I have been coming to London for about 20 years and never ever tried a Guinness over here .... I stumbled across this pub by accident and it's a really good Irish bar. Great atmosphere ..The bar staff are really friendly and hospitable which made me stay longer than I intended. I unintentionally got talking to the owner who recommended the Guinness ..I'm so glad he did. I'm raging I found this gem of a pub on my last night but I found my new local when I come back.

Great pizza in a local pub. Traditional look and a rooftop bit at the top but it is small. Darts available and they show some games. Does get crowded, average london pricing.
