Great place to hang out with some old friends, drink some beers and talk about the past. I loved the atmosphere of Ye Olde Mitre - calm, welcoming and the wooden decor makes you feel like you are back in time. Make sure you visit it at least once.

Blink and you'll miss it. Would have never found this pub If I hadn't been taken here by a friend of mine.  A lot of history is hidden inside this pub - I felt like I was traveling back in time. Excellent service, foods and drinks. Definitely one of my favorite pubs in London.

Review of Ye Olde Mitre from 7 February 2013
I came here with 4 others on a busy Fri night. It was of course packed inside and out, but luckily a large party just departed from the Bishops Room upstairs so we climbed the winding staircase, grabbed a table and ordered a pint. Added bonus, prompt tableside service. Highly recommend. Just be aware that the upstairs is HOT, as in furnace hot, not drop-it-like-it's-hot.

Review of Ye Olde Mitre from 6 January 2013
Ye Olde Mitre is my favorite pub in London and its old. Originally from 1546. Its hidden down an alley in Ely Court. It's been recently bought by Fullers and so becomes a chain like every other pub in London, but it still keeps it's charm and age and will always have a spot in my heart. You can get small bites to eat here and if you're lucky can sit in the private room or in one of the well worn wooden chairs. Amazing atmosphere, good range of Fullers ales, and a great place to visit the past from.

A great place to visit but be there early as the place seems to get packed soon. Known for its toast, so try it whenever there.

As soon as you enter the pub you could imagine you're in Old London. Everything there remind of it - the wooden furniture, the vintage decoration and even the absent of  music. It's really relaxing to go there after work and spend time with friends.

Here's another five-stars for Ye Olde Mitre.  Thoroughly enjoyed myself there, it's a place rich in history. It's true it gets crowded, but you have just have to be quick to grab a seat when one opens up. It's a good place for drink and happy chat. Good ales as well. Will deffo be going back!  :D

    Nice to hear it has survived over the years. A few happy memories here, but such a long time ago!!

    Yeah, it’s still great! Maybe you’ll get a chance to go there again. That was my first visit, but surely not my last. :)

Review of Ye Olde Mitre from 25 May 2012
It gets crowded very quickly, it’s a good place to be if you don’t come during lunch ( the food is ok, they are known for their toasts ) or after 5pm. The wooden structure and the picturesque deco give this pub a traditional touch. It was built supposedly to serve the staff of the Bishop of Ely, who had his London residence adjacent. The residence was the setting for all sorts of history, including a five-day banquet for Henry VIII and Katherine of Aragon in 1531. The residence is long since gone, but the pub thankfully survives. It has several small rooms , wood panelled and covered with prints and pictures. An alleyway snakes around the building, which now provides space for the smokers.
The nearest stations are Farringdon and Chancery Lane.

A hidden treasure and long may it remain that way. Due to its size it gets remarkable packed so you need to pick your time well.

Brought some friends from Germany to introduce them to some decent pub culture. We had an excellent time at this charming little pub. Staff/food/drinks were great. Evening mission was accomplished!
