This is a nice looking Victorian pub, in the eating and drinking area centred around the junction of Great Titchfield Street and Langham Street. It serves the usual Sam Smith's fare (a bonus for some, a bane for others) and basically just gets on with the job. The walls are decorated with BBC related memorabilia as it's just round the corner from Broadcasting House. The whole area tends to get mobbed on Friday nights with workers from the local offices (mostly rag-trade and publishing) so it's not an area for a quiet drink at those times - but few places round here are. For the rest of the time however, it's a pretty peaceful place.
