A good place to go to get the Porterhouse beers, but even though this is a spacious pub, it gets uncomfortably busy at night, so I advise people to go there earlier on.

Good Irish pub with many of the Porterhouse brew on tap. Beer menu is quite large, but contains mostly beers that are widely available, so nothing special.

The only Irish pub I’ll use in London. The feel of the place varies greatly from day to day and also at what time you get there, normally a good mix of Londoners and tourists enjoying themselves. Modern in design, but not plastic or cheap in any way. All the beers I tried were fine, not great, but better than most for Covent Garden. Service can be troublesome when it is really full, which is often. Otherwise no problems. The beer selection is good, their own brews of course, but others also, plenty of variety in styles and nationalities. Covent Garden is not a cheap place to drink; this is a little bit more though. I don’t go out of my way to come here, but if in the area, I’ll pop in and have a couple, you should too!

An Irish bar on an industrial scale. Best at quiet times when the crowd isn’t spilling out on to the pavement. OK if you are looking for a Porterhouse tick, and reasonably priced for the area.

Smart and tourist friendly decorations, not exactly my style. Standard Porterhouse selections, the same you can get bottled in stores. I wasn’t impressed

I do like this place, been here on slow days during the week, and on busy saturday nights. Decent selection, great interior although the levels can get confusing after a few.

Lots of Porterhouse avaliable from tap. Large and modern place. The beers are decent. Zero new ticks for me though, but a fine place if you need the Porterhouse beers.

Maybe too much crowded for a craft beer lover, but a young and fun atmosphere. This is also obvious given the location. Pub is wooden and typical English style, pretty nice. Lots of space, still full of people. Service friendly but not extremely knowledgeable. Good selection of proprietary beers on tap and some interesting guest taps. Huge bottle list, mostly from UK and Belgium. Some US crafts too. NOt tried food. In my opinion, this place is worth a stop mostly to try the Porterhouse beers on tap. You can have better places for Belgian beers.
