A cosy little pub, with decent beer, across the road from the Theatre Royal Drury Lane. This does affect the place, as you get theatre patrons (and musicians) in before the show and at the interval, so be prepared for sudden influxes. It has an upstairs bar-restaurant which closes early but when not invaded by tourists or theatre types is quietly occupied by locals. Worth a look.
