Marquess of Anglesey Pub in City of London, Westminster

A great place for food and drink near Covent garden

Zack and sajan was so great and nice and kind

Mark H was amazing, no maybes just amazing service! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Marc H was just amazing! Incredible service and communication throughout 👍🏻

Normally the food is very good but something seemed to go horribly wrong with the kitchen this time because the main course was cold or at least not hot and the dessert pretty well inedible. The waiters were very apologetic and tried their best but it wasn't the pub's finest hour.

I came in recently just for drinks and was served by a lovely lady named Kadina. She made our whole night. The service was fast, drinks were great and fun conversation to go with it. Will be coming again.

The service from Kadina was absolutely amazing we had such a great experience as well as the really good food!!!

I came here early afternoon recently for a drink and a bit of food. When I arrived I ended up waiting a while to order my drink despite the pub/ bar not being too busy and when I finally got round to ordering the man (older, grey haired, short gentleman) behind the bar taking my order was rude and standoffish. When I asked if I could order food he told me in a very aggressive manner that they were not doing food until later with no reason given. An hour later I decided to order off the app instead of the bar and it showed some food options available so I ordered (just some chips). When it came the people serving it threw my food down onto the table with the same aggressiveness as before. I have since read some previous reviews and can see others have had similar issues with who I can only assume is the same man by the description. Do better Youngs and listen to your customers!!! Very disappointed.

Nyrom was fantastic and enthusiastic on a gloomy day with the kiddos in London. Good service when so hard to come by.

Nice gastropub , good food , friendly service.

Disappointed in the quality of the roast dinner. The roast beef was good but the potatoes dry and the accompanying veg lukewarm. The cauliflower and cheese was watery and had no cheese taste. Subpar roast overall.

We had a wonderful group lunch in the upstairs room and were looked after so well (thanks Mark you're amazing). The food was all class and we had a great time!

The Marquess bravely hosted a Xmas lunch for 44 of us in the 1st Floor dining room on 10/12 and it was absolutely superb. Food was excellent, service was friendly and fun and the roof top bar added the cherry on the cake. Massive thanks to Aidan and the team!

Only 2 bar staff for hundreds of customers! 25 minute wait to get a drink even if ordered online! Scuffy rude man served us! Expensive! Yes it’s Christmas but it’s the same time every year and busy so get more bar staff!! Will not be returning!

In October my girlfriend and I were on a tour from the US and had stopped in nearby Covent Garden. We hadn’t had fish and chips yet, so our local city guide recommended this place. The food and beer were excellent and the interior was so pretty. We sat on the second, wait no, the l first floor as they say in the UK. The waitress was really friendly. We each had the fish and chips and they were delicious

We always pop in fir for a drink here whenever we are in London.

Really loved this place, we were well looked after and the food was lovely.

Lovely views of the area from a balcony seat upstairs. Lovely modern pub atmosphere

I organised my work Christmas party here last night and it could not have been more perfect, what a super cosy lovely atmosphere. We hired the room on the 1st floor for 30 of us and pre-ordered a bunch of food and drink. Liaising with the venue was super smooth from start to end. - Food was really great (especially the scotch eggs) - Wine selection was spot on - Service was 10/10 thank you to Mark and lovely lady who looked after us all evening

Lovely view, incredible Sunday roast and felt very taken care of by Maria. Thank you!

Maria S and Mark H were great servers! Would come back again!

Nice pub , drinks are a little expensive but due to the area. Upstairs seating area is nice would come again

perfect for French customers !!

great place to eat something in peace with a typical London atmosphere Mark was kind with us

We always have a lovely time here. Wonderful staff and service.

A large pub in a popular area, serving a large range of drinks and food in a traditional setting and with decent staff. However the real selling point and unique aspect is the roof top terrace. It’s not a large space, and popular for private events, but if you are able to get out there it’s a real sun trap with great atmosphere and it’s own bar. The prices are pretty steep but for such a unique setting worth it. A favourite spot of mine in the area for a memorable drink.

Hi, Six years ago I gave you a three-start rating and now that I think about it and after visiting many more restaurants. I'm going to reconsider my rating and give you a five-start rating.

Excellent place facing Covent Garden. Service from Mark is top notch.

It's a pretty generic pub so nothing to write home about but had to write this review to say - WHY IS THE MUSIC SO LOUD!? It's not a bar, there's noone who is going there to dance, so why did they do that. The music was so loud that we had to shout at each other like you would at a club. I've never in my life been in this type of situation at any pub. And also not like the sound system was any good - nothing worse than trying to overcompensate for bad quality sound system by increasing the volume.

Stunning pub, get yourself upstairs to the terrace bar.

Staff were amazing Maisey and her team absolutely awesome

Lovely place just stopped in for a drink. Friendly bar staff nice pub

Not my type of food on menu. But a good pint of guiness staff pleasant and friendly

We were up from Bournemouth going to a show and I'd seen this pub on Instagram. It looked cool so booked for pre theatre dinner. We loved this pub The food was lovely piping hot and loads of it. Never seen Haddock and chips so huge!!! No room for puddings but we had coffees after. Lovely staff and a great experience

Tired legs needed a break, and the rest needed a drink! Nice place!

An extremely busy pub - we were fortunate to find a seat on a Saturday afternoon. The bar-server didn't know what a dry martini was, but I guess it isn't a drink that's currently fashionable so he could be forgiven I suppose.

Good food, quick service. Wonderful 👍

Great place, great food and fab service. Will return.

Great place! Lovely food and great atmosphere. Very friendly service and very reasonable priced. Will be revisiting 🍻🙂

Nadine is the most amazing new bartender:)

Me and my friend came in for a drink and had a great night. Nadine behind the bar welcomed us with a nice smiled and made sure we had everything we needed. I got the wrong drink from another bartender and she quickly sorted the issue. The space was clean but the music good be better tbh. Maybe some more rock and disco classics :)

Great little rooftop bar..use the door to the right for the staircase up. As you'd expect it gets busy. Prices not crazy. Pint of beer under £8 and bottle of Chablis less than £60

Visited on Sunday for lunch. First and foremost the ambiance on the first floor is absolutely lovely , the service is first class from the staff. The Sunday lunch was delicious, my partner and I chose devilled lambs kidney on sour dough to start followed by the most tender flavoursome beef and all the trimmings as main course both delicious meals were accompanied by a good red wine Our waitress Maria’s service was first class, from her delicious Negronis to her great customer service all of which makes a lovely combination! Maria is a credit to the pub so are all the other staff names I do not know. I think by this review you will definitely understand why we will definitely return very soon.

We are very pleased with the service in the pub especially with the kindness of Maria. The food was very tasty. The ambience also.

Kodina is the Bomb!! Food was fabulous, atmosphere amazing, and Kondina was the cherry on top!

Popped in for a drink while on a mooch. What an amazing place. It has about 4 floors. The roof terrace is fantastic. Don't walk past... Drury lane theatre right opposite. Staff excellent.

Food was good, drinks were good, but the grumpy old man who tends the bar… what a bloody pain. Not sure if he is grumpy and rude to all or just because we’re Asians! Would NOT go back!

Lovely pub! Great view, amazing food and good selection of wine 🙏 will definitely be back

Nice location, solid food with generous portions. My server was helpful too. I ordered the fish and chips. It’s a generous portion. The breading was perfect. I would definitely return. There were other options on the menu I’d love to try.

Great place for a drink with a friend

Classic pub on the ground floor and a pretty rooftop bar. Tasty food - we had bread, olives, croquettes, but the highlight were especially well priced and delicious Oysters! Fast and friendly service. Good drinks, pleasant atmosphere. The bathrooms sadly needed a lot of attention throughout the evening but got none. I would usually drop a star for that, luckily the rest of the experience was so good that I'll give them the benefit of the doubt as I'm planning to return, but won't be as nice the next time.

Food absolutely AMAZING! Highly recommend. We reserved a table, glad we did as extremely busy. Good service, comfortable surroundings, great location. You wont be disappointed.

Zach was fabulous, amazing drinks and service! Best espresso martinis in town!

We’ve been here twice now and hands down is the nicest pub I’ve ever been to in my life. Love the atmosphere and music. The music volume is great, not too loud that you have to shout but equally loud enough that you can have a good jam to it. Been here during the week and it is a little quieter but equally just as nice as on a Saturday when it is busier but lots of floors to find seating. Do wish they had old mout cider but still have rekorderlig. Free WiFi.

Staff were absolutely wonderful for our event, a special thank you to Maria, Zack, and Annie for hosting us. Wonderful pub with a great rooftop terrace.

Really lovely space to eat. Very good food and a decent wine list too. Better still, the service is spot on. If you're considering where to eat before or after a theatre performance this is a very safe bet and has something for everyone. Extra points to them for finding and emailing me my receipt, after I'd done my usual thing of being organised enough to keep it and disorganised enough to lose it on the way home..

Really bad service yesterday lunchtime at about 3:45 in the dining room upstairs. Had a waiter who was extremely rude and patronising. Male who was 35-40 There was however a lovely waitress who came to the rescue! She was about 25-30 and was much more help in a colourful jumper.

First time visiting. Great atmosphere. All ages from 20s to 50s+ Music to match 🎵🎶. Came after a meal out ; so didn't try the food.

Excellent pint of IPA. Tonic water glass cracked, but noted and replaced at speed.

The staff at the Marquess of Anglesey were brilliant. Really friendly and really accommodating. We come into London on a regular basis and will use the Marquess as our start point from now on. Thank you.

Zac was great, looked after a much larger group of us than planned. Good service and good drinks.

Booked the rooftop area for 8 friends - we were all coming from overseas so did not know what to expect - we had exceptional service and made to feel very welcome, along with beautiful views it was a great place to meet for pre drinks :)

Zak made our corporate universal event the. One to remember. Future corporate events will be booked here

Had a lovely time at the The Marquess of Anglesey this afternoon, great service all around. Tai, behind the bar, was very helpful and made some great drink recommendations!

My team and I had a beautiful summers evening on the rooftop terrace! Great location and the picantes were the best I have had in London for a long time.

One of our favourite pubs in London, always easy to get served and the ale on tap is good.

Operating times are incorrect, unwelcoming and making fun of you that the “bar is closed”. Serving friends though

A lamb shoulder was on the menu but got served a mince lamb, which is not the same thing. We weren't proposed the dessert menu and when we asked for one, staff mentioned it was too late as the kitchen was closed.

Horrible place to get a drink round there

We visited the roof terrace for drinks before dining on the first floor. Great atmosphere, service and food in a lovely pub. Special shout out to Zac and Maria for looking after us.

What a cute little roof top! Perfect cozy vibes! We had the pleasure to hangout by the bar with Zack. I got a gin drink that was delicious! Zack was such a great time!! Great bartender would def come back!!!

We didn’t eat but the rooftop terrace was lovely. Zac is a credit to the team, his service was amazing.

Came to the rooftop for some after work drinks, great service from Florence and Zac would definitely recommend popping in and having a look!

Good selection of beers and other drinks. Friendly service. Peroni is for sale on draft also. It's a large pub with 3 floors. We visited the pub several times. Each floor is good and has its bar. The top bar has a nice terrace with views. It does not serve Peroni. I had to descend the stairs - 62 of them to reach the lower floor where this beer is served. It's not a big deal, but for any of you who would like a Peroni, order it before you go up 62 stairs. The pub is clean, and the music on the small roof terrace was too loud to be able to converse without shouting!

Great place to come for pre theatre drinks. Had such a positive experience that we will be back!!

Great location. Super friendly staff. Lovely cocktails and atmosphere. We booked ahead so nice to know the table was wsiting for us.

Chicken Caesar is dry, boring and tasteless. Worst fish and chips we’ve ever eaten!! Paid £40 for these two dishes and wasn’t even worth £4

Nice little pub that surprisingly hasn't been overly busy during our last two visits and we have been able to find a table. Reasonable selection of beers on taps but don't have any darker ales or bitters so settled for a quite enjoyable IPA served by friendly staff. Prices are as expected for central London with a couple of decent beers hitting £14 approx. Will be back as clean, tidy, not extremely busy but lovely and convenient for restaurants etc

Enjoyed a smashing lunch. Will return again.

Great experience, especially with roof top terrace for drinks, then lunch on the 1st floor. Fantastic service, very friendly, welcoming, knowledgeable and professional, particularly from Maria

Roof terrace is a great space. Music a little loud as there are speakers in all corners, but a nice spot. I could create a tab as I booked a table, otherwise no tabs.

Food great. Our server, Kadina, was lovely. Can’t believe I haven’t been here before. Will go again for sure.

I was here on a work trip, traveling solo. I wound up stopping in for a few pints because I got thirsty. The bar was cool and the service staff was attentive. Oddly enough, most of the people "at" the bar weren't in it. They were on the sidewalk outside. They'd come in, order another round, then go back outside.

Very loud, very drafty, 0815 selection of drinks, dirty tables, a tourist trap. Self-service downstairs, on the roof terrace it blows you away.

Roof terrace amazing, proper sun trap! Ideal venue to meet up with friends, make sure you book though as can get busy when the weather is good!

Very cute place to have drink 🥰👌🏻

Oh dear, why does this place have such positive reviews? I was completely underwhelmed. The service was good. The location excellent. But loud piped music was annoying for a restaurant (not really a pub on the first floor). Worst of all was the food. It was really average and not cheap. I'll definitely not return.

Nice pub, great staff even when very busy

on the doorstep to Royal Opera House so pre theatre drinks here. bit of a tourist trap, and poor IPA choices for such a popular bar, and naturally very pricey !

Decent covent garden boozer. Can't make an old fashioned for love nor money, sadly.

Rohit is the best!!! Amazing customer Service amazing service is the best person I stayed and spent over £200 because of Rohit

Only had drinks but lovley pub nice pint of guinness staff were friendly and polite

A friend told me the roof terrace was good and we went there with another friend on a sunny lunchtime. It would have been pleasant but for the overloud music, which was ghastly! We each separately requested they turn the volume down. We were told that the manager liked it loud. It was impossible to chat. We couldn’t wait to get away. Horrid.

Great place for a Sunday lunch away from the crowds. Very good service.

It was a great evening Helpings are a bit on the smaller side But all lovely

Went in for a quick pint, absolutely spot on. 👌

We took place on the upper floor, which was comfortably not that crowded. All waiters were extremely nice and helpful - we had an issue with the food which was quickly sorted out. The veggie burger was very delicious, as well as the beer and the cider.

Good beer, very good vegetarian food and really competent and friendly staff

What a pity! Lovely outdoor terrace area at the top of this pub. Horrendously loud music. Asked the server to please turn down the music - no not possible. I note that others have made similar comments about the loud music. How come these guys don’t listen to customers. Didn’t have food. Just a pint.

Very disappointed with the service I received when I came today with my 2 year old. We (my friend of 1 baby and 1 3y/o) had just spent a day in the transport museum and was ready to take a moment to relax when I was met with hostility and a horrible attitude from the old boy behind the bar. At first I thought he was joking until another older male customer began to complain to me about my son playing. As a parent, I know when my son is being too much and loud. As a childcare professional I am also aware of signs and queues when a child especially of 2 years is overstimulated and frustrated. The argument with the customer was one thing, being a young single mum and dealing with the challenges of parenting alone but to have staff chime in and make me feel even smaller and helpless when all my 2 year old was doing to trigger the argument was roll down the ramp and shout “wee” which immediately I corrected him and told him to lower his voice. I am more upset that the prospect of an establishment that is meant to encourage customers and families, I am already vulnerable battling each parental struggle alone, I don’t appreciate my only and rare time to relax and enjoy a drink like normal adults do be ruined by the pressure of staff making me feel unwelcome as well as customers. I never write reviews, I am one to be empathetic and appreciate customer service may come from personal troubles but a grown man in a professional setting to make comments like he did and also join in on an argument between myself and another older male gentleman, it’s very upsetting. We shouldn’t be made to feel unwelcome just because we have children who are experiencing strong and overwhelming emotions, if anything I’m much more entitled to a drink than anybody else after tackling it. Very let down by this approach, staff should be aware of different circumstances and so children in general being a pub so close to the transport museum and open midday. I don’t add for sympathy but of empathies of how I feel, I am on my own, I am 22, I wanted to go for a quick drink before home like any other person. Just because my son was struggling with his emotions doesn’t make us any less of a customer than anybody else, I’m disgusted with how this man spoke to us/of us because my son who need I remind is 2 was behaving just as a 2 year old does. You never know if it would be enough to push a vulnerable over the edge as I was particularly distressed after.
