Just a couple of minutes from Victoria Train station, this is another refurbished former T & J Bernard pub in an area with no fewer than seven of them. Cornering the traffic-heavy Lower Grosvenor Place, it appears slightly less busy than other pubs in the area. Sure, the after work crowd fill it up at the expected times, but a recent pub crawl around Victoria found it to be the only place with seats available at 8.30pm. Inside, it's quite pleasant: the heavy red curtains, subtle lighting and dark wood panelling make this a good winter pub. The number of hotels nearby mean it can become extremely popular with tourists; a preponderance of American visitors tucking into generic pub grub on our visit seemed to enjoy it here. Staff are notably courteous and chatty, while the choice of beer (5 ales on the pumps) was pretty good. Overall, a good pub either for a swift one if the trains have gone pear-shaped, or a longer afterwork session.
