Coach & Horses, Soho, W1

This is a Greene King pub so the ale choice is not going to be very inspiring – during my visit they had on GKIPA, St Edmonds, and something called London Ale (I think). I’ve walked past this pub many times, but on a whim paid my first visit on Wednesday afternoon. I realised instantly that I had not been missing anything. It’s fairly cramped inside, with a couple of tall tables/stools on the left, two or three tall stools at ledges by the windows, and two or three tables and chairs at the back past the bar counter. They clearly do food at lunchtime, but I didn’t look at a menu. There are three tables outside on the Gt Marlborough St side of the pub, and if you can bag one of these on a sunny day it’s the best seating option notwithstanding the incessant traffic. Overall, this is not really one to bother with – there are better pubs in the area.
