I normally prefer chicken but the duck wasn't bad. All the food was decent and the staff were all nice. It's unfortunate that the walk to the restaurant passes by the smelly toilets. Also there was only one lift working that day so it took a little time to get up/down.

Yes, a lot of the food is microwaved and agreed the quality is not top notch, but for he price, what were you expecting!! How many other places get you a Beer, Chips and Burger for £5!

There is a lot of activity - especially on weekdays - for mothers and kids, and weekend activities for families and adults alike. There are two main 4-day events held every year: the Christmas Fair (November) and the Easter Fair (March/April). These attract thousands of visitors, but few know that outside of these times, there's a lot going on - and it's often very delicious! There's a Finnish meal for £6 (£4 veg or £3 soup) on Saturdays, and often on weekdays (contingent on other activities). Then there's always a basic cafe which serves sweet and savoury pastries and filter coffee and tea. Prices are very reasonable for London standards and the atmosphere is relaxing and homely. The church is a welcoming place for people, regardless of their background, and many come out of curiosity to try Finnish foods or to meet Finnish friends.

This place doesn't technically have it, but their braised beef & ale shortcrust pie comes very close, and it's one of their specialties. Creamed potato, greens, rich gravy... comfort food done right. £19.50 and honestly worth it, especially on a cold, wet day. The ambiance really welcomed me in: warm, cozy interior with the fireplace going and a charming vintage Christmas aesthetic. Add in friendly people and genuinely warm service. Exactly the kind of pub you hope to stumble into on a rainy London morning. I'm hyped.

The food is good. I had the beef pie and it was made with raclette cheese, hispi cabbage, mashed potatoes. It was good. Almost like eating in kitchen of someone's mum. My boyfriend and our friend each got the fish and chips and were satisfied. Honestly, none of us could finish our meals because they were pretty ample. Shared a sticky toffee pudding with my boyfriend and it was everything! The sponge cake was the proper density, maintaining a soft yet firm texture (without being dry) whilst holding the toppings of ice cream, toffee sauce, whipped cream, etc. Moist with all the proper flavors. I liked it. I probably wouldn't go back again only because there are so many authentic pubs in London and it's fun to try as many as possible.
