Rack and Tenter in City of London, Westminster

Legendary spot for a few casual pints on Friday or Thursday night to celebrate a hard weeks work

Great place for an after-work drink - will sorely be missed now it’s closed for good.

OMG so sorry to hear you have closed, been going there for 15 years and had so many good times there

Sadly about to close. I don't know why. But a great pub for after work meet ups. Sad day next week.

Always packed so getting drinks is an utter pain. However, friendly staff though and their sharer platters are tasty. Unfortunately we have lost this gem permanently now as the place has closed. Such a shame

Vibrant, good value for drinks and good fun later on Thurs/Fri. A bit rough, but in a good way; better than it looks. Will be a shame if it is forced to close through redevelopment.

Very good food (it was a simple fish and chips but the fish was very fresh) and above all the service was amazing and we were always served with a smile.

Food and service was very good, staff very friendly and helpful and overall experience was very good. We will be coming back :-)

Great service from Giuseppe, professional and kind

Love this place, been coming here for 12 years. The beer is great and the staff are knowledgeable and friendly, special mention to Iona.

Gullo's service was great, nice guy

gullo is a really good bartender, polite and helpful 5 stars just for him

The Guy with a irokez I think his name is Gullo is so friendly and as a bartender is doing his job Amazing. Thanks for Nice service

Great pub! Gullo is my go to person and always takes care of me and my friends! Food is also amazing!

It’s a great place to grab a drink with kind staff and a good selection of food and drink. I had a great experience

Love this place! Gullo does it great 👍🏽

Awesome pub, anyone working near Waterloo has to visit after work

We stopped in for a few drinks and had fish&chips as well, our bartender Giuseppe was a hoot, great guy, loved his accent, 😀!! Always cordial to us. Will certainly be back

I loved the place and all because of the excellent service and kindness of the bartender Giuseppe Gullo, I would return without hesitation, I had an excellent time! Always try to have employees this good, it will bring you many benefits!🤩 Congratulations!!!🙌🏻

We were serve by Gullo, he was very nice.

Great service and team. Always feel welcome.

Pepe is a an amazing barman. Always knows my order amd always very conversational and friendly, and what a great bunch of people working here. Always make you feel welcome, they remember your name and they remember what you drink. Tom, Byron, Peppe, Eva (who remembers very big orders), Michelle, Iona and the other lovely people I have not learnt the name of yet are the best bar staff in Central London :)

Michelle served me and provided excellent service. Thank you Michelle!

Great place, so sad to see it closing down. Michelle is Awesome!

I got served by Liberty on a busy Thursday and she was amazing and very attentive. Great place to have a pint or two ;)

Michelle and Liby are my favourite at The Rack, best jegerbombs served and laways make you feel welcomed and appreciated. Great city spot definitely recommend it

Fab night at the Rack! Iva always goes out of her way to make us feel welcome and looked after!

So sad it's closing forever on April 6th, 2023.

Large spacious pub right on Moorgate. The Gravity is a good pint

Excellent place for after work drinks. Nice outside terrace. Pretty decent atmosphere inside. Proper pub experience.

Good vibes and nice people! Mihir was the best!

Superb location and accessibility! The food and drinks are also impeccable.The various areas of the bar are well organised and comfortable. I enjoyed the enthusiastic and friendly service from Mihir and it was always a pleasure to chat with their staff ;)

Fantastic food and service, our server Tom made the experience extraordinary!

Laura made us feel so welcomed. The food was great and the drinks as well. Definitely will return on my next office trip here.

Had a spiced rum and coke.. they were heavy on the rum 👍🏾

Nice atmosphere. Nice outdoor area, even though it was so cold. Friendly staff 😊

Good beer and excellent food. 👌

Nice atmosphere, great staff, nice food

Tom, Laura and the gang were kind enough to fit us in for a work team Xmas lunch at rather short notice this year. It was all handled very efficiently with food pre-ordered and a beautifully decorated table. The food was as good as ever, service was smart and the whole gig very reasonably priced; restaurant level experience for pub prices; who could argue with that in the City?

Tasty pub food. Conveniently located near the Moorgate Station. At Wednesday 1pm, they kindly provide a dedicated room for a Christian lunch time talk for workers around to listen to a short talk from the Bible while enjoying some nice food.

Busy, buzzy pub. Loo from the 70s though and built in a small closet to serve 100 beer drinkers.

My bartender was passionate about her craft and very kind and welcoming she goes to great lengths to please her customers

A revisit after many years. Not how I remember. Now a bright pub with a nice selection of beer

Not the prettiest pub you'll ever visit but it's spacious with a good range of beer and plentiful staff so you don't wait ages. Great in summer because of the large area outside where you can drink.

Great spot for after work drinks. Find myself there at least once week! Staff are always very friendly and accommodating. Good selection of beers on tap and rotating cask ales. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely place with good vibes and music. The staff that attended us where attentive and friendly, special thanks for Peppe who treated us with his best smile and attitude.

We booked a table for England v Czech Republic match and were delighted to be placed near to the TV screen. Good atmosphere, friendly staff and quick service. Would return.

Professional skills, good management, all the time looking after customer ,performance, permanent perform of consumer principles,, pacta sun servant,,

Bar staff friendly as always and a lovely place to have a pint

Pints by Pepe are expertly poured. Makes this a perfect after work haunt. The whole team are attentive and full of character.

Great outside space, great service from Pepe, great cheesy chips

Had a great Friday night drink after work but discovered there were food and drink on our tab which were not ordered by us. Popped in a week later and Giuseppe kindly sorted out our bill and gave us a few rounds of drinks to make up for mistake. Restored my faith in fair business sense and would definitely return for food and drink again.

Very accommodating and supportive at the recent Beerathon. Hard working staff and the managers even joined in with post 'race' celebration. Look forward to returning next year!

Really lovely staff, get for events

Good service nice staff good food nice place

The team were very accommodating and helpful. Food and drinks brought out to time. Can't fault the service. Thanks for making the evening go well!

Good for after-work drinks. A satisfactory enough watering hole without being classy or outstanding in any way. Has a reasonable range of wines and bar snacks. An outside drinking area with good views looking on to a city square.

Very busy bar, as it was a hot summer evening, average price for beer around this part of London, staff were friendly and provided a very efficient service

The Rack is a great place to go for a bev with good prices. It’s got a great beer garden worthy of hanging in the Louvre. Saskia (not me a different one) is also very lovely and cute.

Great pub location in City Point. Came on a Monday afternoon for a few drinks. The staff were extremely excellent and helpful. Thank you for your friendliness. Drinks and cocktails prepared to perfection and at a good price. Weird smell sometimes outside because of the drains. Still a good bar on offer and food too. Check out my profile for more pub reviews

Very efficient service with Peppe and Laura, all with a great smile and always very helpful 👍

Great location, selection of indoor and outdoor is very handy, lovely staff. Relaxing atmosphere.

Good knowledgeable bar staff. Excellent indoor and outdoor seating and good food. Great anytime of the day or night

This is a class old school after work pints boozer right in the city.

Good bar to have a few after work drinks. Full of the suited London after work crowd you'd imagine, but not unreasonable for drinks prices. Decent outside courtyard space to drink as well.

It's alright for lunch Major plus for seating options, inside and outside and for the staff friendly and fun, albeit it took a little effort to get help initially The chicken salad was OK more like 2 star - chicken well done, a bunch of lettuce, some sparse pieces of bacon, and a ton of ceasar dressing!

Rack is my home away from home. We love Laura she is our absolute favourite she is a ray of sunshine

Excellent service. Laura is the most friendly, welcoming bar staff ever.

Brilliant service. Laura was fantastic, really helpful and

Always outstanding, many Thanks to Laura for the service and the profesionalism

The best place. Great food. The staff is amazing but Laura is a legend. Definitly i will be back.

Amazing place. Great stuff. Laura is a star !!

I hqve been served by pepe the one with the crest, the one and only pepe, he has always been il migliore

good bar to hang out with friends, excellent service from Giuseppe Gullo, see you soon A thank you to all the staff for the excellent service but always special thanks to the great Giuseppe Gullo!!

Tom (I think), the manager, runs a tight ship at The Rack. He has in place a very friendly and observant team front of house, and every time I’ve eaten there - food has been great….even had a couple of ‘team’ Xmas parties out the back which have been greatly received. All in all, I don’t think there’s many pubs in The City with a warmer welcome than The Rack. Keep up the excellent work.

Wonderful service, outstanding food, just a warm welcoming atmosphere. If you have never been, make the trip!

This place is more than a simple place. The quality of the food along with an affordable price and the service from Laura Puscas, made me come back to this place and give it a grade of 10, a well-deserved review. Laura is always smiling and always ready to cheer up even the most capricious or angry customers by bringing smiles on their face.😇🙏♥️

We’ve been there for a quick bit with a friend.Laura was our waitress she was great. The food was great For sure we will come back

Love this pub and the staff. Always friendly. Work their arses off to get to you and always on top of the queue. Great selection of drinks too. What more could you ask for?

Fantastic city pub, it was my regular watering hole when I worked next door, but I still make sure to visit if I'm in the area. The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming. I would highly recommend if you are in the moorgate area.

Great Pub, friendly and attentive staff with a real atmosphere. Tom, Iona and the team understand how to make you feel welcome and always do. A rare gem in London and in a great area. Would highly recommend.

Really nice being back. The staff is amazing but Laura is a legend Thank you so much. Definitely will be back

Amazing place. Great stuff. Laura is a star

Great food and drinks, perfect for spending time with friends. I will visit again. 💯 Points for Laura, our waitress she was the best!!

Excelent place….good service🥰 Laura you’re the best.

Great place, good food, Laura is awesome.

Gran equipo de trabajo, las comidas muy buenas, quiero agradecer a Giuseppe Gullo por su gran servicio y carisma, continúa así son un gran equipo 🔝

The Rack and Tenter… what a breath of fresh air of a welcoming pub in the heart of the city of London! The team of Tom, Iona, Byron, Nat, Laura, Iva and Giuseppe are always on hand to serve and provide the highest level of hospitality to their guests. With one of the best selection of beers on tap, wines and spirits, and even now with a fancy tonic machine, this pub feels like a real local pub even though it’s so far from home. Would highly recommend it to anyone looking for somewhere to start an evening out or even just to pop in for a quick pint, they’ll even throw on the best sport of the day for you to watch! Get to know them and say Hi, they will definitely look after you!

Superb service, bartender Libby did a Sterling job.

Great beer, food and service. Iona looked after us very well.

Went in recently for a drink and some food with friends. Great food and lovely service, especially your new Bartender Libby who couldn’t do enough for us. Served us with a smile the whole time and always attentive. Highly recommend.

Thank you to all staff for the excellent service but Always special thanks ti the great Giuseppe Gullo

excellent staff. professional guys, especially Giuseppe Gullo (i love his cocktails) !! nice place for an aperitif, an evening with friends, a day of friendship and much more.

Libby gave me a great experience!!

Great city pub with lovely serving staff!

A pub I have frequented as immediately next door to my current workplace. Always mediocre in quality, only thing on draft that is even vaguely looked after is the neck oil. Its location is the only reason I've bothered with it. However last night (wednesday 25th may 2022) I had the wonderful experience of the bar staff literally ignoring myself and my colleague and serving everybody but us for 15 minutes. I have literally never had this happen at a pub in my life. For a pub of such low quality it's quite astonishing for the staff to behave this way. I won't be visiting again! Far better options all around. Also their toilets, never refurbished, are RIDICULOUSLY and I mean RIDICULOUSLY small. They rest on their laurels due to their location. AVOID. UPDATE: In response to the reply, it was on a Wednesday, it was not busy, and 5-6 people who came after us were served first. it was not a SENSE of being ignored. It was ACTUALLY BEING IGNORED. When was asked about this we were told we were behind yet another person, and still were not served! I have never in all my (MANY) years of going to pubs had this happen before. As for the rest, it's subjective. The toilet issue remains a thing to be aware of.

Amazing food, amazing drink and amazing staff. Our waiter Peppe was so attentive, helpful and lovely to be around.

Had a lovely lunch served by Peppe who was great. Food was very tasty

This lad served me and was very nice. said he was called Sean!

It was a pleasure to be served by sean Byrne. Lovely pints
