The Yorkshire Grey in City of London, Westminster

This was about the most amazing dinner I’ve had in England. Fantastic pies, and a wonderful appetizer. Bangers and mash was delightful as well. No need for seasoning, everything comes perfect as is, and the portion sizes are fully enough. I’m entranced with this place and its dinners, plus the cider is to die for! I will definitely visit again.

Horrible experience dealing with the management. Blame each other as a kids garden. Managers only on paper!!!!

Dropped in for a quick pint. Sam Smith pub - absolutely the best stout there is. Quiet lunchtime in the bar, open fire. Lovely spot, not far from Oxford Street but a welcome escape.

Visited yesterday to discover to my horror that they've ripped the handpumps out and substituted the dreaded gas taps on the bar. So no real ale and Sam's premium ale, the Old Brewery Bitter, is now nothing more than an undrinkable fizzy abomination. What a way to treat a once wonderful pint. What a way to treat the loyal customer base. It's the Hat and Stick over the road for me from now on.

Unfortunately the Sam Smiths bitter was sour this evening, staff were friendly enough. The pub is nice but to be honest the beer was awful, well mine was anyway.

Three of us decided to sample pubs in the 'Fitzrovia' district and popped in to what we discovered was a hidden jewel. A great looking pub, spotlessly clean with a charming couple behind the bar. Thanks for your kind hospitality - we'll be back soon.

Warm welcome by great staff and great beer go a very long way! We were staying in the hotel opposite and this pub was always nicely busy without being crowded or rowdy, the traditional decor makes this place that little bit special too. Worth seeking out.

I ordered via just eat and they completely messed up my order. When I got in contact with the manager Andrea she was extremely helpful and polite! Her customer service is amazing and I order from here frequently. She is by far the best manager the store has. Thank you Andrea.

I know there was a lot of confusion over the covid rules in pubs but I was felt at unease when I sat down on a stool to drink my pint . The staff looked shifty ams nervous and I was brought a pint I did not order which annoyed me. Then I went to stand up to check my money the manager came over as quick as a flash and said I must sit down .. I left my pint and left the pub. Seems a lot of the Sam Smith staff and management were over zealous and seemed to have enjoyed there short lived bout of authoritarian power during the covid period

Went in for a few lunch time drinks after a shopping trip to the west end, if you like good beer Sam Smiths will have a beer that you will like, the staff are really friendly and very knowledgeable, I sampled a few....maybe a few to many, if thats possible, but wasnt driving so all good really. The pub is owned but Sam Smith Brewery and they have strict rules, but this makes it a really nice place to sit back enjoy a nice pint and have a conversation with a human being rather than a mobile phone.

Never again. This establishment has lost its pizzazz, its charm and its welcoming atmosphere. The New Covid19 rules have set the staff ablaze with Authoritarian attitude, which sets the atmosphere on edge and gives the feeling of being watched for every movement that we make. Trying to enjoy our time there was met with constant glances in our direction every time we shifted in our seats. Being told we must remain in our seats at all times regardless is a frenzied powertrip for the overbearing manager. Getting up out of our chairs caused hysteria until we stated we were actually on the way to the door to leave. Shamefaced embarrassment for them to assume we were loitering around the table aŕea after our drink. The staff panic at everything and it shows. It really does not bode well for their future livelihoods and future of the business. Loosen up a little, let your customers enjoy their time they have paid into supporting your business, they abide by the rules, but you need to let us breathe whilst there, just not down our necks.

I came to The Yorkshire Grey for a quiet drink on a September evening and overall I was impressed. Drinks were reasonably priced, the atmosphere was nice as well as the staff being friendly and making a great recommendation of a beer. This pub is part of the Sam Smith's chain and only serves their beers (which are all relatively good), which may put some people off. Overall The Yorkshire Grey is a great choice for a pint in London.

We had a nice couple of pints and a meal in the Yorkshire Grey yesterday. The staff are brilliant, they came and told us when the upstairs was open for food orders, and the barman in charge of the upstairs was absolutely excellent. He dealt with a busy space, dispensing food and drinks calmly and efficiently. Two blind lads in for a meal had excellent service, this member of staff talked them through the menu, described where everything was on their plates and even helped them when they needed to find the loo. All done with true professionalism, we were extremely impressed. Our food was good too!

Actually bought the building opposite at the asking price some years back but due to an oaf in our team who gazundered the deal lost the chance to spy the preeners who frequent this hapless space.

We were staying across the rod and popped in here for a drink, was absolutely delighted to find this was a Sam Smiths pub! Good beer, great staff and that lovely "proper old London boozer" vibe. Recommended.

Not a regular have been visiting incognito for 40 years nothing much changes so will continue to drop by as and when in need of some liquid libation.

Just been to this great little pub for a meal in the upstairs restaurant. We discovered The Yorkshire Grey whilst looking for somewhere to eat for our last night in London. It seemed a bit of an omen as I am an exiled Yorkshire lass so we went in to see if we could reserve a table. We were met by the lovely manager Dennis who said he would reserve a table for this evening. As vegetarians we were pleased to see we would be well catered for, and indeed my Greek salad and my husbands cheese and potato pie were excellent. The service was quick and efficient and the barman/ waiter upstairs was fabulous. Thank you both for an amazing meal and such friendly service. We will certainly be back next time we visit London and would have no hesitation in recommending The Yorkshire Grey to anyone looking for a great pub with fabulous food.

This is a really great pub! Very local and the staff is very friendly and helpful. They have great variety of beers and they can accompany you in any way.

El personal aquí es excelente y, después de haber navegado por el pequeño laberinto, es muy acogedor y amigable. Los bancos afuera son geniales en verano, ya que están en una verdadera trampa solar. Al ser un bar de Sam Smith, no encontrará las marcas comunes de bebidas, pero lo que se ofrece tiene un precio razonable para el área y todo es realmente agradable. Para una configuración más única, continuaré regresando y es ciertamente una gema oculta.

Abbiamo visto questo locale mentre stavamo raggiungendo a piedi Covent Garden da Bakerloo. Il personale gentilissimo ed il cibo buono Consigliato

Pedimos comida en el restaurante de arriba y cada comida salió 20 minutos una después de la otra. Esto se debe a la falta de personal en la cocina. Cuando el camarero finalmente nos sirvió la comida, ¡no trajo cubiertos ni servilletas y no ofreció si necesitábamos salsas! Estábamos realmente decepcionados con esto, ya que estábamos tarde para volver al trabajo. No éramos los únicos en el restaurante para sentirnos así. Muy decepcionado ya que el pub tiene un ambiente muy agradable. No volveré

Nous sommes montés à l'étage pour un "quick lunch" et on y resté une heure! L'ambiance était chaleureuse: des bacheliers célébraient la collation des grades. Plusieurs sont même venus discuter avec nous. La bière était bonne et la bouffe de pub correcte. Le jeune proprio s'est aussi arrêté quelques minutes. On a beaucoup apprécié.

nice tucked away pub in the heart of London. Friendly staff and excellent selection of drinks. Can sometimes be very crowded and have to stand in the street with drinks!

Nice old school bar in the centre. There is a good selection of drinks and food. It was particularly busy on a Friday night.

A cozy little pub that served great food from friendly staff, all the while providing great ambiance for good conversation and a relaxing evening.

Notre expérience est assez particulière puisque nous avons dîné ici juste après noël, à un moment très particulier de l'année... C'est donc un avis à considérer selon le moment où vous souhaitez vous rendre au Yorkshire Grey car la barmaid nous a dit qu'une semaine avant à la même heure, le pub était bondé et que nous n'aurions pas pu dîner... En tous les cas, en cette fin de journée le pub était quasiment vide et nous avons pu profiter pleinement d'un coin de cheminée pour boire une bonne bière et manger un fish'n'chips et autres très bons plats classiques servis par une équipe très sympa et qui avait à coeur de nous accueillir. Nous avons eu la possibilité de dîner avec notre jeune fils malgré le fait que cela soit un pub. Ambiance chaleureuse, bonne cuisine, cadre parfait, calme; c'était notre dernière soirée à Londres et elle restera dans nos cœurs comme un excellent moment! Merci, mille mercis!

Popped in here with some colleagues for some drinks before heading off to a posh do. What a surprise, a lovely old pub with a good selection of Sam Smiths beer, an open fire, no music and a great atmosphere.

Une salle au rez-de-chaussée pour se désaltérer et une salle à l'étage pour se restaurer. C'est un joli pub qui propose des plats traditionnels comme le fish and chips ou mash and bangers. Les assiettes sont copieuses, l'accueil est chaleureux et le service est rapide.

Uno de los pocos lugares que he encontrado en Londres que ofrecen comida tradicional real.

Lovely little Sam Smith's pub with tonnes of character. Great selection of ales and lagers and it's a really cosy place. No thumping music so you can have a decent conversation. Proper London pub!

Contratamos el Yorkshire Yorkshire para una recepción nocturna. Un gran lugar para una fiesta con comida encantadora y amable personal del bar. Teníamos c 75 en el bar de abajo y había mucho espacio para todos. Buena ubicación central y gran pub para una fiesta o evento de trabajo

Tuve que viajar a Londres para trabajar en muy poco tiempo. Me registré en mi hotel a primera hora de la noche y me moría de hambre. Encontré el Yorkshire Grey cerca, estaba animado (ruidoso) en la planta baja, pero estaba dispuesto a desafiarlo por la comida. Me dijeron cortésmente que la comida se servía en el piso de arriba. Un paraíso, con solo un miembro del personal listo y esperando para servirme. Opté por un curry tailandés, una excelente opción, realmente bueno (¡como el vino!) Todo muy buen valor también - 10/10.

Dejó aquí para un almuerzo de trabajo. El principal camarero era agradable y nos dijo acerca de la historia del lugar.

Abandoné un jueves por la tarde con mi buena esposa. Hay una buena selección de cerveza, pero solo 2 en las bombas adecuadas. El personal del bar no parecía demasiado interesado en participar o responder preguntas sobre la cerveza, así que tomé una punt y tuve una IPA bastante normal. En la parte superior, encontramos una mesa cómoda y era bastante tranquila y agradable.

Lovely pub (and surprisingly quiet at lunchtime) with good food served. I had a tasty Angus burger and enjoyed every bite of it. Good selection of beers as well, and friendly and relaxed atmosphere. A hidden gem.

We dropped on for a drink, but didn't eat. It's a lovely local pub with an open fire and bags of character. Really quaint, very traditional and a perfect reminder of how local.pubs were and should be.

Después de un largo día de reuniones, The Yorkshire Grey fue un excelente lugar para tomar una cerveza y conversar. Si bien hay muchos pubs para elegir en Londres, si buscas el ambiente de un pub inglés tradicional, dale una oportunidad.

Whilst it's not my ideal place to go to lunch, I do like going there where I can, and today was one of those days. It's a very short walk to work, and I like the relaxed atmosphere. Whilst it can be too quiet, I find listening to music makes it a lot better.

Distribuir de un montón de gente aquí para dejar de beber. Me dijo que no podia empezar una ficha porque tenían "problemas" en el pasado. Decidimos comer y me dieron la comida equivocada. Me dijeron que mi amigo había pedido algo más (aunque otro amigo lo oyó el orden correcto que hicieron). Bar dijo que el bistec y el riñón budín pedí sería más tarde. Después de que todos los demás habían terminado de comer y me preguntó si ella volvió todo estaba bien con la comida. Me dijeron que no era como me habían dado la orden equivocado (respaldado por otros dos miembros de nuestro grupo que había visto el orden que hicieron). Me preguntó qué quería. Pedí mi orden original. Persona en el bar hizo un punto de decirnos que no dan órdenes equivocada (Persona bar siempre está a la derecha). So. Me dieron mi orden después de que todos los demás habían terminado de comer y nos cambiaron mi tarta, pero me dieron la placa misma de patatas y verduras de 30 minutos antes. Budín de carne y riñón estaba seco y vacío y no vale la pena la espera. Sé que este es un pub tradicional, pero el servicio y la comida me sentí como un viaje atrás en el tiempo a cuando el Reino Unido era un lugar terrible para comer fuera. Hay literalmente miles de sitios mejores para comer en Londres y todo el mundo merece descubrir. Evitar a menos que te guste la comida mala y el servicio.

Loved the fruity cider :) Came here for a couple of drinks after our work christmas party. The atmosphere was buzzing

Es un pub que significa Sam Smith una buena gama de cervezas a precios razonables.

Fabulous, Sam Smith's beer has been around for a very long time and travels really well from its Tadcaster home. At £3.10 a pint the price is true Yorkshire and it is outstanding value for London. Lovely pub, efficient service and a decent pint ....perfect.

£3. 20 Por pinta de amargo. ¿Qué más necesitas en Londres. Sin música, sin televisión, sólo conversación. No hay marcas o todo es Sam Smiths de la grúa a la tónica.

Una visita a Londres es a menudo traumáticas, un lugar para comer o tomar una caña es un campo minado que a menudo sopla justo en su cara. En una reciente visita a asistir a una grabación de radio tuvimos una hora para matar y encontramos este pub a un par de minutos de la BBC.

The Yorkshire Grey is a popular working pub with a bustling atmosphere downstairs and a more quiet restaurant area upstairs; serving great traditional pub food and a wide selection of Yorkshire beers from Sam Smith's brewery at some of the cheapest prices you'll find anywhere in London. Definitely will be back!

We went to the Yorkshire Grey for lunch, the staff were welcoming and the pub itself had a comfortable feel to it, very unlike the average service and surrounding that you get from many large chain establishments now. The food was a standard and traditional basic lunch, exactly what we wanted and very reasonably priced, as were the drinks. I felt as though I was thrown back into another era, giving me a traditional London pub experience that I always enjoy.

I was just walking by here and was hungry so i decided to have lunch here.I ordered a buger, the meat was brunt and inedible with a bun that was soggy from wet lettuce leaves. If that was not bad enough the chips were raw.I asked a waiter if i could have a new bugger or a refund, and i was refused as i had one bite out of it! Unbelievable! you could see that meat pattie was brunt i was so hungry i just took a bite without looking. I really do not see what the problem with with my request was.I think they really need to retrain their front and back of house staff.I hate having to write a bad review as I am sure they work hard but I totally feel that my experience totally justifies 1 star or worst.

Been a few times and if it's quiet then it's not a bad place for a quiet pint and people watch. However if there are more than a three customers the cracks begin to show. Expectionally slow service with little bar awareness. On the most recent visit ten of us showed up for lunch, there were large tables reserved, but we'd found spare tables anyway. We all lined up at the bar for food and drink however the staff barely moved to serve us. After we started to order food the manager informed us that he couldn't take food orders because he had reservations for lunch. We wondered what this meant? Can they only cater for 1/2 the seating area of the pub? If so why didn't he tell us earlier instead of allowing us to waste 15 minutes trying to get served. What a waste of time! Have eaten there before, portions are on the small size and the food is unexceptional for the price. Bless em they try and do gastro-grub but it's never a great experience. After a few months we thought we'd give it a second go. Our mistake. Given the range of great places in the area the Yorkshire is one to avoid. Details: No smoking area, don't know if outside drinking is allowed, uncomfortable chairs, bargain styling, cafeteria vibe, below average service.

Excelente y nada caro. Un imperdible de Londres son estos pubs tradicionales, tan bien decorados que te transportan en el tiempo. Excelentes las cervezas

Old fashioned pub which feels dated rather than quaint. Popular for drinks outside in a sunny day but don't eat here. Food is clearly cooked from frozen and is very poor quality.

We stopped in for drinks after work. This is a great little pub serving Samuel Smiths ales. It's reasonably priced with good service and a great atmosphere.

They provided me with an excellent space for some work leaving drinks. Staff were friendly and attentive and the beer is very good value. Totally recommend.

My friend and I stumbled upon this, and being from Yorkshire myself I was immediately attracted to the name. We initially went in the downstairs area which was busy with people, no music, but panelling, little nooks to tuck into, beautiful traditional decor. We however wanted food, so went upstairs to the dining room. Its not table service, you order at the bar, but the staff were friendly and helpful, and the food was simply delicious. I had the steak and bitter pie with mash, it arrived quite quickly and I savoured every delicious mouthful! Will definitely be going back as soon as possible.

Pub à la décoration traditionnelle hors des circuits touristiques offrant la possibilité de se restaurer à l'étage. Bonne cuisine typique avec pies, hamburgers, fish & chips... On y sert de la Samuel Smith. Prix très corrects. A découvrir.

Small, but perfectly formed little pub. Even though I never lived any where near it, whenever I'm in London it feels like I've come back to my local as it's where many of my colleagues hang out.

This quintessential English Pub, in the heart of London, is time travel back to the Victorian era. The ambiance and decor are amazing with glass panels and period furniture, you don't have to be a tourist to enjoy the pub from the past.

we were staying at the nobby soulless hotel across the road, I popped in for a couple of refreshments from 6-830pm on a Friday night, great helpful friendly staff, quality ale and a great location

This has become our "local" when staying in London. The bar prices are very reasonable and the food is good, old fashioned comfort food.

Nice traditional pub in Foley Street close to Regents Street, Oxford Street but off the beaten track for most tourists. If you're in to your Samuel Smith pubs, ales and lagers, then this is a good place for you. Nice decor, standing areas outside,

Arranged to meet here with some clients whilst on a brief trip into London.Food was great and the at tentative service even better.Happy to go again and recommend to others!

The downstairs pub is a local of some character in this little known area somewhat off the normal tourist track. This encouraged me to book a table for lunch in the upstairs dining room for a small party of friends. The upstairs room is bright and welcoming but we were off to a bad start in finding that our booking had somehow been logged for the day earlier than our visit. However, this was quickly resolved as there were only two other tables occupied and we were soon shown to our table. The menu prices are cheap for central London and consists of classic pub favourites. Things did not improve when we were told that the only draft beer available was the premium bitter, in spite of the fact that the menu was offering at least three options. Two of us ordered chicken and ham pies, the others steak and kidney puddings but the latter were delivered to table as steak pies. The fillings of all pies were tasty but the pastry was challenging to eat to say the least. Pastry does not re-heat well in a microwave. The only bright spot was the nicely cooked side dishes of chips and fresh seasonal vegetables, curiously something on which so many other establishments fail. Finally, a full 30 minutes before the restaurant was to close at 3pm, to follow our meal we ordered coffee only to be told this was not possible as they had no milk or sugar! As none of us take milk or sugar we did manage to coax our coffees out of our waitress.One almost had the impression that our presence here was a bit of an inconvenience; maybe eating in the downstairs bar would have been a better experience.On the basis of our visit I feel that I am being generous in giving The Yorkshire Grey an Average rating, but reading others' comments maybe we just caught them on a bad day.

The Yorkshire Grey is a pub that looks very traditional. We tried the beef burgers and salads for dinner and it was a good experience. We were 5 people and we paid around 65£ (drinks and coffee included!) in total, so it's not expensive for a place in the centre of London. The lady that served us was very friendly. Also, the beer is very good!

Dining on the sidewalk is hige in London. Second only two sharing and downing brew.This is a very fun place and very well located. Full of history.

Un restaurant calme, très sympa et cosy.Nous avons été servis très rapidement par une équipe très sympathique et attentif.Le repas était excellent et la présentation aussi.

Loved this traditional little pub tucked away in the heart of fitzrovia. The landlady was super friendly and happy to share information on the history of the area. Lots of interesting photos in the upstairs bar. Full range of traditional Samuel smiths ales on tap and the food is hearty and delicious. Can recommend the burgers and pulled pork and cider pie. Proper home made pub grub at a very reasonable price. Well worth seeking out.

Liked this a lot - great place for a quick drink in the summer, good outside area. Has function room upstairs

Good selection of Samuel Smiths draft and bottle Beers, with local Atmosphere, busy when the local work is finished

Went into Yorkshire Grey for lunch as we do regularly, changed management. Gone far downhill. Menu says things are included when they try and charge extra. Attitude of staff when challenged was awful. Will not be coming back.

We stopped in here for a quick pint instead of going to one of those coffee shops or chain pubs. A very traditional London pub how they should be serving Yorkshire ales etc. I had an organic lager and my partner had a cider which we drank outside !

Very noisy lively atmosphere . Pub has so much character and original features . We stayed across road and called in every night for a night cap to round the evening off .

Really pleasant atmosphere and generally plenty of room. Outside area is fabulous in summer and upstairs gives a place to sit when downstairs is hoppin'. Decent selection of beers at lower price than most London pubs.

This is a genuine London pub in a quiet street just a bit away from the hussle and bussle of Oxford Circus. Great service, good selection of drinks (not just the mainsteam) and a nice place to sit outside.

Cosy pub with great service & fantastic Organic beers.I had 3 & a half pints of the best Organic Lager I have ever had & no problems the next day.Good quality peanuts & crisps.We stayed late & still the staff were friendly!Clean toilets too.

Located about a 5 minute walk from Oxford Street tube station this Samuel Smith pub is a lovely quiet old fashioned place which serves a good range of organic beers. The pub has a small outside pavement seating area and a wonderful historic interior with leather chairs and benches and wooden paneling with cut glass screens. The pub is spotlessly clean and the service friendly. We have often dropped in on a Saturday afternoon and never once found it busy. It's a great place to visit when you are all shopped out!

If you want to experience a real traditional London pub, then this is one to try.Great range of beers/lagers and excellent staff.

We popped in for some drinks before eating in the area and liked it enough to go back again later. Friendly staff. Old fashioned decor (a typical London pub). Offers a good selection (around 20) of Samuel Smith beers.

In a very typical tourist scenario, walking up & down the bustle of Oxford street; Shopping, shopping and in dire need of drink and a decent lunch – recognise the feeling?This was situation and I was looking for a typical British public house. We decided to leave Oxford Street and a try the side streets. Walking along Oxford Street, from New Oxford Street towards Oxford Circus tube station, we turned right just before Oxford Circus tube station, up Great Portland Street and found this pub on the corner in Langham Street. I can recommend having a typical British pub lunch in The Yorkshire Grey. On the first floor, upstairs, we discovered a genuine (positively speaking) old-look pub room. Their beef pie was a very good meal. The pub had a nice and quite setting, with a friendly staff. The beer is predominately Samuel Smith, a good Yorkshire pint. They also have the correct selection of the Tadcaster bottled Stouts and Porters to accompany the meals. On the basis of this one visit and lunch, I can highly recommend a visit.
