The Wellington in City of London

Nice, pleasant pub at the top end of Waterloo Bridge, on the junction of The Strand and Wellington Street. Good lunch, lovely staff and a good pint of Nicholson IPA.

Went in before going to the theatre. The meals were delicious, great value for money, three courses for £21. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was lovely. I would definitely recommend eating here before a trip to the theatre. I will definitely return on my next visit to London.

We had a wonderful experience here today and our little one was completely enamoured with the lovely landlady. Highly recommend for families. Thank you to all the lovely staff for making our boy feel like part of your family!

Always been happy with this chain before, but today in this place we were most disappointed with food - my wife had ordered a shepherd's pie, it was stone cold in the middle, so had to go back. It took so long for a replacement to come that I had finished my pie by the time it arrived. The vegetables were not good either, soggy carrots and rubbery cabbage mixture. Not enjoyable. The waiter who served us may have been new as he didn't even know what ale was available when I asked, as I couldn't see from our table. We were offered a discount for our hassle, but we weren't left feeling very happy, sorry guys.

Fitted us in on News Year’s Day without a booking. Made a real effort to get our starving youngest his starter super quickly to avoid a melt down. Replaced a dropped knife instantly without us asking. Friendly, smiling and efficient service; food is simple fare done really well - home cooked food which came quickly. Nice menu - seems to specialise in pies and firm favourites. Thank you so much a lovely dinner to finish our stay in the capital.

Great place for making new friends. Plenty of atmosphere. My GO TO place in Theatre land. Lots of lovely memories.

The Wellington is a classic English pub with delicious food and generous pours served up with solicitous attention and British aplomb. Decorated in rich upholstery and dark woods, it has the atmosphere to complete a true pub experience. We started with halloumi fries and a delightful tomato tarte, and then had this savory steak & ale meat pie and wonderful bangers & mash served up in a yorkshire pudding surrounding.

Booked a table in advance as going to see a show but sadly got held up in traffic. Phoned ahead and thankfully they kept our table for us. Service was quick and food was really lovely with all fresh veg.Large portions so couldn't manage a dessert but they looked lovely as well. Will definitely return in the near future but it pays to book as it was very busy.

I like to review places that I can recommend to others and what I liked most about this place was the large outside area. I am a sicker for sitting outside and soaking up the local atmosphere. I'd give it a five but its reserved for excellence and the service was a bit slow but only because they were busy on a Saturday. I'm sure we can bump the rating up to a five next time I pop in for a pint.

Brilliant atmosphere food and service close to Theatre area real oldie world pub
