One of the best pints of Guinness outside of Ireland. They do a really good hot sandwich as well, beef, ham etc. old school pub inside which can get really busy but for good reasons with a good outside bit to stand and people watch. Do not walk past this pub without stopping for a pint.

This is the beer restaurant I went to for the second time after eating a lot of dinner. The good thing about this place is that they only sell alcohol and no snacks. The Guinness beer is completely different from the one I had in Korea. It's really soft... I tend to drink a lot of Asahi beer. The Guinness beer I had in London was the best. And I ate one because it was recommended. This is delicious too. The staff is friendly. Please take away the empty beer glasses.

Said by many to be the finest pint in London Town. Is it? It's not far off. Barstaff are amazing and pint specialists. The pub itself is lovely too. I'm visiting every Irish pub on earth, and the Coach and Horses is rightly amongst the finest

I came here for the Guinness like everyone else. How does the Guinness compare I hear you say.. well, it was really good. I can’t say if it’s the best I’ve had outside of St James Gate but I had a few so it’s not bad. The Guinness is poured well, the glasses spotless and a good head on it. It’s definitely one of the best looking pints of Guinness I’ve had. Was just about £6.60 for a pint of Guinness It’s a very popular pub (inside and out) so you may have to push your way to the bar but the staff were friendly and the atmosphere was good. I will come back next time I’m up in London.

🚇Covent Garden 🍺 £5.80 Amstel ❤️ A welcoming family run Freehouse. . The Coach & Horses is located opposite the Royal Opera House in a quiet side street on the edge of Covent Garden. The nearest Tube is Covent Garden which is a four minute walk away. . The pub dates back to the 1730’s, the current building was built in the early 19th century. This pub has been run by the same Irish family for the last forty years. . This is a cosy one bar boozer that feels welcoming and homely. The servery is situated on the left hand side and has a sturdy solid dark wood counter. The bar area seating is all stools and poser tables which works well in this busy little pub. The pale green walls are adorned with photos of pub celebrations, claims to fame and black and white scenes of times gone by. This pub boasts a red carpet, the cornerstone of any top London boozer. . The beer selection was good and included lots of familiar favourites, two cask ales and of course Guinness. The Guinness here is well celebrated, so much so that The Irish Post once voted the Guinness here as the best in Britain. If you are partial to a short, there are over 70 Irish whiskeys and gins plus Scottish whiskies too. I was on the lager all day so I decided on an Amstel, my pint was excellent, well kept and price point was average. The food is basically sandwiches – but what excellent sandwiches they are. Hot sausages, salt beef, roast beef and baked ham are all served on your choice of bread with gherkins and crisps on the side. . We arrived just after 4pm on a Saturday afternoon and the place was absolutely heaving. The atmosphere here was superb, the vibe was upbeat and buzzy. The crowd was a mix from all walks of life, the pub was as busy outside as in. The service was efficient, the team here were very much on the ball. . The Coach & Horses is one of the most hospitable pubs you’ll find anywhere around Central London, this is a must visit London pub. . ℹ️ Info correct on visiting 29.04.23

Have been drinking in this pub for a long time, its a proper traditional pub with a mixture of locals & non locals.

Being a fellow irishman myself, from Galway, i was delighted to see it headlined.. best pint of Guinness, irish theme etc.. maybe a little piece of home. Definitely not the case, it might be owned by Irish people and have irish memorabilia but I was absolutely disgusted by the way a couple was treated, usually if a song breaks out in an IRISH pub, everyone joins in, especially if it's "Happy Birthday" but NO, not here, they were approached by staff, told to be quiet, refused drinks and escorted by security to leave, not only did the people in question apologise and leave without provocation, they were refused an honest explanation, I later found out the men were military personnel and the women nurse's, (well manored, decent, hardworking professionals) who dedicate their lives in protecting and caring for their country and its citizens, maybe because the women were Asian and the men of irish parent's, "a question of racism" . I would also like to point out that the Guinness was dreadful, glass was clean with no tide marks and quickly turned sour with brown appearance, if the Irish Post proclaimed this as the best pint in London then someone was paid a pretty penny to announce it, clear lies, falsely advertised, biased and should not by all means mention IRISH, this is not our way, if you like to have the craic and enjoy porter avoid this place like the plague.

I was told this was the best place to drink Guinness in London but TBH I had better from Waterloo earlier within the evening. As this pub was supposedly the Irish rendezvous for crac and banter, it was my friend's birthday, as you do we as a group of 4 decided to sing Happy birthday to cement a joyous occasion. However the young bar staff behind told our group to keep the noise down. I will be honest we were having fun and the volume was raised but not to the point of putting any other customers off. For god's sake its a pub, what do you expect. The bar staff refused to serve me when I approached to buy a round and when I asked the bar staff why? there response was complete ignorance. When I explained to them I feel offended that they were categorising me as a nobody there continued to ignore. To summarize, this isn't the best location in London for a Guinness it's another pitstop for your suited up worker to drown his figgures into a pint and jump onto adultworks to smash a brass with a semi. No need to take your friends and family for a birthday here as it's full of boring wannabe toffs and simpletons who have nothing good to say or do

Not a great experience. Courtyard dining was nice given the weather and the food was reasonably priced if a little underwhelming. Service was a major let down. There were a handful of guests and the service team were slow to acknowledge us both upon arrival in the hotel and beyond. We were charged when placing the order, which is perfectly fine until we realised we were the only ones that had been charged upfront. Not sure of the rationale and probably wouldn't have been bothered until we were asked to pay again when leaving. For clarity, this was a business lunch and both of us were suited, not exactly looking the part to run off. Would have been happy for them to have approached and simply ask of we had paid rather than have someone ask from across the courtyard. Drinks arrived late, but to be fair food was served on time. Fortunately the company and conversation made up for a poor showing from the restaurant.

Burnt Sunday roast - what a joke! Underhand tactics.. must be desperate. Last time I gave a 5 star review - despite poor service. This time it’s down to two stars. Service was better and maybe too much in your face… however the food quality and set up has gone down. There are far less people coming because of this. The steaks are poached and then grilled - you see this. Food was above average but not for high end standards. Drinks were inconsistent- small glass mocktails full of ice. Duck salad cold and full of fat. Margarita pizza with ricotta cheese, etc,etc
