My husband and I came here on our honeymoon 2 years ago. (2017) we had a great time, loved the energy of the back area and for whatever reason the patrons here are friendlier than anywhere else in London. Also super good looking!!
Then, after probably too many beers, I forgot where we had gone and we've spent the last two years trying to find this place! We stumbled upon it only because it has the highest reviews of all the pubs in the area. We walked in and immediately announced "its The Ghost Pub!!" It is forever in our hearts as The Ghost Pub.
I love that they make their own beer and they do a stiff pour. Steak and ale pie comes with a tiny pitcher of gravy, seriously fresh crisp peas and a meaty serving of pie with pearl onions. -

We found this per Yelp on our first night in London. We used the Get Directions and walked 5 minutes to this 1896 English pub. You seat yourself, order at the bar, and food is delivered to your table. The entire pub is a mobile free zone so be prepared to talk during your visit. We ordered hamburgers, liver and onion, and steak and ale pie. We ordered Sam Smith IPA, Smith wheat beer, and wine. The food came out quickly and was delicious. The wait staff was very friendly and helpful when ordering. It was not busy so we enjoyed the quiet atmosphere with dinner.

Went in after touring Buckingham Palace. It's a tucked away pub with a local feel. They make their own beer and spirits that are very nice. I recommend the beef pie and ale if you are looking for a traditional English meal.

We love this pub. One of our central London favorites. The Old Brewery Bitter was a fantastic dry beer; almost creamy and very easy to drink. We had a steak and ale pie as well and I'd have given an extra star for that if I could. Beautiful classic pub vibe and a very friendly staff. Add that to great food and spectacular beer and you're set.

We wanted a real English pub experience and got it at the Windsor Castle. Away from the crowds is this picturesque pub which delivered on the experience. You do order at the bar which was something we don't do back at home. The brown ale was incredibly good. We had the fish and chips which my wife said was amazing. The hamburger was simple and delicious. Talking to the owner added to the experience. The food is brought up from down below (somewhere) by a lift! Would go back there next time in London for sure!
