On the face of it this is a typical Central London Nicholson's boozer, but a point of note was that I found the staff to be extremely friendly to the transient commuter crowd and although busy there was a nice atmosphere and the Pride was good. Greene King IPA was also available alongside a couple of obscure guest ales and a selection of standard and premium lagers.
There was some decent background music playing at an inoffensive volume and there is a TV, but no Sky Sports.
Next time I find myself in the Leicester Square area I will pop in here again for another nice pint of Guinness.
