   The pub was pretty quiet last night, but service was terrible. Arrived, were sat and server then promptly disappeared to the back section (which was empty). After about 15 minutes went up ourselves and got some menus. Waiter clearly didn’t want to be there. Eventually managed to order food and drinks and have a drink served. Food is good (although they have really jacked up their prices!). Asked for the bill, waiter acknowledged and then watched him polish and move glasses on and off a tray for about 10 minutes, then clear our table and then ask us if we still wanted our bill? We said we did, and had asked him for it quite a while ago. He clearly didn’t appreciate this, brought the bill and slammed it and the payment machine on the table and walked off…. When he came back I said that what he’d done wasn’t great, he just looked at me - so I asked for the manager. Explained it the manager what had happened and his first reply was ‘oh, I’m sure it wasn’t as bad as that’! When my guest assured him it absolutely was he just said ‘oh sorry’ and went and got the bill again. Such a shame as I live nearby and this used to be a great pub - clearly not anymore. Shan’t be back. There’s the Princess Grace and the Hayden around the corner, will continue spending my money where you are made to feel welcome, not a burden.

   My friends enjoyed their roast lunches and I enjoyed my roast squash and lentils salad. Very nice relaxed ambiance and good table service in the restaurant.

   I recently dined at this restaurant with a friend, and we had an outstanding experience from start to finish. The food was simply exceptional – we started with the mushroom and duck egg dish and the beet hummus, both of which were bursting with flavor. For the main course, we enjoyed a perfectly cooked ribeye that was tender and full of rich, savory taste. Our server, Marcio, went above and beyond to ensure we had an unforgettable meal, attending to every detail with genuine warmth and attentiveness. His service truly enhanced our dining experience. I’ll definitely be returning and highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to enjoy a fantastic meal in a welcoming atmosphere!

   Sadly we may have hit on a bad day. Service was painful. Very slow and a number of follow up requests for missing items were ignored, drinks were incorrect, one was missing after 30 mins and we had to go to the bar to order again. 30 mins before we realised no one was coming to take our order so we had to get up and find someone to do so. A further 30 mins until we got our food which considering it was mainly roasts was confusing as surely just needed plating up. No mint sauce for roast lamb, tried to charge £13 for a child’s portion of mac n cheese. Food was mediocre, roast potatoes awful which I think many people judge a roast by! Carrots rock hard. Sadly we’ll not be back, the pub itself is nice but staff were indifferent and sadly just not the standard we’re used to in the area.

   Excellent Sunday lunch. Outstanding quality of beef and lamb roasts. Courteous staff. Pleasant atmosphere of the best of London local pubs.
