Lovely pub in Covent Garden! Amazing for sports, food and drinks! I don’t usually leave reviews but this place calls for one! Me and my family came in for some lunch as we’re visiting London for the week and was served by a lovely lady called Jade! My Husband got to watch the footie and she was very attentive keeping us topped up with drinks and service with a beautiful smile! She really made our time special in this beautiful pub!
