The mental image conjured up by St. John's Wood might well consist of elegant Georgian houses, upmarket boutiques and ladies who lunch. But in a rare moment of light relief only minutes away from this potential Richard Curtis film location, lies the New Inn. Sitting at the edge of a perfectly nice council estate, anywhere else this would be described as a stripped-out affair. Here, however, monikers aren't needed; its simply a very good pub. The predominantly older locals, all looking unusually dressed-up, clearly didn't mind us interlopers in their pub. So while we sat, eating our rather good food, we listened to the excellent live over 60s blues band 'George & Friends' and looked around us; there was laughing, joking and chatting - all friendly and genuine. Did we find the New Inn on an unusually good day? Maybe, but we wish more pubs were like this.

Perfect place for a pint and food. Great set menu as well as tapas and a la carte. Dog friendly and my favourite local. Often in for the live music and Sunda roast
