The Thornbury Castle in City of London, Westminster - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Good value pub in the Marylebone area. There's been a change of ownership, and you now get a welcoming service, and both cards and cash accepted. They occasionally have live jazz on a Friday evening; I hope that becomes established.

OMG I cannot recommend eating here enough. Best tapas I have ever eaten! Aubergine with date & caramel sauce, prawns & several others. Great rose wine..! The staff were jus so lovely & helpful too. Nice that there is a seating area a little away from the main bar. Definitely want to go & eat here again! Highly recommend

Great little pub in Marylebone. Great friendly staff good selection of drinks. Cosy. Prices not too bad for London too. Worth popping in if in the area

Lovely freshly cooked tapas and a good selection of well kept beers. The staff were very helpful especially with my partner who needs both gluten and dairy free food die to allergies. Highly recommended.

visited thinking it was Thai, but change of management and staff. I had no issues with previous landlord but I know some did. the new landlord is welcoming as are staff and the decor is much more in keeping with Marylebone. choice of lager Amstel, bitters not great at moment but food, now tapas was great. well surpassed my expectation. one of my friends was gluten and dairy intolerant, they were helpful and food was enjoyed by all. try it while the tapas is here and we'll cokjed by the new manager.

Great Family Run Pub incorporating a Thai Restaurant. Whats not to like. Very friendly, great choice of Real Ales and close to Paddington, Marylebone and Lords. Always come here when in London - well done all.

Always good quality in evey way plus great location. Our go to pub when in London. Beer great choice and condition. Nice to se a family run pub. Will return in August.

We have been using this pub on our occasional trips to London from the Midlands for a few years now and it's remained great. It's a perfect place to spend an hour-or-so on the way to catch a train home from Marylebone Station, being just across the road from the station, about 250 metres away, in Endford St. Family run, the whole family are obliging and provide helpful and informed advice about the good selection of real ales available, and the wonderful tasty Thai food they offer - provided by a Thai couple who cook there. So glad they have weathered the Covid-19 storm and still provide the same great level of service.

Great pub near Marylebone great beers and ales luv the Paulaner in a frozen glass And the family service is impeccable

Just left this pub to return home to sidcup after a lovely day in London. First time in London since lockdown and what a great end to a lovely day. Friendly staff and great food

Lots of rain in London as usual so I pop in to this pub to get out of the rain and have a nice pint. Minimum card spend is a 10er but stayed anyway and thought I could just stay for two. Settled down with my beer and the bar manager / landlord comes over and asks me to remove my leg from the seat. How strange? I was just resting a leg as it was a bit sore. I asked why this was an issue and the response ‘it is the appearance of it’ I could maybe understand if I was in a restaurant or perhaps I was wearing dirty overalls. But I work an office job and was wearing smart attire. Felt a bit embarrassed but mostly confused. Would have been a nice pub. A real shame people can’t just chill the f*** out.

Tried this place last night, and despite not knowing about the kitchen had a lovely Thai meal to boot. The pub is a typical boozer, pretty good range of interesting beers, it was a Monday so the pub was quite quiet and there were plenty of seats. Staff were pleasant, but lacked a zap of enthusiasm and welcome that would make it great! The food was really good, I couldn’t fault the dishes we had, a real treat hidden away in Marylebone.

While I enjoyed the food, the manager was extremely aggressive. When we were told that everyone having food MUST by a drink as it is two separate companies, I questioned it saying that a) it makes it complicated for the customer having to respond to the way the pub is set up when they should have a smooth customer experience and b) I don’t know any pub that forces every member of a group to buy a drink (when three out of four are) just to have the right to be there. She responded very aggressively as if she’s tired of telling customers how it works (if you had to respond to this feedback so many times perhaps it’s because something isn’t working?). Greeting customers with arbitrary consumption rules then getting angry when they question them is a guaranteed way to ensure they never return - I certainly won’t and will advise all my colleagues at a nearby huge corporate office to avoid as well.

The actual castle in Gloucestershire after which this pub is named is not a true castle at all, but rather a Tudor manor house. However, there is nothing fake about this pub, a wonderful find on a side street close to both Marylebone and Baker Street stations. It has a traditional feel with patterned carpet, glasses above the bar on a shelf patterned with wrought iron etc. However, you can watch sports here on a couple of TV screens (the Rugby World Cup meant the ubiquitous flags were on display) and there is a good range of whiskies and ales, Last Drop, Secret Sunrise and Squadron among the latter.

Typical London Pub without all the noise and betting machines. Beer and Light Bites Excellent, shame they close at the weekends.

El peor lugar en Londres, NO pierdas tu tiempo y NO vayas allí.Londres tiene lugares increíbles con un gran servicio, especialmente en el área.No tienes que humillarte para tomar una cerveza, estás pagando sus salarios.El dueño, un hombre es muy RACISTA: solo acepta a un anciano en el bar.Su hijo, detrás de la barra seleccionando clientes, sinceramente, no está seguro de dónde proviene el dinero. La peor experiencia de todas.

Nice enough pub serving good beer. Pity the manager is such an unpleasant bloke. There are plenty of other establishments in the area where you will get service with a smile, not reluctant service with snide remarks.

Mi segunda visita y otra gran selección de auténtica cerveza servida por un barman con un detallado conocimiento de degustación de las cervezas que se ofrecen. La comida tailandesa era muy buena. Es un excelente pub cerca de las estaciones de las calles Marylebone y Baker. Los baños estaban muy limpios también.

Habiendo recibido una bienvenida bastante helada cuando visitamos hace aproximadamente un año, le dimos otra oportunidad, principalmente debido a su selección de cerveza real decente.El pub estaba muy tranquilo. El barman apenas reconoció que estábamos allí y se tomó unos minutos para terminar de mirar su teléfono. Su atención estaba claramente en otra parte, procediendo a comenzar a servir la cerveza equivocada hasta que lo corregimos. Un hombre de pocas palabras.La cerveza estaba bien, pero a más de un fiver por una pinta de fuerza normal, era un poco cara.No tendrán una tercera oportunidad y estoy seguro de que tampoco les importará.

It’s really unfortunate that the food is actually quite nice but the waitress/barmaid is so rude?! We were a group of 8 and decided we don’t want to go ever again just because of her attitude. Unacceptable. Thankfully there’s another Thai place nearby with a much better service!

I went there with two of my colleagues to have some drinks and Thai food for lunch. The barmaid was extremely rude and aggressive and as a result, we decided to only finish our drinks and not order food. I will not go back again.

came across this pub by chance. nothing exceptional from the outside. inside just like a pub should be.very busy a good mixture of clientele. plenty of choice of beers and to top it off sublime Thai food. would deffo visit again.

This is really a lovely place to visit. A nice quiet pub with a country feel and food beer. I didn't eat but the food looked and smelled lovely. HOWEVER, the staff were awful! I visited four times within a very short space of time. I don't think it unreasonable to redirect at least a smile and some sort of welcome, if only to acknowledge that I had seen fit to revisit the establishment. Instead there were sullen faces, almost sighing and tutting because I asked for crisps. It's always off-putting when the most prominent signs in any place are those telling you what you can't do. When I tried to pay for my drink and my food together, it couldn't be done because the food is a separate enterprise. Fair enough, but I could have been told a bit more courteously instead of the 'that's the way it is, take it or leave it' attitude. What a great shame. I'm staying around here for a few weeks. I would have put a lot of money over their bar but, no. A pub should provide a cheerful, welcoming environment. On my my four visits, I experienced neither welcome nor cheer. Avoid at all costs.

Una verdadera joya escondida, tanto como un pub como un restaurante tailandés. He comido aquí un par de veces antes: el curry massaman siempre es bueno, pero hoy tuve el pato crujiente especial de la casa con bok choi y verduras en salsa picante de hoi sin.

Visité ayer con un viejo amigo para un año nuevo ponerse al día. Encantador pub, conocedor ambiente agradable de la dueña y muy conveniente.

Vine aquí para tomar una copa después del trabajo en nuestro viaje a Londres. El dueño fue servicial para ofrecer sugerencias de restaurantes en la zona. Ella también declaró que servían comida. Lo que optamos por, tailandés. La comida estuvo deliciosa y satisfactoria. Definitivamente regresa, incluso si no nos quedamos en el área.

Acabo de leer algunos comentarios sobre este pub y, aunque este sitio web es un excelente revisor de empresas, carece de la capacidad de revisar a los clientes.

Horrid pub , dull interior, inedible food topped by a poor beer choice and a aggressive and clearly frustrated middle aged bar women / Tenant.. avoid as there are much better choices close by .

No es un muy buen pub dada la variedad disponible en la zona. Mal servicio y mala cerveza. Estuve con un amigo que estaba de visita en Londres y me encontré con este lugar. Qué pérdida de tiempo - nos fuimos y encontramos un lugar mucho mejor a la vuelta de la esquina. Olor extraño demasiado

Encantador pub amable. Yo fui un viernes por la noche y estaba bastante lleno, pero con un buen ambiente. Excelente gama de cervezas bien mantenido y la comida tailandesa era muy buena. Un montón de pantallas de televisión, algo que normalmente le disguste, pero el sonido y la calidad en general amabilidad y me convenció. Espero volver.

Fue tomada por esta pequeña calle lateral pub escondido a una corta distancia de la Marylebone Road, a dos minutos a pie de la estación de Marylebone y a 5 minutos a pie de la estación de metro Baker Street. Un pub interior clásico con sus paneles de madera y algunos banco acogedor para sentarse con una pequeña zona de estar elevada en la parte trasera. Aunque yo no estaba aquí para el Rugby hay claramente una fuerte conexión rugby union de los recuerdos en las paredes y ahora nuestros comentarios, que siempre me enamours a un lugar. Pero una buena variedad de cervezas bien mantenido que aumenta más, y yo estaba feliz de encontrar una variedad de seis cervezas de 3. 9% a 4. 4%. Siempre parece haber un par disponible desde la fábrica de Marlow rebelión y como mi visita fue durante el seis naciones de rugby el tema fue seguido a través de la opciones de cerveza. Para mi discurso de visita vale la cervecería Cierre Prop y Barrel, Windsor y Eton última gota, la compañía poco Haka poco cerveza, por los cuernos de sesiones en globo aerostático Hop IPA disponibles junto a las dos de la rebelión en forma de oro y en la temporada de visionario. Las dos que probé estaban muy bien cuidadas y en excelentes condiciones, pero como dijo que no eran los más baratos pintas que he visto en Londres.

A traditional pub in a quiet side street. The food menu looked good and was full of diners, great considering it's a Monday lunch time. Comfortable tables with matching seating which is unusual and shows they care. Definitely worth a revisit!

Spotted this pub off the Marylebone Road, Seemed quiet from the outside but had a pleasant friendly buzz about it inside. The food was really good. A lovely blend of fresh meat and veg and spices. Would definitely recommend.

A rare find these days, a pub that cares about what they put in front of you

Llamé por una pinta debido a el pub que se enumeran en Guía de la Cerveza CAMRA y fue confrontado por alrededor de media docena de bombas de mano, con una gran variedad de cervezas desconocido. El dueňo de ellos descritos para y me ofrecen una pequeña muestra. Estaba informado y apasionado de sus cervezas y yo quedamos con una pinta de cerveza la cosecha, lo cual fue maravilloso. No puedo hablar sobre la calidad de la comida, pero el tailandés olía de maravilla. Si es tan bueno como el servicio y el ambiente relajado que debe ser maravillosa. El pub es un par de minutos a pie de la estación de Marylebone, y una buena alternativa a las cadenas nacionales.

The staff were very friendly. Great authentic Thai food, will definitely be back for the food. Outside eating area, Inside TV for the sports etc Busy during the lunch time but you can always get a seat, nice atmosphere.

El Castillo Thornbury es una joya escondida de un pub. Por una pequeña calle lateral cerca de la estación de Marylebone, tiene un par de mesas, pero lo contrario no es outsise tiene mucho que ver. Pero fue un gran descubrimiento:

Pub excelente y es probablemente el mejor lugar aparte de twickenham o la Ricoh para ver el rugby. Excelente selección de cervezas de barril y todas perfectamente conservado. Sin duda volveré a por más cerveza y rugby y como la comida parece genial tendrá que llevar la novia y fecha

Mi compañero y yo visitamos este pub en recomendación y no nos decepcionó. Teníamos vine aquí para ver el juego de Inglaterra v Escocia seis naciones y el ambiente era genial, un verdadero rugby pub. Es un pub familiar y se nota, el servicio fue...

Primera visita y sin duda regresaremos como am en Londres un par de veces al mes por trabajo. Agradable ambiente 'locales' y buena cerveza, buena manera de terminar el día.

Tenía un gran almuerzo en el Castillo de Thornbury; el servicio era amable y acogedor. La comida tailandesa era caliente, fresca y deliciosa. Altamente recomendado para la zona de la estación de Marylebone. Estaré partida duda

Great beer selection with a selection of Ales, good well priced Thai food and a lovely family running the place. Would visit frequently if I lived or worked in the area but unfortunately I don't!

Friendly family run establishment with a great friendly welcome, well kept beers and a very good selection too, the sort of pub you want to revisit over again

I was with a friend and we wanted a traditional pub where we could have a quiet beer and a chat. This place is just perfect in that respect. It is comfortable not luxurious with friendly staff and a very good choice of quality beer. They charge for using credit cards so you may wish to bring cash.

Good selection of real ales and mine was in fine order if a little on the expensive side. Very handy for Marylebone station.

We visited here for a few hours as a last stop before catching our train home and loved it!The staff were very helpful and kind. The pub is only a short walk away from Marylebone Station. I would recommend this establishment if you are in this area of London.

VIsited a few times now. THe pub is friendly and has some great real ales, well kept. THe food is well flavoured, not huge portions but good value. THe seating allows for tv watching or private corners and chats All in all, a great pub for an evening catchup, a few beers and a really good meal

I have been here a few times for lunch going back a few years - which used to be good quality regular pub food. Now it is Thai but I just popped in for a drink. They have an interesting selection of real ales in a comfortable and friendly pub which is mainly full of locals as far as I can see and definitely worth a try for a beer if not the food.

I've been commuting into Marylebone for years and never knew this little pub existed, and was pleasantly surprised with what we found having just googled 'pub' when out drinking in the baker st area. I feel your a bit limited for choice in this area you've either got a couple of chain pubs by baker st or the couple of the station but the Thornbury Castle is a great alternative that I expect few people know aboutReally friendly staff made us feel very welcome and introduced us to their Thornbury Greneade drink! Good selection of drinks on offer and the food is decent and well priced here as well.A good alternative to the sports bar within the station of your ever killing time waiting for a train or want to end up back at a pub by the station.

Slightly off the beaten track but a lovely friendly pub none the less. Good beer selection, excellent 'pub grub' style food and fast and friendly service. Great place to enjoy the rugby if you're a fan.

This pub has a superb selection of draught ales, and specilist ciders. The landlord is extremely knowledgeable about his beer and his menu.I ordered Jungle Curry which was delicious, made from fresh ingredients in their kitchen, and with vermicelli rather than rice which it normally comes with. The selection of Thai food on the menu is excellent, and I intend to return to try some other dishes.We live in an era where in order to survive financially, traditional pubs have to serve decent grub, and the Thornbury Castle excels at both beer and grub.

I visited this pub last week. This is how a London pub should be. However it comes with a couple of bonuses the 1st one being a friendly landlady and the second tai food to die for. Four of us ate which consisted of a veggie, a celiac, and two normal blokes.They coped very well with our needs and food was great. This isn't fine dinning this is an old pub with plenty of character, after eating there I felt like I'd found a gem hence the lofty rating.

This is a great spot to land in if you are in the Baker Street area (but don't want to feel like you're on the main drag). It's family run (meaning they live upstairs and are closed at the weekend) but you really feel welcome. They've got a high quality, authentic Thai dishes to order from the kitchen that are delicious and priced very fairly. Behind the bar Steve and Sarah really know their drinks, and they are always keen to find a good quality offering for their loyal clientele.

Looking for somewhere to eat near Marylebone, we spotted what looked like a nice little pub sign, so decided to investigate. On entering, we realised the sign matched the pub rather nicely, and were greeted by several decent ales, and by a very friendly welcome. A long discussion on Wasps ensued, along with several discussions on beer. Which was excellent - several great, hoppy (but well-balanced) beers on, mostly from the Rebellion Brewery in Marlow. All of them great. Pub had music on - but not too loud, so you could easily talk, and exactly to my taste. So we thought we would eat, especially as food was pretty cheap. The Thai food was excellent, outstanding value, and of course nothing accompanies Thai food better than hoppy beer - a match made in heaven.So the quick pint turned into rather a few more, and a great meal. Everywhere we looked, people were smiling - rare enough in any pub these days, never mind in London.So great pub, we'll be back next time we're in town without doubt.

Popped in to try the Thai food and had a nice Massaman Curry. Not over large but reasonably priced and means room for a starter next time. Good range of beers including a Red Squirrel Hopfest which went down very well. Friendly pub and staff plus an unexpected bonus - heard a Yeah Yeahs track playing in the background. Would definitely return for more food, ale (and music).

Just went for a few pints with a friend who lives nearby - very quickly we fell into conversation with the landlord and his son - the sort of place where you could easily spend a happy afternoon or evening

Had spent a day in London and we had 90 minutes to wait until our train was to depart. Found this pub and really enjoyed it - staff were very friendly, talked rugby to what we took to be the manager (Wasps supporter but nobodys perfect) and promised to see him at Leicester Tigers. Rebellion Red beer was superb and having spotted others sharing a Thai sharing platter we had one as well - really very good taste and value. So good we nearly missed the train!!!

Very friendly with a nice atmosphere. Service hood and very friendly. Good place if you like sport. Did not eat here so can't comment on the food

Great little find.They do a selection of very nice beers. The staff were able to able pick the best one. then to top it off they do some very good Thai food at very reasonable price. I had the Green Thai curry. It wasn't to spicy, though it had a kick. It was a fair portion and it was only £7. I cannot complain!

Fantastic booze and fantastic food. Thai food has a kick to it which makes it different to other pubs that serve thai food. Cask ales are regularly changed and they offer a great choice of them. Love this pub

В этом районе не так уж много пабов. Этот паб через дорогу от Landmark Hotel, что очень удобно. Не могу найти много отличий от других пивнушек этой страны, разве что кухня здесь тайская. Креветки с рисом очень даже не плохие. Пиво, сидр, обстановка-классика.

Six of us from work went for lunch. Was told repeatedly that the food and bar are two separate businesses so we had to pay a 50p card surcharge per person for each transaction. Was then told I couldn't have a glass of water with my food. I had to buy a drink or leave. I don't drink alcohol at lunch and don't drink soft drinks; so my choice was buy something I didn't want or leave. Rest of my team had already paid so I left to return to the office. We won't be going back despite it being around the corner. Manageress was pretty rude about it too. Such a shame.

Staff are friendly, thai food is great and at a decent price. Wide selection of ales and beers which are decently priced. Information about ales are also displayed. Would recommend.

Visited this afternoon 13/07/15. Pub is clean with friendly bar staff. Food looked and smelt good, although I never ate there. Toilets clean which is always a good sign.....But to be charged £5:80 for a pint of Heineken is an absolute disgrace. Daylight robbery.. Never again.. If you happen to be be in Marlybone use the Duke of York or Duke of wellington. £4:20 and £4:60 a pint instead

The bar staff have always been friendly and welcoming in the 3-4 times that I and a colleague have been there, and the beers are good. However after a kitchen refurbishment, the good ol' English pub grub that we used to go there for has now been discarded (along with the chef) in favour of a Thai menu. Not a good combination for beer or Guinness, IMHO.I can't comment on the quality of the food as we didn't sample it, the few times I've tried before it's always been too spicy for me, and I didn't see any distinction signs between the dishes so could even attempt to navigate the spice minefield here. So sadly we had to finish up our drinks and dine elsewhere that night. I'd still recommend it for drinks, the food is now one for your personal taste however.

Been a few times now but not eaten. Bar staff are really friendly. They have a nice range of real ales including from Rebellion brewery in Marlow ( I was born there- In Marlow -not the brewery!)There are some outside tables and whilst the view is typically London the school in front is low rise and being west facing gets loads of sun. In fact it is a real suntrap.

The Thornbury Castle is a real local pub. It's comfortable, you can sit both inside and out, you can drink, you can eat and drink, you can chat to the bar staff. We tend to try and go there at weekends when it's sunny, so we can sit out. However, the pub is often closed at weekends, and I think it is to do with football or rugger, and I think that the landlords have a place in Brighton that is good for them at weekends. When we do go there, however, be it at weekend or in the week, we always have a very enjoyable drink there.

Tucked away just off the Marylebone Road and opposite the station of the same name is the Thornbury Castle. Its an excellent family-run pub with a good range of real ales and great food cooked to order. They do meals at lunchtimes and evenings, the latter starting at 18.00. If you are eating there at lunchtime then thry and get in before 13.00 as it gets busier. Thoroughly recommended!

My daughter said "you would never believe you were in central London" It was quite busy, many seemed to be regulars or locals, steady buzz of conversation. There was space at the bar and we were served quickly. There was an impressive range of real ales available, all with descriptions to guide the unfamiliar. It's family run, friendly and efficient. No table numbers or wooden spoons, they knew who you were and found you. The food was good as was the beer. Could have been in the countryside. A definite find and one I will visit more often. 12/10

Ended up here with a mate to watch the Steelers live program that was broadcasted from here. Nice local pub with great people and an excellent selection of ales. The only drawback is the rather early time they close compared to what I used to in the Netherlands. Make sure to try the Rebellion Red if they have it on tap!

I had the luck to find this family-owned free-house pub on the evening before the Steelers vs Vikings match at Wembley. It was rammed to the ceiling with excited and happy Steeler fans from both the US and UK, so the atmosphere was electric.Despite this the service was excellent, fast and friendly; the food was well above the normal saturday evening pub nosh standard and sampling a range of at least six well kept real craft ales completed a delightful visit.The owners, Gary & Maggie deserve a great deal of credit for making this pub, hidden away as it is in a side street between the busy Marylebone Road and York street, a must visit venue for anyone who wants to spend a really good evening in a genuine top class British pub.
