picture of Dog and Duck
The Dog and Duck is a tiny, popular pub with a very well preserved ornate Victorian interior and it's well worth a visit at quiet times (mid-afternoon) to have a shufty. (Most of the time the place is pretty crowded, so it's hard to view the decor.) The beer's good - it is a Nicholson's after all - with a good range of well-kept ales on the hand pumps and there's a pretty decent wine list. There's food too with the sausage sarnies particularly recommended. The crowds are generally convivial, adding to the atmosphere, and if it gets too much for you, there's a little relief if you pop upstairs to the George Orwell room (he used to drink here. One of the better places in Soho for a pint.
