Tucked away on the brilliant and unexpected Lower Marsh to one side of Waterloo Station is this place, which you could walk past and miss quite easily. Although small on frontage it’s quite big inside and there’s a surprising, secluded beer garden out the back if it’s sunny.
The drinks are quite usual, with some ales and a selection of wines and spirits, and the food is good but pricey. I prefer to find a spot in the upstairs room which has sofas and is much more relaxing than the thin, barn-like downstairs bar. If you’re a reader there are loads of free books here too, part of the Bookcrossing project.
Not bad at all, you could do much worse in the area, but it can get busy after work and if they are showing the footie.

A nice pub with a cracking outdoor seating area. We staggered in here last night after a bit of knitting just down the road (I know, I know). At first site, the pub doesn’t look like it would have real-ale on. But fear not! They were well stock and had some interesting ciders knocking about too. We sat at out on the patio for about an hour last night which was very nice given the heat. Staff were friendly and efficient. Must come back and try the food!

I love this place. Been holding the regular London Bloggers meetup here since November last year but we’ve had to move on as the function room isn’t wheelchair friendly.
None the less, it has a great bar, good food at reasonable prices and a good outdoor patio for you smokers (and everyone else in the summer). Add all that to the fact is it hidden away behind Waterloo means you can normally get a seat and served fairly quickly.

I don’t mind this pub at all. I don’t think I’ve spent enough itme there and as I too was at the bloggers meet-up, I don’t think I got to experience it full. A return trip may be in order.
The things I did notice? The food looked great and I should have eaten some.
The bar is also very tall. I find this strange. But It feels about 6 inches higher than it should be. I’m apparently pretty short so I could not have stood at the bar comfortably with my rather enjoyable pint.
It’s the strangest thing I’ve ever had to say about a pub.
