We were so lucky to find this quaint pub and restaurant on our last night in London. It's in the heart of Covent Garden. The "Pies" (Steak & Ale and Chicken, Ham & Leek) were delicious...some of the best we had in the U.K. Our server was Pavi and she took great care of us. Overall, a wonderful end to a wonderful trip!

Came here to rest our feet having been walking around Covent Garden, a traditional old English pub which hasn't changed its style for numerous years & good on them for that. It was saturday afternoon & warm so very busy with a number of people drinking out doors. We didn't eat here but we enjoyed the wide selection of drinks available to choose from. Staff were polite & friendly even though you could see how busy they were (always a bonus for any establishment). Well worth seeking out & stopping for a pint or two.

Always a great little place to stop at when going through Covent Garden. The lack of pretentiousness in an area surrounded by designer shops, is always refreshing. Staff are warm and welcoming. There is always a buzz of different people enjoying a selection of beers. The food doesn't disappoint, with a simple menu, reasonably priced but does not cut out quality, flavour and presentation. Always a joy to stop off when navigating the throngs of London.

I spotted this pub in Covent Garden. As I was wearing an OFAH tea shirt, I thought that it would be a nice touch to have a glass of Guinness and a photograph of my little adventure. Although the bar staff were complimentary, they seem to be oblivious to what the teashirt represented once pointed out. I had to point it out because none of the three noticed it. It was a lovely day, which made the atmosphere a jolly one. I can not comment on the food as I did not eat inside the pub. However, I have to say that the searing for food was pretty much full when I passed through to use the loo.

Food really without any flavor and difficult to eat, I took pies they were very dry with more dough than filling, the filling was not good. Industrial sauce. The only thing that was okay was the fries. Service to improve, one of the waitresses was friendly but I just wanted to ask another waiter for a glass of water, he told me to go get it myself at the bar! They charge in advance before being served. I wanted to order a 250ml glass of wine but the waitress served us a 175ml one, so I had to ask for a second one which was therefore charged extra! Really to avoid

Been here with my girlfriend and her family for a Quick dinner out of rush hours. The food menu Is various enough to allow vegetarian to have options and food was not bad . The price are right for the area and the Place upstairs Is cozy enough . That said i feel they could do with a wider and more interesting selectiob of beers and Spice up the food a Little with more interesting dishes . The room upstairs Is cozy but doesnt really feel warm If this make sense. Worth to mention the sit at the corner since he goes on a big round window and you can see the street underneath which Is quite cool. Overall a good traditional and non pretentious pub .

I suggest you book to dine upstairs as it is a lovely dining room.

I signed up to The Nag's Head mailing list several years ago and each year around my birthday, I get an offer of a free bottle of prosecco if you order 2 main courses. I popped in at midday and asked if I could book a table for 1pm, using the offer. The person at the bar didn't know about the offer but she phoned her manager straight away to get advice. I was impressed by this, so would like to mention her name ,which is Tea. The manager Cameron came within 2 minutes to discuss this with me and advised me to take a screenshot of the qr code. We came back at 1pm and dined upstairs, which is a lovely spot. Beautifully decorated and slightly quieter than the main bar. We both had fish and chips and we were very impressed by the quality and generosity of the meal. The fish was succulent and the chips were crispy and delicious. We couldn't finish our meal as it was so large. The service was lovely and Cameron really made us feel valued. A great pub to visit and just opposite Covent Garden tube.

It gets the one star because it's a nice pub inside but the food wasn't nice at all or our server. The honey "roast" ham is served cold and the server came clean after saying we'd like it heated and explained it's pre bought and pre packaged ham. It was cold, slimey and gross and to charge 16 pounds is robbery for something you buy in. No mention of changing it for something else or a refund as my wife and daughter didn't eat it only the chips and some of the egg. So down 32 pounds for chips. I'm also pretty sure we were treated this way as they knew we were tourist's. Completely disappointing in our last eatery in London. Avoid.
