Put your feet up at Dover Castle
Related Articles
12 February 2008
This is a fine old Sam Smith's pub tucked away in a mews, just a short distance away from the hustle and bustle of Marylebone Road and Portland Place.
And, as it's a Sam Smith's pub, the well-kept beer is what you'd expect - excellent if you like Sam's, not so good if you don't. There's decent enough pub grub (filling a hole, rather than tickling the taste buds and there are no 21st century distractions such as piped music, TV or gaming machines - another Sam Smith's thing.
The pub rarely gets crowded, although it picks up after work for a couple of hours. It is on the tourist map and, every so often, you'll find a few in here, but it's in such an obscure location, that only a few manage to find it.
If you're a fan of Sam's produce, the Dover Castle is just the place to put your feet up and read a good book or ponder eternity. And it's open for Sunday lunch too.
