Great little B&B pub. Clean, warm and really welcoming — exactly what you want after a long day. Rooms were comfortable and well looked after, and the pizza downstairs was great. Would happily stay again.

A very fabulous pub to stay for a weekend away in london. A staff member said myself and my daughter looked lovely as we went out for the evening. Definitely recommend staying here and will be back again. The food was 10 out of 10, good prices. Well maintained and looked after. Didnt hear any noise at all with it been part of a pub.

Older property in excellent neighborhood. Room was dated yet clean with good amenities. Rooms are over a pun/pizzeria yet we heard no noise. Loved walking the area around and immersing into local culture. Quick hop across the bridge and in the heart of London hubs.
