Best Pubs in St Paul's

I recently visited The Phoenix Pub and decided to try both their chicken pie and burger. It’s not easy to find pubs that excel at both comfort food and classics, but this one delivered. The chicken pie was the star for me. The pastry was flaky and golden, holding up well without going soggy. Inside, the filling was rich, creamy, and packed with tender chicken and vegetables. It tasted homemade, with just the right balance of seasoning. The portion size was generous, and the pie was served hot and fresh, which made a big difference. The burger was equally impressive. The patty was juicy and well-seasoned, cooked perfectly to retain its flavor. The bun held everything together without falling apart, and the toppings were fresh and crisp. I appreciated that they kept things simple – no over-the-top ingredients, just a solid, well-executed burger. The wait staff were friendly and attentive, making sure we were happy with our meals. They even checked on the food’s temperature and quality, which showed they’re serious about customer satisfaction. Overall, The Phoenix offers hearty, well-prepared food in a welcoming atmosphere. Both the chicken pie and burger were excellent, and it’s clear they take pride in serving fresh, comforting dishes. I’ll definitely be back to try more from their menu.

Lovely laid back tavern with massive gin selection, great ambience and vibes.

What a gem of a find! Tucked away in Hatton Garden, we went for a pre-event birthday lunch and was more than pleasantly surprised. The food was good but it was the staff that made it standout. They were really friendly and very accommodating and it made the whole experience really special and memorable. Would definitely recommend and will be going back.

No frills pub fare served with charm and you even offered a discount we hadn't been aware was available. We had a great meal pre-theatre. Thanks very much.
