Once upon a time this was probably the world's (well London, anyway) only Cornish theme pub, now it has a sister pub on the King's Road. Like that one, this pub sells Cornish ale from the St. Austell Brewery and delicious (and good value) pasties from an impressively large menu. The chairs are comfortable and the balcony is great to watch the "entertainers" below. It is, however, a little let down by cramped toilets and Europop on the jukebox, but it's still 10,000 times better than the place opposite.

Recently visited this place after a 6 month gap. Still serving good quality St Austal and Skinners Ale but at £3.70 a pint not goo dvalue anymore. The large traditional pasty from downstairs was nearly a fiver!!!
only one comment, so far on this pub - why not add your own?
