checking in with us and offering condiments.

1434!!! This place has so much history, from wall lined pictures, worn wooden floors, well used counters, every where you look, it's amazing. You would think that food would not be able to live up to the ambience but food was great, considering it's pub food.
We got fish pie, bhaji burger and fish & chips but were surprised that everything was good.
The restrooms aren't clean so be aware. If you get a chance, walk up the stairs to see the pictures and drawings along the walls.

Working with Letticia was a dream!!!! She and her team were so professional and courteous.
They catered to every demand and request we had. The venue was so beautifully decorated, with all the vendors working well and efficiently to ensure that the wedding was epic!!!
Despite the long hours, Leticia ensured that we were well accommodated.
The bride and groom and their guests had so much fun.
I definitely recommend this venue for your weddings, special events, and occasions.

A great option for eating or having a drink without leaving the museum and continuing your visit. The menu is quite limited, but the food is very good. They don't serve beer. The staff is very attentive and friendly, including one who speaks Spanish and helps with choices.
