There's a rustic, shabby-chic feel to this long-standing and ever-busy pub located conveniently close to The Young Vic Theatre. It's an appropriate setting for the hearty cooking informed by quality British produce, be it a generous portion of roasted beetroot with feta or suitably flavoursome ox tongue with lentils. Combine this with a lively atmosphere and relaxed yet well-drilled service, and you have all you need in a pub. If you're dining as a pair, look out for the cassoulet to share.
