Excellent little traditional pub on Poland Street in Soho.

There's nothing particularly surprising or unusual here, just a well-kept characterful old pub room with wooden fittings, historical photos, and small but comfortable tables. There's a TV showing horse racing and the like, but it's easy to avoid and not loud at all. It can get busy, but after work on a Tuesday wasn't too crowded. On a Friday evening in late Summer, the outdoor street was crammed with people, but inside there was still some seating available. Numbers die down later in the evening as people move on to the clubs.

They appear to have an upstairs room, and there are signs advertising that it is bookable, though it rarely appears to be open.

On a visit in June 2008, the ales on pump were London Pride, Shepherd Neame Spitfire (both £3.10/pint) and Greene King IPA (£2.90/pint).

There are filled rolls available behind the bar.
