Huge thank you to the team! I also noticed the restaurant was completely full and cozy of happy customers, which was great to see. If you're looking for classic bangers and mash in London, this is the place to get it. The customizability is incredible: just pick your main or pie, choose a mash, and drown it in gravy. With so many combination options, there are truly zero wrong answers. . A highlight was being introduced to Tracklements Spitfire Chilli Mustard--it was so good we had to ask where we could buy a jar! To top off a great meal, it was such a lovely surprise to learn that the owner used to live in Vancouver! Great food and wonderful staff! It does get very busy, so just be patient with the line; it's well worth the wait!

The bangers were tasty, the mash was comforting, and the whole thing hit the spot after a day of exploring. But the food wasn't even the best part--the people were! Super friendly service, and I got to chat with the owner, who was genuinely one of the nicest people I've met on this trip. You can tell when someone really cares about their restaurant and the people walking through the door. Now for the sticky toffee pudding...DIABETIC DEEEELISH! My pancreas may file a formal complaint. JK...That sticky toffee pudding was ridiculously good. Great food, genuinely lovely people, and a dessert that made me dance. Welp! Onto the next!

It is in a stately old house - we were seated in the library - a beautiful room with built in bookshelves and hanging chandeliers. The menu was impressive, but I wanted to compare their fish and chips to the others I had around London. The portions were great and it tasted the same as it did at the Swan, so they tied for the best fish and chips we had on our trip. Service was outstanding - the best we experienced on our trip. Our server was present, knowledgeable, attentive, and very friendly. He made our experience that much better.

Luckily we found some stool seating by the front and were able to enjoy some beers and take in the ambiance. There's an upstairs that is accessible by a very very narrow staircase which even has handles for support, all part of the fun lol!! Beer: We tried out the Guinness (great pouring process!), peroni, and a local ale which the bartender allowed me to sample. He was very helpful and walked me through the different ciders they had in stock and even how you could add fruit syrups to sweeten the flavor. What makes this place even more memorable was the helpfulness of the young guy bartending. He helped us plan how to get to Gatwick airport extremely early the next morning and we owe him a big one!

Luckily…read morethey had a table available for an hour and a half, so we were able to take it before the next set of guests arrived. We got the scotch egg to share, which I was so excited to try. It was perfect - crispy outside and meaty inside, with the brightest orange runny yolk with a touch of flakey salt. It was so delicious! For my main I got the pork belly, which was also perfect. The skin was so crispy and crunchy, the meat was juicy, and the layers of fat in between were delicious. I loved the abundance of veggies and also the potatoes on the side. Service was so friendly, and the ambiance was great too! I'd highly recommend this spot for a Sunday roast.

We booked in advance, but the hostess informed us our reservation had not been logged and questioned whether I had booked at all. When I showed her the confirmation, she brushed it off and sat us at a table with other patrons. Not the biggest deal but something that rarely happens to me. The food itself was underwhelming. The monkfish scampi was unremarkable, except to say they barely added any sauce on the side. The steak and kidney pie was good, if a bit doughy. But the gravy was delicious. The side of mash we got, however, was as bad as anything I've had and was clearly microwaved. If you want to get a drink or try the pie? You'll very much enjoy your experience. If you are expecting quality service and a well rounded menu, you will be sorely disappointed.

The look, the vibe the staff and of course the drinks. Everything fires on all cylinders. Adding cream to the top, they offer live music. Not just any music, but quality.

When i showed them my home bar, they immediately collected items to add to my fun. Check them out in the pic section. We just cannot say enough about this Pub. It is always the first one we go to when we get to London and the ONLY one we go to everyday are there. GO GO GO.........You will NOT regret it.
