how to find it:

From Westminster: Come out of the station and walk past the Houses of Parliament, keeping them on your left. Walk parallel to the River Thames until you reach the next bridge (Lambeth Bridge). At the roundabout turn right into Horseferry Road. At the first set of traffic lights, turn left into Marsham Street. Page Street, and The Westminster, are slightly further down on your right-hand side. From Pimlico: Take the Bessborough Street North exit. Follow Bessborough Street as it curves around to your left, and you'll come to Vauxhall Bridge Road. The White Swan pub will be in front of you, over the road. Cross over, and walk left about fifty feet, then turn right onto Regency Street. Go along Regency and take your second right onto Page Street. It's on the right, on the corner of the junction with Marsham.

picture of The WestminsterAt first sight The Westminster seems perfectly acceptable. It's a modern place, with good lighting and plenty of space. It doesn't veer too far into gastropub or bar territory, rather gently nods in their direction. A token London Pride pump also hides between its more garish lager pump neighbours. Service is pleasant enough too, although one suspects it could well suffer on Fridays, when all the civil servants cram in and the whole atmosphere becomes more frenetic. However, knowing this used to be the unique sci-fi themed 'Pages Bar', it somehow makes it seem just plain average - another essentially unexciting, homogenised civil servants pub on the corner of a Westminster back street.
