68 /100 Old Shades (Bar) 37 WHITEHALL Classic wood panelled pub next to Trafalgar. Okay selection of lighter beers after a hot day of tourism. Nothing to go out of the way for but comfy and beautiful inside making for a nice stop |
68 /100 33 WHITEHALL NIce large cosy pub. 7 casks and 14 taps. Truman, Redemption, Camden Ink, Portobello Pils. Friendly service. |
74 /100 Old Shades (Bar) 37 WHITEHALL Nice cosy pub. 6 casks, 14 kegs. Lancaster bomber, Sambrooks, Twickenham, Trum,an Roller, Shandon Stout. Sagres if you need portugeese tick. Nice service. |
52 /100 33 WHITEHALL Large pub, very busy downstairs area. Only two people serving a queue of around 20 people upstairs. Taylor Walker were advertising a real ale festival, and yet there were only 3 cask ales on. OK place, similar to a Spoons. Staff were nice once you could get to speak to them. |
54 /100 Old Shades (Bar) 37 WHITEHALL Nice decor, central location, just a few Adnams beers on Cask. I can’t rate it higher than this because the beer range is very limited. |
56 /100 33 WHITEHALL Tourist heavy pub near to the top of Whitehall, but it does have an appealing look if you’re after a traditional period style English pub. It’s has a number of ale pumps and is a popular place for food and acts as an alternative on both counts to the Wetherspoon pub it faces across the road, although a little more expensive. |
60 /100 Clarence (Restaurant) 53 WHITEHALL The Clarence on Whitehall – not to be confused with the Nicholson’s pub of the same name just off Piccadilly – has eight hand pumps with three or four guest ales and a further 16 or so keg taps. It’s more of a restaurant than a pub, with just a few chunky high top tables reserved for drinking only at lunchtime, but retains the feel of a pub. It’s been stripped out and has some olde worlde touches such as the rough plaster ceiling, rough beams colour-washed in blue and leaded windows at the back. There’s also a room upstairs and a small number of tables on the pavement outside. The clientele are a mix of tourists and civil servants from the many government department buildings around Whitehall.

64 /100 Old Shades (Bar) 37 WHITEHALL You can not miss this pub walking towards Trafalgar Square. The exterior is interesting and the interior is wider than most London pub. Inside is quite dark but with good number of seats. Usual dishes menù but very abundant. Good choice of beers although not very numerous (7/8 taps). Often frequented by tourists considering the zone. Staff not particularly brilliant. |
96 /100 Old Shades (Bar) 37 WHITEHALL Have been there a lot of times and enjoyed our visit and the drinks each single time. The pub has got a very wide range of ales and beers on tap, also some quite "exotic" beers for the UK like Steen Brugge, Boon Kriek. You also get some good bottles of Belgian beer. The ales are mainly from Young brewery but they also have got a large seasonal ale range. The food selection is good and the Fish and Chips just marvellous. I would love to be there each day because it is so comfy, heart and belly warming. |
