Spent the weekend in London and come across this pub looking for something to eat. Normal London prices for food and Drink. But was pleasantly surprised when the food came, it was homemade and cooked fresh. Not purchased in bulk buy & then cooked. Will definitely come again. It was lovely

The food was nice but when I received the bill I couldn't understand why it was so high. Upon closer inspection I realised that we had been charged for 2 large glasses of wine. When I ordered the wine I didn't think to specify the size and unfortunately we were not asked. It should never have been presumed that we wanted large glasses, because, quite frankly, at your prices I would never have ordered large. Please ensure that staff ask what size glasses of wine customers would like.

Rude staff. Refused a pint because I'm visually impaired (I was completely sober on the day). Second time I was refused a pint because of my visual impairment. Even showed my VI card to the bouncer but no change. Did you know about the Equality Act? This is discrimination.

A pub with a dining room on the first floor. The waiter was incredibly nice and helpful as I have to eat differently for health reasons. Great atmosphere, characterized by many photos and maps of the Palladium Theater. Downstairs the pub is partitioned off with etched glass panes, which creates small rooms and makes it easy to separate yourself. The food was really good, the drinks were well chilled.

Thanks so much to all the Argyll Arms team for helping to make our evening so wonderful and memorable.

Lovely pub. Good beer. We drank London Pride and it seemed good. Didn't try the food but I expect it would be standard Wetherspoon's. It was a Thursday mid-evening and the pub was heaving. No seats or tables available on the ground floor. There were dozens of empty seats around tables on the first floor eating area, but you couldn't sit there unless you were going to order food. If there are regularly this many seats free upstairs I suggest they create a drinking area there.

Have eaten at the Argyll Arms several times before and the service has always been very good. Unfortunately, this time was not good. We ordered our starter and main courses and just when we were expecting our starters to arrive, we were told that due to a mix up, our main courses were ready first. We declined the somewhat strange offer of having our starter afterwards and proceeded to eat our main course. In fairness, the staff were very apologetic and polite and I was happy to accept that we all make mistakes. I wasn't so happy to notice later however that we had been billed a service charge. I do feel the experience was was well below our expectations.

Once we sat down the service was excellent apologies were made as one or two dishes had sold out.

The Argyll Arms is a traditional British pub located in the heart of Soho, London. It is a Grade II listed building that dates back to the 18th century. The pub has a cozy and welcoming atmosphere, with wooden floors, exposed brickwork, and a large fireplace. The staff are friendly and attentive, and the service is excellent. The Argyll Arms is a great place to go for a pint of real ale or a glass of wine. They have a wide selection of drinks on tap, including several guest ales. The food is also very good, with a menu of classic pub dishes such as fish and chips, burgers, and bangers and mash. The Argyll Arms is a popular spot for both locals and tourists. It is a great place to relax and enjoy a drink with friends or family. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a traditional British pub experience. Here are some additional details that you could include in your review: The pub is located in a great location, just a short walk from Oxford Street and Regent Street. It is a popular spot for live music, with bands playing most nights of the week. The pub has a large beer garden, which is perfect for enjoying a drink on a sunny day. They offer a variety of food deals, including a two-for-one burger offer on Mondays. Overall, The Argyll Arms is a great pub with a lot to offer. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a traditional British pub experience.

Disappointing! Went with a friend and she literally got discriminated first hand and they refused to sell her drinks even when she showed her physical residence permit. It's so illegal as It's literally against the Equality Act 2010. I personally wouldn't recommend someone especially if you "look young" to this pub even if you had your id with you. It's better to go other pubs like weatherspoon or shakespeare head where they won't make a fuss about it.

My recent visit to The Argyll Arms pub was nothing short of a nightmare. I went in, ordered a drink, and handed over my ID, which included my Biometric Residence Permit (BRP). To my disbelief, the staff not only made a ridiculous fuss over the type of ID I presented but also saw fit to escalate the situation by bringing in the manager. Despite presenting a valid form of identification, they stubbornly insisted on a passport and callously refused to serve me drinks. I understand the importance of age verification, but the sheer inflexibility and lack of common courtesy were astounding. What's more, the staff's attitude was shockingly rude. It's disheartening to think that a simple transaction turned into a humiliating ordeal due to the staff's incompetence and lack of professionalism. The Argyll Arms should seriously reconsider its ID policies and invest in staff training to ensure a basic level of respect and customer service. My experience was not only embarrassing but also a clear indication of the establishment's disregard for customer satisfaction. I sincerely hope others can be spared the humiliation I endured during my visit. The Argyll Arms needs a serious overhaul if it hopes to retain any semblance of customer loyalty.
