Coach & Horses

My friend who went to Guinness brewery said the Guinness here is St. James Gate level of quality. I have to take his word for it because I've never been to Ireland. The young bartender ladies was lovely but I didn't have a chance to try the food here because the kitchen is closed on Sunday.

We came here because of the proximity to our hotel and the high stars. We didn't have a reservation but they were gracious enough to seat us anyway. Upon first entering the beautiful decor strikes you. The bold and beautiful artwork is very striking. The server was friendly and delightful. We had some signature tequila drinks that were delicious. We started with Mexican street corn which was delightful. For mains I had pork cuchinetta while my partner had cerviche.minevwas fantastic, while my partner was a little disappointed feeling that the flavors were not forward enough. We didn't have dessert being the portions were large. I recommend coming here if you're in the area just don't order the fish. Everything else about the restaurant is worth the visit.

What a great pint! 10/10 We just stopped on the off chance not seeing the reviews before.. and honestly up there with the Devonshire! One of the best pints I have had in the uk.

Best Guinness in London. Tried Guinness in multiple pubs in London over the past few years and this establishment consistently pours the best Guinness in London. Definitely a must visit pub if you enjoy Guinness.

Great pint of Guinness and Sandwiches made at the bar.

Ali and hema were GREAT! Saturday nights can be tough, yet both of them were wonderful, warm, professional, and kind. They turned what could have been a challenge into a lovely experience, and I’m truly grateful to them both.

I was on the lager all day so I decided on an Amstel, my pint was excellent, well kept and price point was average. The food is basically sandwiches – but what excellent sandwiches they are.

A place to go if you're near Covent Garden Garden!! A good selection of beers, including London Pride as well as friendly staff. A nice design with lots of old pictures of things such as sports etc.

I loved the art and feel of this bar! The service was great and everyone was so friendly. I didn't get food but I got a drink and it was made perfect.

Nice local pub that serves ice cold Guinness. Appears to be an Irish Pub than an English Pub but we ducked in to get out of the rain and what better excuse do you need to have a pint of beer. Bartender was friendly, prices were reasonable, clean establishment and food appeared to be delicious. Next time I'm in town I'll spend more time to enjoy it all.

I've been to Ireland, and the Guinness served in this pub is on par with the pints I've had in Cork and Dublin. Great traditional pub decor. If you've been to any London pub, you'll know what I mean. Lots of locals and theater-goers. Not too many tourists, at least I didn't hear any American accents. Pretty loud during the pre-show hour. There is a TV, but people were generally just chatting. Bartender was affable and suggested other ales to try. You should travel to London and hit all the pubs. It's fun being international, like me. Aye, mate.

Unpretentious Irish pub round the back of the London Transport Museum. Two ales on when I visited, Courage and Spitfire. The food looked good although I didn't eat there. The landlord was friendly enough although he appeared distracted by the Scottish Grand National which was showing on the TV. Clientele appears to be a mixture of tourists and regulars although there isn't room for large groups. Good place to escape the crowds of Covent Garden.

Great Pub on Wellington! Nice selection of beers and great selection of whiskey's! If you are tired from walking around or if you want to grab an afterwork drink with your friends and colleagues to unwind, or if you are up waiting for a theatre performance or show, this is a nice place to kill some time! Lots of restaurants around as well to go to afterwards for a nice dinner!

Traditional (not a plasticated) Irish pub with a surprisingly 'local' feeling for this part of the world. Handy for theatres, the opera and a short walk from the piazza and the markets. Used to have the best Guinness in town (had Liffey Guinness from Dublin imported, but they all do now). Plenty of interesting characters frequent this place (some a bit too 'interesting' for comfort). A good mix of Londoners, theatre goers and not too many tourists.

Nice, if typical, pub near Covent Garden. It's quite touristy and crowded but you could do a lot worse.

Nice pub. Pretty small inside but it's cosy and a break from the norm touristy places aka bars that might be more inward. In fact it feels like a soho pub which is nice as we are right by Covent Garden. Pint was cheap too. About £3.40 I think. Stood outside to watch the world rush by. All good.

Lovely wee pub, stopped for refreshment as the Girls were on a Day Out in the Big City, on the way to Theatre Royal, Drury Lane for 42nd Street the Musical. Made to look bigger than it is due to the large mirrors. The Irish man behind the bar was excellent, serving I think locals, asked me what I would like, at one point I thought he had forgotten me, as he asked another customer what they were after, however if just started pouring our drinks. Fairly busy, but this maybe due the 6 Nations, England & Wales playing at Twickers.

Got to be one of the best locals in London. Great staff and beer - especially Guiness. A must to try for their lunchtime rolls - hot salt beef and limerick ham is outstanding. Dom Perrion champagne only £90 and house is only 20 or 25.

Great whiskey selection and reasonably priced. Cozy environment, but a small space. Still everyone was friendly, good place to avoid the London weather for a drink or a few.

Great pub - Irish but English if you know what I mean! It is a must for any Irish visiting London. Marcus - an Daingean

I call in at this pub every time I come across to England to visit the relatives. Great little pub. Not touristy. The food offering (primarily hot sandwiches) is limited but excellent - especially the salt beef sandwich. Thoroughly recommended.
