Walking by you can tell this is the place to grab a beer and visit outside— always a crowd. Unfortunately for us, we wanted dinner and weren’t told to go to the counter and order food and then we got a surly waiter who didn’t care about giving good service. Our fish and chips and hamburger were good despite him!

Good place to go. We stopped in for a drink at the end of our night. Great music and lively. The bartender was very helpful. Would recommend.

A pleasant enough place, but nothing special here aside from an attractive exterior. We were here for Sunday lunch, which was very busy and crowded, but even amid that the interior of the pub seemed pretty ordinary. I gather that the Greene King pubs share a common menu, at least to a large extent. Somehow while I had the same meal at an affiliated pub a few days ago, it did not seem as good this time around. The beef pie was the same, with a reasonably flavorful filling and very tough crust, but the mashed potatoes were glutinous and barely edible, and mashed peas were somehow not available. A smallish portion of what was called crispy squid was tasty enough though hardly crisp. The best item on the menu was the cole slaw which may perhaps have been house-made. We liked the beers well enough, both the Abbott Ale and the Best Bitter. This is a pub where you order at the bar and your food reaches your table from a server. There is not really room in this system for exceptional service, but I have to say the staff were unusually friendly, caring and earnest. We are still searching for authentic pub food. This was not quite it.

Visited this pub after a visit to the museums. This is very close proximity to West Kensington station and also the museums and we decided to pop here due to this. The pub itself gives the “London pub” vibe and in a way is reasonably sized, however there is a seating area in the far right corner which clearly has too many tables in and almost comes across as “cluttered” and i feel your almost sitting on each others laps of the table next to you. At the time of the visit, it was busy mind. The pub also has access to the sports channels and it appeared many locals attended to watch the Cricket or whatever sport was on, which wasn’t too bad. Only one staff member appeared accommodating, who was the staff member at the door showing people to their tables otherwise the rest just walked around looking quite miserable. The food was quite disappointing and overcooked. It didn’t take too long to come however i had the BBQ chicken (similar to a hunters chicken) and the chicken was quite dry and overcooked and there was far too much cheese on it. This comment was echoed throughout the rest of my party who had the same meal. The menu did not really have a large selection to choose from but they do some sort of deal where its “Three small plates for £16” or similar which wasn’t too bad. We had to use the disabled toilet to change my child, however this was in a clear state of much needed decorating with chunks of the wall missing and generally just messy. This pub is also a “pet friendly” pub whereby Dogs can also come in. This was a one-off visit, probably wouldn’t go again but done the job whilst i was hungry and needing a drink.

Very close by the tube station, a big pub with two floors and catering for a lot of lunches and dinners. Green King are excellent at food and setting up pubs to suite the local environment and this is no different. Mainly tourists. Not an issue. But there not typical of an English pub although with all the history and looks it feels like it. Not cheap. Pint, coke and lemonade just short of £18. But lots of tables, very good service (including greeting on way in) and clean, tidy and well maintained.

Having totally shattered ourselves after an afternoon in the Natural History Museum, we were ready for rest and refreshment. Luckily, we chose the Hoop & Toy pub just a short walk away. We were not disappointed. It was busy, but we soon found a table tucked away in the corner. Great choices of beers and spirits (London prices). We chose traditional, delicious pie, mash and peas, and we're amazed how hard the staff all worked to serve the customers and clean the tables. One person in particular was constantly 'buzzing' around keeping everything in order. He looks like a young Al Pacino. His name is Vito and he is the manager of this typical London Pub. A nicer chap you could ever wish to meet. Great find. Great food. Great place to relax.

We have very bad experience here. Fish and chips was burned and soaked in oil. When I ask to exchange for new one (not burned and soaked in oil), waitress after few minutes brought the same dish back as a new one. He admitted chips was the same but fish was a new , which wasn't true. He took fish with anger and through back on a plate. After when I ask refund they give us a new dish. Avoid, avoid, avoid.

Visited here in Oct 2020 for a bite to eat after spending a whole day at the nearby V&A Museum. Greeted by a nice chap who explained clearly about the Covid requirements and how to order online via the app. We sat in a very pleasant area upstairs, a lot less rowdy than the downstairs bar area. Food arrived quickly after ordering from the app and was nice, standard pub grub. Much needed after a whole day of walking around a museum! A bit pricey but expected for the area. No complaints.

Visited as we were going to the Comedy Club upstairs so had a drink beforehand. BEWARE!! It was SO crowded it is almost impossible to shield your PIN as you put it in the machine, moments later after a minor distraction my purse had been swiped from my bag which was right by my feet....mopeds waiting outside the pub speed off to the nearest cashpoint....luckily I realised almost immediately and blocked transactions via my phone app. NO SIGNS UP warning about pickpockets. Emailed management the next day re the CCTV as advised by the barman but they have not even bothered acknowledging the email let alone offer any advice or assistance. SO BE CAREFUL!!!

We visited on a Monday lunchtime, which was not at all busy. After placing an order for four meals, one failed to be served. When this was queried, the staff did not apologise and no recompense was offered. The missing meal eventually turned up.

So this is the second time I have been here in a year. The food is good. I like the fish and chips, it is hard to mess it up in London these days. I spent about $100 here drinking and eating talking to local friends. I have to say Hoop's bartenders are not the friendliest Brit bartenders you see in London. I would describe Hoops bartender's service like San Francisco entitled bartenders (attitude), this not a compliment. Where they only serve locals first, and unless you speak up or step forward over the bar you will not get serve. At the end of the night I wanted to tip the bartender or buy him a drink, but why? There are so many pubs in London to bounce to.

Tuvimos un día ocupado visitando el Museo de Historia Natural y queríamos almorzar lejos de las multitudes del museo. El jueves estuvo bastante ocupado y con poco personal, aunque el personal era amable y tenía un ambiente agradable. Mi esposa tenía una carne de res con un pastel de vino tinto y verduras de temporada que estaba bien preparada y muy bien presentada y generosas porciones de verduras. Tenía a los cazadores de pollo, las únicas críticas fueron que podría haber habido más queso y salsa por lo demás bien cocidos y sabrosos. Al igual que con todos los pubs de Fullers no es el más barato, pero nos gustaría visitar de nuevo. Todo un lugar peculiar con divertidos refranes relacionados con la cerveza pintados en las paredes. Aunque no los visitamos, parecía que había dos salas para eventos, una en el piso de arriba, junto al baño y otra en el sótano. El exterior es atractivo con flores.

Went here for late lunch after visiting the V&A.; Yes the pub was packed but we managed to get a table. Both had the Hunters chicken which was tasty and cooked OK. They did run out of the wine we were drinking at the bar but went straight to the cellar for a bottle. Also ran out of glasses but we had two, they washed them out - to us no big problem. Staff friendly and didn't have to wait too long for our food. Only think is would have liked not to have to go up a flight of stairs for the loo as it is can be difficult for me.

I went to the bar to get drinks and queued with out fuss, when it came to my turn, the barman chose to serve a young female and her friend who had just walked in. I commented on this and he lady serving near where I was standing nodded apologetically at the same time another barman came out from the back, saw me waiting but chose to serve someone he knew again they only just walked in. Had I not been ordering food and been with a group of people I would have walked out. Really not made to feel like they wanted business on a plus the food was good.

My father and I came in hoping for a good pub meal. We both ordered the same and we had to wait a very long time for our meal. If we hadn’t of paid upfront, I would have walked out, but we were very hungry so persevered. By the time the food came, it wasn’t hot. Knowing the food hygiene standards that is followed at my setting for children, food should be probed 3 times, once when cooking, when dished up and when served, therefore there should be no excuse for the temperature of the food being so low! Before we sent it back, a family next to us also returned their food and refused to pay, nor did they decide to stay and left. We had to wait another while longer for the food to come back but when it did, it was much more hotter. Only one staff member was helpful and apologetic whereas another seemed to have no interest.

fue una hora de almuerzo muy concurrida y nos dijeron inicialmente (después de haber recibido nuestras bebidas - ¡sería una espera de 40 minutos para la comida! No me impresionó aunque decidimos pedir.

There are better pubs in the area. They did no have the drinks we wanted and it was early December before you might expect them to get really busy.

Un grupo de nosotros ha visitado regularmente durante años, tiempo durante el cual el ambiente y el servicio se han deteriorado. Está ocupado, ruidoso y sucio por las noches. La mayoría de las veces, el pub se queda sin muchas cervezas de barril y tiene pocos o ningún bocadillo disponible.

Very close to South Ken tube. Typical English old style pub. Seating/tables inside. Has television so can watch football. A selection of beers on tap. Pub food. I had a steak and red wine pub. Reasonably priced food. Toilets upstairs. No table service so have to order at bar. Busy, but not extremely busy. At first we were standing as no available tables, but after 30 mins we got one after other customers left. Overall not a bad place to meet with friends

Was clearly understaffed, no wine glasses when ordered wine and the whole place smelt like the urinals!

Este pub está casi siempre lleno de turistas y tipos suburbanos en su camino entre visitar los museos de South Kensington y la estación de metro.

Sono capitato per caso in questo pub, per fare un break dalle lunghe scarpinate...

Visitamos The Hoop and Toy cada vez que venimos a Londres. La comida y el servicio siempre es increíble. Obviamente, hay períodos de mucho trabajo y, a veces, hay que esperar un poco para obtener comida o para que los sirvan en el bar. Pero eso es lo que se espera de un pub tan centralizado. Un montón de lugares para sentarse, excelentes opciones de bebidas. También han comenzado a poner comedia en el piso de arriba, que es fabuloso. Ubicación perfecta si está visitando el Museo Nacional de Historia y hay muchas tiendas encantadoras y lugares de pastelería cerca. Sin duda volveremos!

For South Kensington it is not a nice pub. Can't say the crowd was impressive either. I was desperate for a drink so went in. The pub feels run down, not attractive at all, and it is also dirty. Keep it old fashioned but it needs a spruce up. I appreciate it is very busy but I saw a few flies around and staff should be advised not to take out the rubbish through the eating area whilst people are eating. I even saw the barman, seems like a nice chap, but he cleaned my glass with his shirt. I made sure i didn't visit the toilets there as I can imagine. It is not place you would go to for a night out.

Yes, at your own. Nice place full of youngsters, university people. Vibrant, full of life as expected. Kitchen close early, so after 8::30 pm, don’t expect to taste the burgers or the fish and chips. You have to order directly from bar, then sit. So, at your own!

For a pub in South Kensington (a tourist hub of London) on a Saturday night with one of the biggest, most looked forward to, boxing bouts of the year (Joshua Vs. Povetkin) on, the service was sub-par. 1 person was serving whilst the bar was 4 people deep from end to end for about 20 mins. Also, received a glass with lipstick marks around the rim (not the worst pub sin but just added to other problems).

So we were curious about this pub. Our hotel was diagonally across the street and every evening this place had people outside from being full inside. So we decided to give it a go on a Sunday. It was interesting, typical bar but had a full dinner menu you placed at bar. Bartender then brought you your food. Food was ok. Lots of tvs all had the World Cup on.

Came here to watch a football match that they advertised showing. All was well until i saw a mouse come out of the kitchen. The pubic hair in my pint glass was a bit more serious though. I complained to no avail. At that moment they also switched away from the football match even though there were 20mins left to play without reason. A truly horrible place. DO NOT GO HERE!

This pub isn’t offering what they are promising on their website, which is broadcasting football matches for EVERY ONE. 10 minutes before the match we were watching was finished (Champions League) the manager decided to switch to another match, a game of BRITISH football clubs. ‘This is a BRITISH pub, so we will watch BRITISH football’ was the first response why it was turned off. We asked politely to speak to the manager, but ‘the boss’ refused to come downstairs. The bartender instead was shouting even louder to us and a family with young children they were a BRITISH pub. In other words, this is no place for ‘foreigners’ Good luck, UKIP staff. I doubt if this almost sunken ship will survive this BREXIT wave. First get rid of the rats who are sailing this...

il pub inglese tradizionale è composto da un gran bancone con una serie di birre e cose da bere. le prendi, paghi e te le porti al tavolo. chi vuole mangiare in genere si arrangia con cose precotte, questo ha una buona offerta di cibo, fish & chips, pie ( pizze rustiche con ripieno di carne), hamburger, e altri piatti. si trova in una zona turistica , il prezzo è abbordabile e si mangia abbastanza bene , se siete amanti del ristopub all'italiana e non amate la birra non è il posto giusto

Aunque la fama de la cocina inglesa no es muy buena, en este pub encontramos comida realmente rica. El trato fue muy bueno y la sopa del día de lentejas y los pasteles de carne, deliciosos. Nosotros probamos el Steak and Ruddles Ale Pie y el Chicken and Roasted Woodland Mushroom Pie. Riquisimo...

Busqué activamente este restaurante con muchas esperanzas. A la pizza le faltaba sabor , las cuñas de romero tenían un precio muy superior a las 7 libras , creo que eran 8 así que casi 1 libras cada una . Izquierda agobiada
