The Maple Leaf in City of London, Westminster

Had a very pleasant lunch here yesterday (17.11.24). Food was good and reasonably priced.

Come here to meet up with friends every now and then plus watched the rugby this Saturday.. Great atmosphere and as we were early we got a seat!

A slice of Canada in the UK, Fantastic friendly staff, genuine poutine, Canadian beer, Canadian memorabilia adorning the walls, as well as large screen TV's showing soccer and hockey.

My reservation has been canceled. The reservation for two adults and one child was completed on the website, but it was rejected at the door because there was a child. I am not at fault. You should have made the reservation impossible on the website. I'm so disappointed. I don't want to give a single star because I couldn't get in. ----------------- The website should have stated that no children are allowed due to soccer games. And the employee who refused us was very rude and unapologetic while eating something. You should know that the biggest problem is still unresolved. That's the employee!

Was in here early October while visiting overseas and as a Canadian liked the fact I can have a ceasar and a CC and coke like back home

Nice pub! Good for watching sports. No non alcoholic beer which is a shame

Have frequented in the past, but one of the bouncers on the door yesterday was incredibly antagonistic threatening to throw the group I was with out after another group gave us their table. Was very uncalled for and made some the women uncomfortable.

Arrived early evening to meet up with friends, didn't even cross the threshold as the doorman gave out serious attitude and seemed pissed that I'd had the temerity to interrupt his chat with some other punters. There are plenty of other pubs in the area where you won't be riled before even setting foot in the place.

Massive thank you to Grant for making our visit amazing. The poutines were delish and just like being back home. A lovely Thanksgiving Day out with friends. We will be back after the renovations. Thank you to the whole team :)

Had some great chicken wings and beer.

I really enjoyed this pub in london. A must see place if your Canadian.

Great pub, great atmosphere, fantastic service!

Get yourself a new security guy on the door. Tried to meet my friend who was leaving for the states this evening - the security dude wouldn't let me in. I just wanted to have a coke with my mate before she left. He was so obtuse and rude - get rid. Fire him. My friends and I (25 of us) went elsewhere and took our business with us.

Nice place. Food was good, prices were OK. Screens are everywhere, so it was easy watching the champions league match comfortably. would come here again if I want to watch a football game

As a Canadian on a trip to London, this was a pleasant surprise. A friend of mine told me to go check it out! There is good poutine and good Canadian Beer as well! Great service and I was unfortunately unable to go at night but I've heard the ambiance is awesome at night. During the afternoon there were a few groups and it was very chill. Played sports on all the TVs.

Great place to watch sports. Food and drinks were good and very reasonably priced for the Covent Garden area. Cool to have a Canadian vibe.

Good sports bar with good tasty food and a good variety of drinks... However quite pricey due to being in Covent garden.

Great poutine, that's all I needed.

Lovely themed Canadian bat now owned by green king. Lots of sports to watch including ice hockey (obviously) food was nice but small , service was excellent . Good selection of beers. Toilets could have been cleaner.

Bunch of hosers. Waiting for a donnybrook but everyone behaved.

If you're craving a Caesar, We found them here 😩 I didn't order food though, just drank a bunch of Caesars

Amazing American/Canadian themed bar great simple food and atmosphere is amazing due to the variety of sports being played and watched by people from all over

If you're a Canadian in need of a poutine, you're in good shape to come ere.

This boozer gets very busy when football is on. The service is very quick and efficient. The atmosphere is very friendly and welcoming. This is a great place to visit for drinks

I was served by the amazing Rachel, who gave us excellent advice on the drinks and whom we had a lovely conversation with, the Canadian theme inside the bar was so cool !!!

served by Rachel, such great customer service and product knowledge - had a great chat whilst getting our pints. fun vibes in the pub with cool decor, and great staff!

Superb burgers. Great atmosphere. Friendly service. Will definitely be back!

Super fun pub with great pies and chips and a great staff.

Visted with my son. Haven't been in years, so was sad to hear Molson was no longer available on tap. However the very awesome barman served us lush Sleemans and outstanding customer service. Will be visiting again soon.

Returned after 15 years, hasn't changed. Still as good as ever.

Great place to go have fun with a gang or as a single person especially if you are Canadian Ex-Pats. Everything about this pub screams CANADA 🇨🇦 They show all the live Canadian sports, especially Hockey !! We love hockey 🏒😉 The atmosphere and decor is made to reflect a little bit of Canada 🍁. If you plan on going to celebrate Canada Day, you better get up early because it gets packed really fast. Located right in the heart of Convent Gardens & close to all the theaters 🎭 . The staff is really welcoming and polite like Canadians are known to be. A little home base for us Canadians. GOOD JOB 👏🏻

This is a delightful Canadian themed pub in Covent Garden. It is large with ample seating inside and out. They show many Canadian and US sports in addition to the usual favourites such as the English Premier league. In keeping with their theme they have plenty of Canadian drinks on show, I opted for Maple Leaf lager at £7.45. Their food menu continues that theme with poutine. Although I did not eat the food what I saw looked good and was reasonably priced for the area. The service was excellent and the barman and I did enjoy a sport related conversation. They do not sell cask beer and their whisky selection was not large, however they do sell Canadian whiskies. In summary a very good pub well worth a visit.

When I saw there is a Canadian restaurant here in the UK, I questioned if their poutine was authentic or at least even good. We decided to give this place a chance and we ordered a lot of dishes to properly try out the place. First of all, everything we ordered was better than the other but the poutine itself was exactly what I was looking for. Keep in mind I have been looking for some proper poutine outside of Canada for over 13 years now. Maple Leaf did not disappoint. Without trying to hype the place up, you cannot go wrong coming the Maple leaf if you are looking for some real authentic poutine. In addition to the poutine the rest of the dishes we ordered were great but hands down, the poutine stood out. Maple leafs is definitely the place to go for some good proper Canadian food here in the UK.

The poutine is excellent!! The servers are very friendly and friendly

Lovely bar with nice beer and friendly staff

I went to the Maple Leaf with some friends for a beer after dinner on my trip to London. We’re from Canada so we figured it would be nice to go to a Canadian pub. I have been here before and never had any issues. As my friends and I walked in while talking and catching up, a security guard sitting at a desk in a corner ran after us and aggressively grabbed a grocery bag out of my friend’s hands. He had apparently been trying to say something to us but we could not hear him as it is a loud pub. He looked at us after he grabbed the bag and said “is there something wrong with you?”. He confiscated our bag filled with candies/lollies (which we brought from Canada to give to our English friend) and shook his head. Afterwards, I went to speak with him and explained to him how it’s not appropriate to speak to any customer like that and grab their personal items out of their hand as they were pretty shook up about it and he responded with “I’ve been doing this a long time” and said he did nothing wrong. The bartender overheard the conversation and was very kind and apologized on his behalf which certainly defused the situation. However, I would not recommend this place to anyone based on the horrible experience with the security. I have never even written a review before of a restaurant but I felt like something needs to be done to address such aggressive behaviour.

A nice Canadian style bar in the heart of Covent Garden. This place is quite big with an option of tables. They show all of the games with plenty of view. The staff are extra helpful and have a smile. There's an array of drinks availablthatch are not on the menu, but you should ask for a recommendation. They offer a Canadian food menu that should be tried.

When there's a match it's great.

Lovely Canadian bar in London very welcoming thank you 😊

We went there because my girlfriend is Canadian and wanted to check out what they offered. She was excited that they offered some Canadian products eg. Local beers, Poutine, pickle backs and caesars. Worth a visit for Canadians looking for a small taste of home!

Caesars great - poutine not great, too much gravy!

Great Canadian spot, serving Poutine and Cesar cocktail. Loved the atmosphere, very friendly staff.

Good pub wo watch sports, or to drink beer with some decent food

Booked in for lunch before watching back to the future musical and it was exceptional. Australian chap who served us was lovely, food was delicious and came out quickly and it was a nice relaxed atmosphere. Excellent place to eat and drink.

Not been here for years. Loved it. Tip jar was great even if I missed. You must give it a go :)

Lots of tvs with a multitude of sports, and the only place that does proper poutine in London that I've found so far. Will be back!!

First time trying Poutine , very much enjoyed it. The Kaarage style chicken was also very nice 👍

We had lunch here and it was delicious! Karagge chicken was amazing and the chicken wings were perfect! The staff were really lovely and attentive and fast with service. 5 star customer service!. I’ve come up from Norfolk and when I’m back in London I will definitely pop in again!

A perfect fish & chips with a very cold canadian beer. Higly reccomended.

I recently dined at Maple Leaf, and it was a delightful experience that exceeded my expectations. The restaurant offers a warm and inviting atmosphere with its charming décor and comfortable seating, making it a great spot for both casual meals and special occasions. The menu features a diverse selection of dishes, showcasing a blend of classic favorites and innovative creations. The quality of the food was impressive, with each dish beautifully presented and full of flavor. The standout for me was the [specific dish], which was expertly prepared and absolutely delicious. The ingredients were fresh, and the flavors were well-balanced, reflecting the chef’s attention to detail. The service at Maple Leaf was top-notch. The staff were friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, providing excellent recommendations and ensuring that our dining experience was smooth and enjoyable. Despite the restaurant being busy, the service was prompt, and our needs were well attended to. In addition to the great food and service, the ambiance of Maple Leaf contributed to a pleasant dining experience. The environment is relaxed and inviting, making it easy to enjoy a leisurely meal with friends or family. In summary, Maple Leaf offers a fantastic dining experience with its excellent food, attentive service, and welcoming atmosphere. It’s a restaurant I would happily recommend to anyone looking for a memorable meal.

Possibly the only place in London to get some Sleemans on tap. A little piece of Canadian turf in the heart of covent garden.

Really nice atmosphere, colours, nice staff. Refreshing to hear some Canadian rock music rather than the usual Greene King rubbish, and poutine on the menu! I had to leave off a star because the gravy was a bit to thin. Poutine needs a good thick hearty gravy and this one was a little too watery.

Great spot for sports enthusiasts! The pub has a nice atmosphere, and the staff are fantastic—friendly and attentive. Definitely a good place to enjoy a game and a drink.

That Maple Lager let down the Maple leaf. Sorry Canada. Otherwise great venue :)

Hands down best sports bar in central London. Staff are all on point, plenty of drink and food offerings

I recently visited the Maple Leaf Bar in London with the hopes of enjoying a late-night drink, specifically a Caesar, a Canadian favourite. Unfortunately, my experience was quite disappointing. I arrived at the bar around 10:45 PM on a Saturday, well ahead of their advertised closing time of midnight. However, to my dismay, I was met with a less-than-welcoming response from the staff. The front man rudely informed me that the doors had closed over an hour earlier, contrary to the information provided online which stated that they close at 12 AM on Saturdays. This discrepancy between the advertised hours and the actual operating hours left a sour taste in my mouth before I even had the chance to order a drink. The rudeness of the staff only compounded the frustration of the situation. A simple, polite explanation about the change in hours would have sufficed, but the dismissive attitude made the experience worse. To add to the frustration, when I asked to speak with the manager, he did not address me directly. Instead, he simply ushered at a band around his arm which I could not see clearly, forcing me to ask more than once for him to speak to me directly. As someone who works in hospitality for over 3 years, I know this level of service does not fly. It was very unfortunate that we did not get to try this place, as we were genuinely looking forward to experiencing what the Maple Leaf Bar had to offer. In conclusion, while I was eager to experience the Maple Leaf Bar and enjoy a Caesar, the poor customer service and misleading information about operating hours were significant letdowns. I would caution others to double-check their plans before heading to this bar, as my experience suggests they might not adhere to their advertised closing times. Based on this visit, I cannot recommend the Maple Leaf Bar.

Being from Quebec, I couldn't help but stop at this pub-restaurant which presents itself as being a spearhead of poutine in London. The employees, who were also bilingual, were fantastic. Real Canadians who know what they're talking about. Super friendly, they make you want to go back. The atmosphere wasn't that bad. We see inspiration taken from Canadian sports bars. The decoration is taken from authentic Canadian artifacts... BUT! I cannot ignore the fact that they have a collection of automobile plates of which Ontario is represented twice, but of which Quebec is absent!! What a scandal! We can't blame them for moving from cricket to the screen, although I would have preferred hockey match replays haha! As for "classic" poutine, the cheese curds seemed authentic, albeit faded. This is probably the best aspect of this poutine. The fries were not up to par and one might wonder where the sauce came from. In the end, it eats well, but is not yet at the level of an original poutine.

Loved the Belgian raspberry beer on tap! Food was exceptional! And what a nice space to relax

Enjoyable Canadian themed pub with all the fixin’s. From endless Poutine options to croquettes and molson Canadian to drink. Come to watch a game on the TVs and find tons of expats and tourists from Canada and America. Does get crowded around hockey games as well as on Canada day ( as to be expected.) Bartenders are friendly and helpful. Location is convenient to public transit

Don't know if a Canadian was a part of the ownership but it could be better. Bartender didn't know about hockey and the beer was.... That's basic Canadian. But as a Canadian I'm just happy they are acknowledging Canada.

They did not have gluten free beer and only one horrible cider on tap that I could drink after putting salt on it because of how sweet it was.

Very Canadian food! Love the Poutine - definitely go for the classic! The bar staff are very friendly and run a very tight ship. Not usually super busy on most days, but on hockey days it is absolutely packed (the same goes for most big sports events)!

Where are the Ceasars and the Canadian beers? I mean on your online menu. Nary a Canadian beer or Cesar to be seen.

Loved this place for lunch. Sort of Canadian tapas, we selected 5 dishes between 2 plus some sweet potato fries and it was a huge feast. The Bbq chicken was immense but all of the dishes were great. Fantastic and recommended but get there early it gets busy at 1pm for lunch.

Stopped here after a day exploring London. Food was very reasonably priced and portions were big. We got British poutine, fish and chips, and wings. All were great. Great beer selection. Lots of tvs to watch sports.

It was London Pride 29/07, extremely hot day. Just off the train from Dorset, stopped for a glass of cool sparkling water infused with lemon and lime. Sat outside under an umbrella. Great international atmosphere. Clean toilets ❤

Great pub Very friendly popped in on Thursday before killers at o2 definitely will be returning grant nice bloke very welcoming

Such a lovely pub Popped in for one drink 4 drinks later still there with my hubby and sister Grant the manger really lovely and friendly we will be back Keep trousers up xx

A little piece of home in the heart of London...right down to the Sleeman umbrellas! Great beer selection and classic pub food with friendly service

We were in London for Canada Day and a friend messaged us to suggest this spot. As Canadians we loved the theming. The place was obviously very busy but I got a good look at the menu and feel it would be worth trying some food but thankfully was able to get to the bar to order a Caesar cocktail with the right stuff. They also had Canadian beers like Molson Canadian, Sleemans and I saw some Moosehead around too. A very nice way to celebrate Canada Day and would also be a nice spot to get a nice sports bar meal or if you're on vacation and missing Canada for those Canadians abroad. We loved that they had a hockey stick ready to serve "slapshots". Covent Garden and Charing Cross are the closest tube stations and there are quite a few busses that serve the area as well. It is close to attractions like Trafalgar Square, Embankment and the many theaters of West End. A surprisingly prime location in Central London.

Lots of hockey and Canada, food so so.

We went to the gasto pub day to refresh after seeing some of the pride parade and surprising there was there was not decor to celebrate pride! Clearly not a place that would be welcoming of such thing as when we tried to go to the bar to order drinks the bouncer stopped us to say we had enough evened though we have not yet had order or had too much drink! We had a drink maybe a drink or two at the previous bar. Some of our group Had got in however were lot wearing any pride colors so I suspect it was because we’re dressed in pride outfits that we were denied! Never again would i go especially looking at the prices of drink!

Ordered 2 drinks, steak and ale pie and sticky toffee pudding; everything tasted amazing , service was great and the atmosphere was really fun. This is a great place to go before seeing a show at the theatre or for a quick meal or drinks.

A very well priced LDN watering hole (drink and especially food), with great servers and sport on the TV. Brilliant.

I always rate coming here. The atmosphere is great, price is manageable and the food it quite nice. It also helps the staff are pretty awesome too!

Molson Canadian available here, music to my ears. It's so hard to find in Europe. The poutine looks awesome, but we couldn't cram any more food in. We will definitely come back to have some poutine and more Molsons on our next visit to London.

Good for sport, beer on tap mainly was flat.

Amazing location, just behind all the drama of Covent Garden, yet in the best spot at the same time. Shows all the sports, beers are great, staff very friendly. Gets busy

We really enjoyed stopping at The Maple Leaf Pub in the Covent Garden area of London. They have a solid selection of Canadian beer on hand, including Sleeman’s on draught. They offer a pretty good menu of Canadian Food, including a variety of very tasty poutines. This is a great place to watch a sporting event.

Don’t eat here, pooor food pooor service and I attached the picture of the over burned burguer with “cheese” !!! Please hire a real chef

Always a fan of this place, Many memories here.

No e pub for sports , although I was expecting more Canadians

Very rude manager ! Can’t speak to clients with respect. However, great place and food. Maybe that’s the problem…

Fantastic poutine, great selection of Canadian beers, and not too expensive for the area!

A ideal place to take in a refreshment and catch up.with friends.

Kitschy, but not in a bad way! If you're a Canadian missing home, or a local just looking to try a Molson, definitely worth the stop. I was shocked that they made poutine as well as they did - I'm sure any traveling Canuck would approve of their take. Friendly staff, and really convenient location.

Didn’t know this place was here awesomeness 💙

Fab-u-lous place to dine & for a drink, there was sport & racing on the television. The place was buzzing with atmosphere.

Great place for Canucks to grab a beer from the homeland. Took all the provincial flags down though.

Awesome pub friendly staff and good food and drink selection I was served by Khyla and she was super friendly

Cat was lovely today, super friendly and efficient. However the other lady working with dark hair pulled back was rude and un-accommodating. There were 4 team members chatting behind the bar and no one registered me even whilst it wasn’t busy. I’m a Londoner and work in the area. That one lady should not serve customers and I’m speaking as a customer service profession.

Good spot and decore, but hard to overlook that it's a hockey bar that is unable to play live play-off hockey. Edit for response: Thanks for the condescending reply but It had nothing to do with time-zones. I was watching the Islanders play at 8PM on a Saturday on my phone inside the bar.

Best spot for some Canadian nostalgia, and the Sleemans is great too!!

Updated to provide info Came here in marathon day with my wife, baby and some friends. While it's not aimed at people with babies. There is no changing table in either toilet and initially the staff were unable to provide hot water. Beer was good, would visit again just without a baby! Food also looked good.

Nugget pub! For our first in London, we came across it by chance and it was an excellent choice! The fish and chips are incredible and even the burger tasted like you'd come back for more! #Lesfrancaisenroadtrip

Only here for a short time, but nice menu, good drinks selection and very friendly barstaff

Really enjoyed my visit. Was so nice to be greeted with a friendly hello. Good drinks menu and a really well priced food offering.

Popped in before heading to a show. Very nice beer and great burger. Unfortunately the onion rings were missing. The young lady serving us went to get them for us but unfortunately they never arrived. It was quite a busy Thursday in there so things happen. All in all, worth a visit.

This was a lovely pub. Molsons was available and it was lovely and cold. Food was good and it was between 10 to 20 pound spend. Really liked this place.
