Very Rasist pub that does not take any notice of complaints made by very rude staff, same response on every complaint on this site. Clearly does not care about reviews ... customers as from what I can see on the reviews here n nothing has changed. This place is loosing so many customers. Really think they should monitor and train staff on how to treat their customers. And please don't respond with same message as it us insulting,

The pub is a 'more traditional' style which is delightful. The staff were incredibly kind, however the service was hit and miss due to how busy it was and also the fact like most of hospitality they seriously need more staff to deal with the demand. The food we ordered was tasty and ample, however it was not as hot as it should have been. I assume due to staffing issues in getting the food from the kitchen to the tables.

Having lived in London for 10 years, this has been the worst lunch experience I have ever had. We came in for lunch and waited over an hour for food. In an almost absolutely empty pub! (Would say at 50/60 % capacity). We ordered at 1.45 pm and only received the food past 3pm. When the food finally came, it came cold and one of burgers, you could kill someone with the patty given how hard it was. And only 4 out of 6 plates came. We had to wait 20 min for the other two and only after we complained did they magically appear. Incredibly unprofessional staff that just offered a "it is what it is" response and vague sorrys. Several other people complained on top of us.

Served by the most miserable and lethargic bar person (female) I’ve ever come across. Didn’t answer my question and was more interested in looking into her phone rather than actually serve the customer. Sad for the pub owner that this employee was so poor. Won’t bother spending my money here again.

The final pub on our short crawl: we enjoyed a pint of good Guinness as the place began its close down for the evening. Met some Austrian guys at the bar who we talked to for a while - a real melting pot! Nice pub, centrally located. I would return!

Waited patiently to get served, ignored by the only bar person who then made a point of serving someone who had just walked up to the bar.....the recent re-fit has left it devoid of atmosphere. Definitely a place for tourists

Me and my family came here for dinner yesterday, the atmosphere was amazing and the food was great, i’d definitely recommend! However the staff was not so great and could definitely do with an improvement , i was served by a lady at the bar with black hair and a gillet, she didn’t make us feel welcomed at all and she had a slight attitude which i don’t appreciate. Furthermore, the rest of the staff seemed quite moody.

Came here with the whole family while visiting for the England vs Ireland football match. Great sound on the tv and great picture. Really lovely barmen downstairs. Food and drinks were nice and large portions of the sandwiches were great. As we were there on a Sunday they had to close up earlier but the 2 chaps downstairs really made our night, as they let us play pool a little bit after our time, while they tidied so we could still have a few games. If we’re back in London we will definitely be back! Fair play lads and thanks again. Would recommend to all. Great atmosphere and great craic 🇮🇪

Exceptional Experience for Our Group Tour! We recently brought a large group from My London Corner to Ye Olde London, and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience! From the moment we arrived, the team was welcoming, incredibly kind, and truly went above and beyond to accommodate all of our needs. Despite the language barrier with some of our guests who didn’t speak English, the staff showed such patience and understanding, ensuring everyone felt comfortable and included. Every special request was handled with professionalism and a smile, making it clear that they genuinely cared about making our visit memorable. The food and drinks were top-notch, capturing the classic London pub experience perfectly. We’re thrilled to have found Ye Olde London and will definitely be returning for our future group trips. A huge thank you to the staff for their outstanding hospitality – you made our day so enjoyable! Highly recommended for any large group looking for a warm, accommodating pub in London.

This is a hidden gem near St Paul's cathedral. From the outside it looks like a small pub, but it has a large beautifully light and airy downstairs bar/dining area (with a pool table - something you don't see often in the City) It also has a beer garden off the downstairs area which is lovely and quiet considering it's in the heart of the city. Service was fantastic. Staff were quick to serve with a friendly attitude. The manager was particularly helpful when we asked for advice on drinks, also when we asked if football could be shown (big plus they have multiple screens) Menu has variety to suit most tastes. Food was served quickly, even though the pub was quite busy and was of excellent quality (also good to see staff check food was OK after we'd started - more like a restaurant than a pub) Would highly recommend and will definately be returning. Shame I can't give 6 stars, this one deserves it - they're definately doing something right.

This place is rubbish. Just finished such a bland meal, ordered steak sandwiches with chips and a pint of peroni each. £43 for flat beer, tasteless steak and stale bread. Two of the three ladies toilets were blocked and un-usable. The bar man was so rude and uninterested, didn’t even offer cutlery or napkins. Had to go over and ask for this which he just dumped at the end of the bar with a grunt. Zero atmosphere, no music playing just a constant beeping of an alarm. And never bothered to clear our plates, what a rubbish experience. This was our Saturday night out and meant to be a treat and it was utter rubbish. We aren’t tourists we live in London and expect a lot better. Would never, ever return. We didn’t even bother complaining because you could just tell by the attitude of the staff here that they don’t give a sh*t.

I absolutely love Ye Olde London, it’s my local and where my bestie and I frequent every Wednesday and sometimes Thursday evenings. The staff are always super friendly and proactive whereby as soon as they see us enter the bar, they’re already pouring our drinks. The new manager; Andreea is incredible and very attentive. Barry and Seb are a breath of fresh air and always make us feel welcome with their jovial, positive attitude. I’ve never been in a pub where it feels like family, a true home from home. I would highly recommend this place, the drinks selection is grand and the food delicious, you can’t go wrong. They’ve recently refurbished and the place is looking beautiful with the light wood, green painted walls, candle lit holders and a lovely garden. They’ve really spruced the place up and brought it up to date without losing the traditional feel. It’s definitely worth a visit!

Rushing around on Open House weekend and feeling very hungry spotted this place. (Unfortunately there was someone in the doorway blocking a sign more later) The staff were friendly and a lovely looking pub we were guided downstairs for lunch. The food was served promptly but was not as nice as it looks, the peas were definitely nuked, the mash moved in one lump and the pie had a nice filling but the crust was very hard and uneatable, Did not stay for deserts, It is a shame as the staff and premises were very warm and inviting, it was on the way out that I saw it was a Green King premise, sorry but the Pubs are usually very nice but the food is the same across the group.

What a Pub! Has better food and atmosphere over fancy restaurants back in Washington DC! Had a wonderful experience in London, and despite what anyone might have said, the food in London was the best part. Heck this pub has a chicken katsu burger with coriander! Blimey that’s what you call flavoUr! The atmosphere is hectic upstairs and quiet and reserved downstairs, but which is bloody perfection. The beer is solid (and it comes in pints). Give this place a go, she won’t disappoint!

A lovely restaurant in an area where you might expect to only find an average tourist experience. Dana our server found us nice corner place for lunch, clearly going through the gluten free options for my wife. I had a caesar salad with chicken, and my wife the beetroot salad, with fries and new potatoes. Both salads were well made with good quality ingredients and very tasty. A very pleasant lunch!

There seems to be a new place here now called the Victoria Food Hub? Very tasty food from Borneo and Malaysia. The service was so nice and accommodating. It's a shame that Google maps hasn't picked it up yet. We ordered a chicken wrap shawarma and fries. You could see that they were sliced potatoes. Absolutely recommended! We'll be back because it's a very good value for money and DELICIOUS😋
