My companion and I were really disappointed with this place. The beer was appalling. Yes, it's like stepping back a hundred years, unfortunately I think that was the age of the beer too. The furnishing was old, dirty and ricketty - probably supplied by Fagin. The surroundings drab and the staff & customers miserable. If I could give the place a minus score I would. This was without a doubt the worst pub we visited on our long weekend in the capital. The only person I would recommend this place to would be a person I didn't like!

Superb beers! Enjoyed a cracking pint of Mild and a half of Grapefruit beer. Great Dickensian surroundings....quirky and well recommended.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Jerusalem Tavern
If you can get here outside the busy periods, you will find one of the great hidden gems of London. Full of character, with a number of cosy wooden alcoves, and a tiny raised area with three seats that resembles a pulpit. First class St Peters ales on draught. Absolutely top of the range.

A very old fashioned pub selling a range of St.Peter's beers dispensed by air pressure which is very strange for this part of the country.Like stepping back hundreds of years.10 mins from Farringdon station.Closed Sat & Sun.

ps. I'm not a rep, but noticed that St Peter's Brewery sells mixed & presentation cases; might tick some boxes for those of us otherwise awkward to buy pressies for! www.stpetersbrewery.co.uk

Woody, auldy worldy interior, tiny bar. St Peter's brewery beers. Nice. Went at 2pm yesterday and took a few minutes to be served, heard a couple of groups asking when their food would appear, but friendly enough and well worth a visit although I would avoid peak times as it must surely be uncomfortable when busy. Briefly featured in the beer episode of 'How London was built'.
