picture of Walkers Wine and Ale Bar
Walkers is a hidden away place a stones throw from Trafalgar Square which, overshadowed by the tourist-attracting Sliver Cross just in front, predominantly attracts the afterwork crowd. There's also more space than you'd give credit for on first sight, with a bar on the ground floor plus two more basement levels full of nooks and crannies to hide away in. There's naturally a considerable wine list and the ales they offer are usually well kept. Although this place benefited from the smoking ban, the basement bars still suffer terribly from a lack of ventilation and it can get very humid and sweaty the busy times. Unremarkable but competent.

Terrible service and truly stupid staff. My order of fish and chips arrived 15 minutes after that of my companion and it was horrible. I gave it back to the two men behind the bar and they didn't even apologise.
only one comment, so far on this pub - why not add your own?
