A great little pub in the heart of London, but please note that it does not have an outside area like shown in the picture. The picture is an old photo that Google for some reason will not remove. You can sit inside with a view over the water and the staff there are very pleasant and helpful. I visited on a Wednesday afternoon and it was not busy at all. Well worth a visit.

My friends and I had a great time playing pool downstairs. Just remember to bring some cash. It’s only £1 per game.
