March 29, 2025 at 2:48 pmHad an awesome time at Ye Olde Watling! The burger and Thai chicken wings were so good super tasty and cooked just right. The place has a nice vibe, and the service was great. Big shoutout to Shalina, she was really friendly and made sure we were all good. Definitely recommend this spot!

June 1, 2025 at 1:15 pmVisited here while gallivanting round the city, and saw they had an award-winning steak and pale ale pie, which I had to try! I can confirm it was delicious.
Pint prices pretty fair for the City of London too, at under £7. Loved the history of the place as well. Overall, wonderful visit, and would come by again when back in town 🙂

The open window and people watching on the street drinking at the pub made for an iconic British experience. Cheers!

August 2, 2025 at 4:33 pmGreat pub with a fantastic selection of lagers and ales! Steve, the bartender, suggested that I taste a few before buying, which really helped me pick the perfect drink. He’s friendly and welcoming, and the pub has a warm, relaxed atmosphere that makes it the perfect place to enjoy a drink. Highly recommend!

August 24, 2025 at 7:08 amNice Nicholson’s pub with a little dose of history We prebooked a table, but not sure it was necessary. Good table service. Highly recommend the vegan nourish bowl salad – very tasty whilst also being healthy.
Toilets in the lower ground mostly clean.
