The Victoria, Lancaster Gate  

A very fine old fashioned corner pub, inside a little smaller than it looks from the outside, but with a stunning Victorian interior - all etched mirrors, intricate tile work and two fires and the recently repainted exterior adds to the grandeur. Thankfully the fare matches the setting - well-kept Fullers ales, a large, well-priced menu and friendly service. Also of note are the rooms upstairs, a function room that resembles the library of a Gentleman's Club and a bar built from the décor of the demolished Gaiety Theatre's bar (allegedly). Sure, it's plush and opulent but there's still a local pub feel to the place and everyone is made to feel welcome. One of the best in the area and there are some good ones in these parts.
