Reviews of The Holy Tavern
F. D. U.A lovely cosy London pub with great beer (St Peters brewery) and an open fire. Dropped in for a couple of cheeky lunchtime beers, plum porter & Irish cream stout which were fantastic. Will definitely visit again soon.
G. G.A unique and very special London pub experience. Fresh beer straight from the barrel in a historic building that makes you think that Pepys and Dickens might walk in any second. Decent pork pies, too!
B. N.A fantastic out of the way pub! Really enjoyed my visit. Good staff.
M. W.Great drinkers pub with good ales. Sadly, we have just got news that the owner of the building has refused to renew the pub lease. The place will no doubt be converted into a bland and bright bar that could be anywhere in the world. R.I.P. JT.
C. M.Absolute Gem. The first thing you see and smell is the fire and that's a rare find in Central London. Looks just like a tavern should look. Feels like a tavern should feel. Great beer
S. P.A supposedly cool pub near The City. Very little space within but this doesn't deter patrons. There were at least twice as many drinking outside as inside. A splendid atmosphere. However, I was disappointed by the choice of only 2 white wines. Surprising.
B. O.The Jerusalem Tavern is the trademark pub for St Peter’s brewery in Suffolk. It offers a wide selection of fresh and bottled craft ales and beers. Other drinks are also available. A food menu is provided and the small, music-free candle-lit wooden interior makes it ideal for a cozy evening or a quiet lunch.
G. D.This back street gem is owned by St Peters brewery
In Suffolk. It’s very cheap for London less than £4.50 a pint. The building dates back from 1700 and the shop front is from 1810. Well worth a visit if you are in the area. Well kept ale. And great chance to taste this breweries beer in one place. Good selection of wines and ciders too. Highly recommended if only to check out the interiors.
T. N.Beautiful and small with friendly staff and a range of beers and wine. It's hidden away in Farringdon but well worth seeking out. The pub is from the 1700's and has quite a few quirks, nooks and crannies.
The joy of this pub is if you're looking for a decent conversation with friends. No blaring music and a good chilled atmosphere.
A. C.One of London's best. Great beers, a nice old-school interior. Can be a bit cramped, but always nice to hang around outside when the weather cooperates.
A. &. S. D.Wonderful no-nonsense jem of a historic London pub .. with a fire too!
K. A.One of my all time favourite London pubs. Cosy, relaxed, lovely looking pub with an excellent selection of St Peters beers.
Consistently first rate.
p. t.What a lovely little pub, each time I come to London it's a pub I always mean to visit.
Good selection of beer and a open fire, what more could you ask for.
Really friendly barman and lovely relaxing atmosphere.
I
G. E.Lovely old pub with a a selection of ales and IPAs on tap. It's tiny inside so hard to get a seat/table but on the summer it's nice to stand outside on the pavement
P. C.St. Peter’s only pub, and it’s a long way from Suffolk, but entirely worth a visit. A beautiful little piece of English history. Try the organic best.
r. k.Quant little pub, very small but huge in character! Staff very friendly. A must visit
J.Brilliant, love all the cask ale and also sell cigars inside. Great vibe
J. H. T.A beautiful and cosy historical pub with real fire. They had Star Wars themed beer. 😁
A. S.Lovely quiet pub with a log fire for cold days. Christmas Ale is excellent

J. H. T.A beautiful and cosy historical pub with real fire. They had Star Wars themed beer. 😁
A. F.No longer run by st peter's brewery. Sad times. Not much beer either.
P. O.Excellent cask beer and great pub. 1st cask of Christmas 2021 ale on tap.
A. M.Great range of ales and real log fire
T. P.Not been there for years, shame on me. Feels convincingly old and great selection of East Anglian beers.
W. F.Friendly staff. Reasonable beer choice. Had the club sandwich and it was very good. Very quiet. Only a few people in there.
P. O.Excellent cask beer and great pub. 1st cask of Christmas 2021 ale on tap.
A. G.St Peter's beer and really nice scampi. Interior feels like it's been untouched since Dickensian times; apart from the hazard marking tape designating Covid safe walking routes.
A. H.Superb real ales kept in perfect conditions. Very small so get here early. Hard to believe the interior is only from 1990, amazing design
R. S.Great small pub owned by St Peter's brewery (the bottles with the wide flattish body and tight neck). Some terrific ales and a couple of craft lagers.
A. F.No longer run by st peter's brewery. Sad times. Not much beer either.
D. L.One of Londons hidden gems. It is well worth checking out not just for the original 18th century interior, the beautiful delft tiles and overall ambience. But also for the fine selection of craft beers.
F. W.Lovely to have a couple of sales from the St Peter's Brewery range. Decent lunchtime food topped off by a stool outside in the sun.
N. H.Awesomely awkward pub, with an intimate bar. Perilously squeeze between punters, furniture, and Pillars. Beer choice could be expanded, however will definitely be returning.
A. M.Fabulous and absolutely genuine brewery owned proper pub.
P. S.Atmospheric, minimal interior which appears as it probably would have been 200 years ago. Good pint too.
G. J. R.Lots of beers, both bottles, taps and casks, a number of small, cozy rooms make this a very nice pub to frequent.
T. P.Not been there for years, shame on me. Feels convincingly old and great selection of East Anglian beers.
a. r.Great beer. Popular. Nice and snug. Obviously a bit emptier than usual.......but in some ways not such a bad thing for the punters. But do feel sorry that they can't let more people in. Must be seriously knocking turnover. So go support them during the day when they're less busy.
W. F.Friendly staff. Reasonable beer choice. Had the club sandwich and it was very good. Very quiet. Only a few people in there.
S.Nice pub, friendly staff, decent pint
r. d.To all other pubs: THIS is a pub. Sorry, but you're an also-ran.
To all visitors from overseas: Yes, this is a pub. Just come to this one and form your opinion of all pubs from The Jerusalem.
Don't, under any circumstances, go into any 'Wetherspoons' pub, or any Ember Inn, Sizzling Pub, in fact basically avoid anything that says 'country pub and eating' outside it.
Any Mitchells & Butler pub is to be avoided. They are not for the likes of you. Unless, of course, you've recently been released from prison.
Just come to The Jerusalem. It's a typical British pub. I promise you. On Boris Johnson's life, I promise you.
M. K.1700s pub, nice inside, good choice of beers. Lad behind the bar was very welcoming. Try it out
A. M. N.The Tavern/Bar is located near the Farringdon Station.
Since the 14th century .The current building dates from 1720.One of the finest pub in London.Seating is very limited.This is the only London outlet for Suffolk-based St Peter Brewery.
C. B.Lovely old pub, very good beers.
d. c.Tiny but interesting recreation of much older pub... good beer selection!
A. V.The management responded to my emails quickly and on this occasion booked us in for a table straight away. We arrived on time and discovered the table was best location in the pub and stayed for over 90 minutes to have a couple of drinks and hot lunch.
I tried the ham eggs and chips, sausage and mash and the fish finger butty and chips. They were all excellent served quickly and hot.
The atmosphere, service, and food were all excellent and it was a great experience for us all.
S. V.Very quiet on a Tuesday afternoon. Good beer, friendly host and the special offer of a pint and scampi and fries for a tenner was good value
B. E.This pub has an old feel about it, although it opened in 1990. The building it is in dates back to 18th Century. A small busy pub in the evenings, so finding a seat might be difficult. The fine selection of beers it serves come from the St. Peters Brewery in Suffolk. I recommend the Plum Porter. The pub does food, but on this occasion I did not dine.
M. F.Cosy historic pub serving top quality range of beers from St. Peter's Brewery
A. M. N.Questo pub si trova zona tube/rail Farringdon. La costruzione risale al 14th century.Has won several awards.Is open every weekday for meals,coffee and a full range of St.Peter beers and ales.Beautiful atmosphere!
S. G.Excellent old pub
Very good beer
K. B.Simply exceptional. The ideal boozer. If you are after a 'boozer'. Quaint. Authentic. Rustic. No pretence. They even sell cigars! This is an old school city pub. I implore everyone to visit if they get the opportunity. Great choice of beer too. Didnt look at the wines or food though.
I. W.A lovely little traditional pub nearish to Farringdon station. It’s great for a few post work pints. The staff are friendly and service moves along quickly, despite the bar area being rather compact. The big downside of this pub is that it is so small! There aren’t many seats and there’s nowhere to really stand inside so you have to stand outside. However, this isn’t a problem in warmer weather and the pub being on a relatively quiet side road allows plenty of space for big groups to comfortably stand outside.
D. H.A small modern version of a 1800s pub. This is a tap room for St Peters brewery, the beer is beautifully kept, representing the brewery's current range. Food looked good, but we didn't try it on our trip. Well worth a visit.
T. L.What an amazing pub! It's absolutely tiny and will remind you of something out of Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings. Great atmosphere, great selection of craft beer and amazing atmosphere. You will be lucky to get a seat so be prepared to stand and move around a bit but it's worth it.
P. C.Historic pub with cozy interior serving the excellent St Peter's beers. Beware, it's not open at weekends.
A. M.Great range of ales and real log fire
R. K.Despite this place not really having the history that the building and interior suggests, this is arguably my favourite pub in London. Another place after a year of meeting friends in soulless bars and chain pubs, that I have chosen to spend my birthday in. You need to get here early to get a table - but never fear, there is a quiet pavement to spill out on to. Great beers from an independent Suffolk brewery and fantastic traditional bar snacks
C. R.I was lucky enough to have my wedding reception here one Saturday in 2010. This is a great little pub packed with character. Great selection of ales and briĺiant bar snack foods. Well done for still being excellent 8 years on!
C. G.The pictures are misleading making it appear much larger than it is, but aside from that, I absolutely love the place. Character is the word I would use. It's small and packed full with professionals, the people who work there are just as awesome as the crowd that hangs there. If I lived in that area, it would be my hangout spot. I loved it that much. It is a perfect blend of simple wood decor and modern flavors on tap. Come early enough and you can eat. Come later and you have a crazy choice in crisps and salami. Again, I loved this place.
B. P.I love St. Peters beers and their London pub was just amazing and perfect. I've visited the one time I was in London and purchased a draught beer as well as two bottles. They have an great selection of St. Peters beers in a charming Victorian-looking pub. My daughter ordered a mousse dessert which was very tasty. I also have loyal friends who have picked up more bottles from this place, and the staff added in other things like coasters, a bar towel, and postcards at no cost.
J. v. U.Great bar, has a good local feel to it and provides a good atmosphere after discovering Londen for a whole day. The staff is friendly and reasonably helpfull but a friendly smile could top it off. When asked for advice which beer to take the waitress wasn't able to get further then cider for the fruity flavours and beer for the bitter flavours.
Yet the cheese platter with 3 cheeses forms a good complementary side-dish with the tasty beers.
It's a bar devided into several smaller rooms which also gives it a more intimate feeling.
N. A.A great watering hole with a good selection of beer. Scrubbed wooden floors and basic wooden bench seats, but this is the attraction of this bar. Pleasant and efficient staff.
J. L.Simple. The best place to drink. Amazing beers. Unique pub and amazing history. Just a must. St Peter's beer great choice and even better taste.
F. M.Lovely little pub, good selection of beers and ciders, friendly and knowledgeable staff
D. C.Old pub but it's hard to tell if it's actually old or if it's meant to feel that way. Any way it has an old feel with some good pints. Get there early if you want one of the few tables they have... If you can get in it is worth it. They have a couple wines nothing extensive.
A. S.An awesome example of traditional English ale and London pub all in one. If you are looking for an unpretentious down to earth traditional London pub you'd struggle to do better. If you are looking for US craft beers and an extensive wine list look elsewhere. The cask beer quality is great, full of flavour and served at the perfect temperature.
C. W.Quirky historic pub full of nooks and crannies, exposed brick walls, wooden galliered seating areas. Stocks a good range of traditional beers from the saint peters brewery. Small, can get crowded but you can drink outside but only with plastic glasses. Not open at the weekend.
G. P.Great beers/ales/ciders (including gf). The pub is small and preservers well an old school feel. Suits crowd the place weekdays after work, but what can you do...beer tastes good regardles :)
P. Z.Opening fully in September but drank outside when visiting today. Friendly as ever with great customer service. Clerkenwells gem of a pub which needs your support.
H. H.A great little tucked away pub. Not far from Farringdon station but just far enough away to dissuade large crowds. They have a great selection of less recognised but very tasty beers. There is often very tempting savoury snacks located on the bar. A very cosy friendly lovely pub.
J. E.I would imagine that anyone discovering this little nook of a pub for the first time, would instantly then make it their favourite in the area. It was certainly that way with me, despite the stiff competition. Staff are friendly, theres a fine selection of beers and if you can't find a seat at one of the few wooden tables, there are always plenty of people milling outside.
A. B.Great atmospheric pub. Can be really busy with the post work crowd, but quietens down pretty quickly and you can usually get a seat after a little while. Some good beer/ale options too.
C. S.If you enjoy beer you may have already heard of this place. It is as good as people say. Can be a bit busy at times but service is always good. And if it's warm you can stand outside. It's best when it's quite as it's very cosy inside. The beer is very good and always worth the visit.
S. D.Excellent warm and friendly pub. St Peter's Ales are difficult to get hold of where we are from in the North East of England. The barman was very knowledgable and recommended excellent beers. Good mix of customers. Defibately recommend it.
R. M.It's always a pleasure to have a beer or two in the Jerusalem. You do not go for the decor, but for a great range of ales, in good condition and for the atmosphere of knowing ale drinkers have sat where you are for hundreds of years. What's not to like.
A. N.A proper London pub with some great St Peters ales. Only place in London with them on tap as far as I know. Perfect winter pub with a fire and a places to conspire. Small and very busy during prime after work times. Come early for a seat and to enjoy the best of the atmosphere. Awful for big groups - don't rage if 5 of you come at 7 on a Friday. Try Ye Olde Mitre or the Cittie of York if not!
A. B.Always great ales. Has never changed over the last two decades and doesn't need to. If you enjoy classic English ales brewed to the highest standard then you won't be disappointed
J.Less than 10 minutes walk from Farringdon Station . Small.,Great Service, Real Ale pub..St Peter's Wall to Wall. Other tipples are available..Can be busy but the bar staff work like the devil to keep the customers topped up. Recommend a visit as I always make a detour when in London.
D. C.Like stepping back in time, No TV, No Music, No fizzy lager, No alcopops.
This is a proper old-fashioned pub, with a good choice of Ales from St Peter's Brewery. They do very good scotch eggs, make sure to get there early as this place gets amazingly busy, or. you'll probably end up drinking outside on the street with the other patrons. Recommended
渡.Good boozer, but you gotta drink out of plastic if you are outside. I'll come again because the beers are good and the staff cool, but stay inside. No man should ever have to drink out of a plastic pint glass. That's inhumane.
J. Q.Snug with an open fire and excellent stout
C. C.Fantastic beer selection and a great atmosphere. A small pub with little seating but my favourite for a long time
B. M.Good beer good ambience good place
Good choice
G. R.Historical place for a delicious drink. Plenty of options for beers and ciders. Didn't try the food but pies looked amazing! Really recommended in a quiet, yet wonderful, area of London.
N. D.Perennial favourite on a late spring evening, cramped inside but plenty of space outside on street. Good range of St Peter's beers and a couple of guests beers.
S. R.This pub oozes atmosphere - like a particularly good country pub in the heart of the city. Wonderful in winter with a real fire. Excellent beer and friendly staff.
C. G.What a hidden gem. St Peter's Brewery ales at reasonable prices (for London). Enormous salt beef sandwich for 7 quid, again good VFM for the area. Friendly barman.
J. B.A marvellous place to drink a pint of the best beers in the area! Time stopped here in early 18th century. Although it began as a pub in 1990, it preserves the same floors and furniture since its foundation. A small and crowded place, but an unmissable one to know London's amazing past.
R. F.I like this little place. Fantastic beer selection, friendly faces and pleasant atmosphere. Finding somewhere to sit or stand can be tough but on a good night it's nice to drink outside on the quiet street.
C. P.Wonderful old pub, decent beer. Menu could have been a bit more varied. A sign at the front door mentioned pies but there were none on the menu.
J.A bucket list historic, traditional pub. Tiny, and popular. So be prepared to cozy up to strangers. Decent draught beer selection; more 'traditional' than 'craft', but that's the nature of the place.
M. S.It's a neat place to hang out. They have food trucks coming everyday with different food. The price is fair for the beer. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable about the products. High energy place
J. H.On a stag weekend with my Norwegian friends and spent an afternoon in this pub. It was a great experience however maybe some of the beers werent as good as they could have been. Some of the guys were saying that maybe the beer wasnt carbonated as well as they should have been. Im not a beer expert, but the staff were friendly and very helpful they whole time. Definitely worth a visit.
B. S.I love the JT. Tiny inside but full of history. Great selection of St. Peter's Brewery beers from the cask and bottle. Pretty tough getting a seat at busy times.
This place is ideal for a private party.
M. S.Awesome typical old pub with tasty beers
g.Really special little pub, hard to find but worth the effort. Tiny inside, but with great beers and a small but perfectly formed menu.
W. S.A very traditional pub in a handy spot - just remember that this corner of town is only open during the week! The beer selection is fabulous and the pub itself is a classic higgledy-piggledy jem!
T. S.The Jerusalem Tavern in Farringdon is an amazing independent pub with an extremely warm, homely feel (wood floors, original fireplaces, and the likes). Food is served between 12-3pm for under £10! But the best part is, the pints are under £4! Nothing fancy here, just a great, historic pub that serves delicious beer from St. Peter's Brewery. Perfect for after work, or any time really!

D. S.Easily the best pub in the area! It's tiny quiet and, like it's location, has lots of tucked away little nooks and crannies to hide yourself into, if you are lucky enough to get a table (if not there is always the calm of Britton Street outside.) It belongs next to the St john's Arch, and with both dating from the early 1700s is much easier than kitting out a DeLorean for time travel.
There's always an array of ales served from miniature barrels behind the bar, and a stack more in bottles if you are the fussy type. Doorstop sandwiches and pork pies if you are hungry - win all over.
T. W.The Jerusalem Tavern a small, (very) old pub, always seem packed after work. That's principally because its tiny inside with an awkward interior and you usually end up standing out the front of the pub. Don't let that put you off - They serve great beer all from St Peter's brewery (some from gravity taps in the wall), it goes down well with the pork scratching or salami they offer on the side.
J. W.Small bar full of serious beer fans. No music and all the beer comes from the St Paul brewery in Suffolk. So it's a bit different and a welcome change to the brasher bars in the area.
B. O.The Jerusalem Tavern is like stepping back in time, we visited yesterday lunchtime and it was an oasis of tranquility in an otherwise hectic London. The small interior is split into various drinking rooms and at different levels; it is atmospherically dingy and maintains a feeling of antiquity in its wooden furniture that many would have condemned to the skip years ago. The Jerusalem is tied to the St Peter's Brewery of Bungay, Suffolk and has seven ales on stillage and a sixteen in bottles - alas, on our crawl we only had time for one pint and the porter was fantastic and very well priced. The welcome was warm, the ale well-kept and very reasonably priced. All in all a fantastic experience of a pub and well worth seeking out. 2009 Town Pub of the Year.
T. K.Nice space really and great selection of beers and gin. Not a ton of place to hit, but when has that stopped anyone from cramming in :) they serve food as well.
R. C.After a decade of buying their beers from the brewery I finally got to drink in the pub. Great assortment of beers but a bit surprised to see it so quiet on a sunny Friday lunchtime so close to offices
C. C.Brilliant as usual, nice range of beers on and the fire has now been lit. Good autumn beer available on draught at the bar, winter is certainly on its way.
A. G.Love this pub even though it's usually very busy. Good beer and old world atmosphere. For some reason this pub always makes me think of Charles Dickens
A. S.Like lots of old pubs in the area, Jerusalem Tavern is small and narrow. It also happened to be very busy the night I went, so it felt incredibly claustrophobic. You'll be lucky to find a seat, even luckier to grab a table. And thanks to the winding passages prevalent in this area, it was incredibly difficult to find. We almost abandoned The Jerusalem Tavern as a myth before stumbling upon it in a back street.
But if you're blessed with better spatial awareness than me, you'll find that The Jerusalem Tavern is a really lovely place to spend a couple of hours after work.
And there really is a stuffed fox in a glass cabinet. Nice talking point, that.
C. M.Austere looking pub in Farringdon serving the widest range of St Peter's beers in cask, keg and bottles. Superb.
M. W.Housed in a former 18th Century clock maker's workshop, which became a Georgian-style coffee shop in the 1990s, this tiny pub has great atmosphere; good food (salads, salt beef sandwiches, various pies) and tempting beer choices from the Suffolk-based St Peters Brewery.
D. H.Lovely traditional pub serving great beers.
M. P.Tiny and old Pub, looks like it's full of history, and off course excellent st peters beers. You'll find fruit beer, organic, gluten free, smoky, etc...I definitely would like to live around a place like that.
J. F.Great beers, great bar man. Great step back in time pub. Should be on your list to visit for London pubs.
K. H.Great beer and food accompanied by entertaining staff, this is by far my favourite pub in London. Warning it's hard to get a seat in this place as it is tiny, but this adds to the character of the place.
J. N.A favourite because it is slightly out of the way, does great beer and is always the right side of busy to enjoy yourself. And it feels like a proper pub!
S. S.So close to work and only taken me 4 years to visit. Small, perfectly formed with lots of enclaves. Good selection of craft ales. Get there early for a seat though.
K. B.Paid my 1st visit to this little pub last week. It's a warm and friendly pub which serves good beer. It's a definite keeper & one I will be returning to.
G. L. P.Wetherspoon’s this is not. Jerusalem Tavern was built on England’s green and pleasant land, ages ago. 1720 to be precise (although, for the history police, the present pub has only been open since 1996). It’s full of creaky crooks and crannies with an outstanding array of real ales on tap.
Not really enough room to swing a cocker spaniel but that’s ok because the crowd spills out onto the street outside. The beer on offer is from St Peter's Brewery in Suffolk, served from several small wooden casks stationed behind the bar. From fruity ones to organic ones, though sadly they don’t count as your 5-a-day. on that, the food is very simple, hearty and gastro.
From the firkins to the fireplace, this place is as a pub should be. Wooden tables. Wooden floors. Real ale. No music. And no TV. Ripe for real conversations and setting the world to right.
Now, bring me my pint of burning gold.
Thanks for the tip off: Andrew Gough and Jenny Rose.
R. W.Small, vibrant, traditional, claustrophobic, cozy, packed, elbow to elbow, cheek by jowl. Great old London boozer for a couple of post-work beers. Ideal for those with a very small group of friends.
S. W. R.The beer was great. It was also very hot and crowded. I have to wonder if it has safe exit points in an emergency. Staff were lovely.
G. M.One of the few pubs that sells gluten free ale (in a bottle), and at a reasonable price. An absolute godsend for a coeliac who likes beer.
D. R.The Jerusalem Tavern (or JT to the regulars) is a wonderful public house. Historic, full of tradition, quirky and most importantly, great ales on tap. The staff are so welcoming and work on a first name basis. The food is to die for and I can highly recommend the burger and potato wedges or the pork sandwich with crackling... mmm...
H. D.Lovely little local pub, tasty beers on tap and a great lunch at reasonable prices. Highly recommended.
J. S.This is the nearest pub to where I work in London, and I can say I am blessed as this is probably the best pub in the world. I am tempted to give it one star to put off people from going there as it is small and busy, but if you go off-peak then it's all good. A pub to while away the hours in. Wish I was there right now.
A. T.Great pub. Lots of locals and awesome atmosphere with people standing outside rain or shine because of the popularity. One of the bartenders, Emma, is the best.
H. W.Amazing pure Dickensian outlet for Sudbury's Still Peter's Ales. One of London's top 10 pubs for character sans doubt!! In an architecturally absorbing street ( find the house that Janet Street Porter built ) in uber groovy Clerkenwell. Go! Go! Go!
S. B.Old fashioned CAMRA pub with excellent St Peter's Cask Ale. Need I say more. Also hat a lovely coal fire.
T. M.A fantastic watering hole, atmospheric and and substantially as it was opened back in the early 18th century. Great ales and stuff and a good - traditional - kitchen.
C. J.Great atmosphere with a Good range of beers. All in all, a lovely little pub.
D. W.Old Historic Pub in Clerkenwell. Run by St Peter's brewery. Sadly never been a big fan of their beers but its a nice old pub
R. S.Very small pub but wow what an amazing place to drink. Great ales and really friendly staff.
R. W.Gorgeous, quaint little pub with some fairly unique brews not available elsewhere in London
J. B.Used to be a great place to chill at the end of the day when the offices were still open. Fingers crossed it weathers the storm.
J. Y.Super cosy with great real ale selection (st peters brewery).
P. S.Another atmospheric City of London pub. Small and frequently crowded. Good range of St Peter's brewery ales.
D. H.Brilliant pub. Tucked away from the London tourists. Booths for people who want to chat. Nice beer selection.
J. H.Different! Nicely low-key - not a "locals only" pub, bit not a destination pub either. Something nice about the unpretentiousness of it in that area is refreshing and honest!
E. j.Great beer, wonderful pub, a fantastic place for a pint or two in unpretentious pub heaven
C. D.Wonderfully atmospheric boozer housed in an 18th-century coffee shop. Very small though, so getting inside the place is difficult ... let alone finding a table!
J. G.A great little place with off-beat Dickensian charm. Good selection of beers and ciders too, from old-favourites to new discoveries.
S. K.Great Beer. Good food. Real Ale. Traditional Pub. 5 minutes from Farringdon station
S. L.Always fantastic. Unique selection of beer. Very cosy in the colder months.
S. S.A real hidden away gem, though close to Smithfield Market/Fabric, so you've probably passed nearby without knowing it was there. A lot like having a drink with friends in someone's house from the 19th century. Strongly recommended.
S. D.Wonderful pub. Full of character and great St Peter's brewery beers
R. F.Remarkable how many review this pub as "historic" and "very old".
(This version) opened in the mid 1990s.
Great boozer nonetheless. Can't fault it.
S. K.Need to get in early to get a seat. Nice range of St Peters beers. Fantastic old pub.
C. B.Good beer and great atmosphere. Proper old pub.
J. G.Highly unpretentious with a good vibe in one of my favorite neighborhoods. Their private line of St. Peters lagers are great
D. B.Fabulous place for quiet beers. I will be back!
V. A.Atmospheric pub with a quite unique for London selection of beers for reasonable price, friendly staff.
T. W.Fabulous building with great selection of craft and draft ales
P. M.Great pub. Wooden walls. You feel like it could be 100 years ago. Good be beer and atmosphere.
C. C.Little cosy pub with the nice beers of St Peter's brewery. Good pub food as well. Probably my favourite in the Clerkenwell area.
