The Harp, Covent Garden
London
Avis
An absolute gem in the heart of Covent Garden! The Harp is proper traditional London pub culture at its finest. An exceptional, rotating selection of real cask ales and ciders. The staff really know their stuff and are always happy to give recommendations.
Simply a superb award winning Pub. A cornerstone of the area. Great beer which it is all about. Snug and seating upstairs.
Binnie Walsh's old pub. That it exists today with it's current popularity is entirely down to her and the staff who helped her build it. Sold on to Fullers over 10 years ago, they've been great custodians. The beer is still terrific, condition, choice and range. Service on a very busy lunchtime was efficient but brusque. Appreciate the former and can understand the latter given the volume of punters. American Pale Ale was £6.65, 216 THB. It was terrific, but having seen the best of this place wouldn't rush to return.
First day of Spring and this place was heaving outside however it was straightforward and easy to get a drink in little time as the staff are attentive. An amazing array of cask beers with a few kegs. Love the beer mat decor.
It was an absolute pleasure to drink in the only pub in London that has ever won the CAMRA National Pub of the Year award. There’s a top class range of cask ales expertly pulled - if you get the chance, do visit as you won’t be disappointed.
