Harden's says
Bought and glossily refurbished in 2022 Cubitt House, which now owns a number of central London pubs, including the Alfred Tennyson in Knightsbridge and the Princess Royal in Notting Hill. There's a bar downstairs and a more formal restaurant on the first floor.
Harden's survey result
Summary
With its parquet floors and white Edwardian-style tiling behind the bar, this Mayfair boozer has undergone a fine restoration by the Cubitt House group. For a civilised pub meal in a pricey bit of town it’s worth remembering – “the ground floor bar is fine for beer and pub snacks, but it is the more cosy upstairs dining room where the menu showcases seasonal British dishes” with a ‘decadent French’ twist from chef Chris Fordham-Smith.
Summary
“All of the Cubitt’s pubs are class acts”, and this recent (2022) addition to their glossy tribe is a gentrified Mayfair boozer with fine period features. In culinary terms, it fits the “pricey but good quality” DNA of the group – in fact, it’s at the upper level of achievement in that respect. There’s a bar downstairs and a more formal restaurant on the first floor.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
