Have utilised The Lord Aberconway for an evening beer when emerging from Liverpool Street station of an evening as it is situated on Old Broad Street just across the road from the station.
The name is a reference to the last chairman of the Metropolitan Railway, and has a bit of a Victorian character to it which becomes evident when you adjust your eyes to the fairly dark interior, although I’m not sure how much of it is genuine.
I particularly like the few small covered booths in the ground floor bar which, if you are lucky enough to be able to occupy one, is like your own personal space in which to enjoy a beer whilst the hustle and bustle of the city carries on outside your small alcove.
The beers on my visits have been GK IPA and Abbot, TT Landlord and Fullers London Pride, so unfortunately nothing special, but the Landlord and Pride have been well kept and served well. And I have been served quickly, which is always a bonus for this part of town.
So in conclusion, although I cannot comment on what it’s like at a lunchtime or what the grubs like, in my experience it’s a solid pub for a decent evening pint within close proximity of Liverpool Street Station...

Medium sized single pub with a couple of booths and upstairs gallery. has 4 real ales on tap but unfortunately on my visit the Landlord beer was in pretty poor condition. Does a vast range of sausages. just around the corner from Liverpool St station
