The main pub room downstairs is friendly and cosy, with fake bookcase in one corner (as well as some actual books along the windowsill), stone slab floor, and a small seating area. There are only three small tables serving the banquette seating under the front windows, as well as some high stools along the side opposite the bar, so it's difficult to get a seat if you go when it's busy.

On a Thursday evening after 6pm the place was completely packed both inside and outside, making it difficult to get to the bar. Even so, it doesn't seem too oppressive, and service remains friendly.

Upstairs there's a separate restaurant, which seats about 20-25. It used to specialise in pies (see <a href="http://london.randomness.org.uk/wiki.cgi?id=Newman_Arms%2C_W1T_1NG&version=8">older version of this page</a> for an assessment), but as of 2015 it's run by the Cornwall Project, who also do the food at the [[Adam And Eve, E9 6AS|Adam and Eve]] in Homerton.

A long-standing but tiny pub in Fitzrovia with plenty of literary connections, like a lot of the pubs in this area.

The main pub room downstairs is friendly and cosy, with fake bookcase in one corner (as well as some actual books along the windowsill), stone slab floor, and a small seating area. There are only three small tables serving the banquette seating under the front windows, as well as some high stools along the side opposite the bar, so it's difficult to get a seat if you go when it's busy.

On a Thursday evening after 6pm the place was completely packed both inside and outside, making it difficult to get to the bar. Even so, it doesn't seem too oppressive, and service remains friendly.

They have two handpulls, with London Pride (£3/pint) and Black Sheep Bitter on a November 2008 visit. There are also the usual lagers, as well as Stowford Press cider.

Upstairs there's a separate pie room, with an extensive range of pies on offer, including daily specials. However, Ewan hasn't sampled the food yet.
