A legendary London beer pub in Covent Garden and CAMRA National Pub of the Year winner, known for its expertly-kept cask ales and characterful narrow interior that's barely changed in decades. Get a pint of their rotating cask selection and grab a spot upstairs or outside if the weather's good. Service can be brusque during busy lunch hours despite being efficient, so manage expectations if you hit peak times.
