I didn’t order food but I’ll rate it 5 for the beer selection, loads of Wit/blanche/Wheat beers on the menu which are my favourite style of beer. Everything is fairly priced for London. If you love Belgium beers and/or wheat beer then this is a good choice. One of my favourite pubs in London

One of the last few places in the city that specialises in Belgian beer! Really friendly service, Two excellently poured bottles of Kwak and sat outside to watch the world go by. Very enjoyable indeed after a day out with the camera.

Great Belgian beer bar! They had a large selection of draft and bottled beers. Highly recommended if you're a Belgian beer afficionado.

Super erratic behaviour from the guy behind the bar. Didn't break eye contact and appeared to be shaking when taking our order. Legitimately raised his voice when I ordered a sprite for my wife, 'this is a Belgian bar, WHY ARE YOU HERE?' A Tuesday, so she was being responsible. I dared to ask for a lager. Exasperated, he again shouted 'THIS IS A BELGIAN BAR.' Don't mind a bit of banter about beer choice but this was something more aggressive. Lager was Belgian, mind you... Came here years ago, lovely place. Genuinely unpleasant experience this time.
