Local cuisineLocals' pick

Landlord Oisin Rogers (ex-Guinea Grill), Charlie Carroll and chef Ashley Palmer-Watts restored this pub off Piccadilly Circus: Guinness drinkers spill onto Denman Street, and upstairs a wood-fired Grill Room and Claret Room serve robust British food.

Good to know

  • A pint of Guinness on the pavement is the local way; the pub food downstairs is excellent even without a booking (Hot Dinners).
  • Tables upstairs are very hard to get: book far ahead.
  • Order something from the fire, like the Iberico pork ribs, and the sticky toffee pudding.
