Samuel Smith's pub in [[Locale Marylebone|Marylebone]].

This is a spacious pub with several rooms and a small beer garden smoking area out the back, set just behind Portland Place in [[Locale Marylebone|Marylebone]], done out in the traditional style favoured by Sam Smith's.

The drinks available are the standard range, though they have the Old Brewery Bitter on hand-pulled pumps. Service is good, and the publican was perfectly friendly and approachable.

Food is served noon-2pm, and 6-8:30pm in the evenings according to a board in the pub as of February 2008, a fairly basic range. [[Ewan]] tried the vegetarian pie (one of only a few vegetarian options), which was advertised as coming with chips. It was brought out with mash, which the publican picked up on and offered to bring out a bowl of chips for no additional cost, which he did. As it was, the pie went better with the mash, and although the crust was a bit dry, it was still tasty. The chips which came out (and which were served with my companion's sausage, beans and chips) were clearly hand-cut from a potato, and what they lacked in crispiness they made up for in being fresh.

[[Bec]] had the egg mayo baguette for &pound;3.25 which was excellent value for money. The baguette was toasted and the egg mayo wasn't overly mayo-y. I also had a side of onion rings for &pound;1.75 which were greasy and fatty and utterly delicious. Ideal for lunches, I should think.
