Fodor's Review:

Great things at reasonable prices come from the open kitchen at this permanently packed, no-reservations, exceptional gastropub on the Cut: Crab on toast, and cod with white beans are two standouts. It's informal, cramped, and highly original, and there are often dishes for groups (leg of lamb is a good 'un.) Expect to share a table, too.

A real Gastropub

Posted by bigboroboy from London on 12/23/08
I think most people visit this place because they are going to one of the theaters nearby. However, I'd be happy to eat here everyday for the rest of my life and even though it is a fair distance from either my workplace or home I get there as often as I can. Everything from the kitchen is seasonal and expertly cooked. The menus are interesting without being pretentious and this is everything a gastropub should be. The only compettition as far as I'm concerned is it's sister place 32 Great Queen Street.

Good Food & Good fun

Packed and noisy but after waiting 20mn with a very good glass Albarino Rias Baixas, we had a very pleasant diner with fresh products and good choice in a wide and open wine list.
