On The Bab - Menu

The food here is great as are the drinks, simply delicious! The staff are lovely and the venue is beautiful.

We went as a group for afternoon drinks. Great pub and good selection of beers and frinidly staff. Comfrortably sofas and fire at the back.

Good range of interesting beers with a number of local ones. Nice surroundings and very personable attentive landlord. Excellent place to watch the world go by.

In my previous review for this restaurant I gave it only four stars when I meant to give it five. I blame on screen keyboards and my light touch. This is the tops for fish and chips.

Didn’t think it would be possible to f__k up nachos so here’s a photo to prove it! At £7.00 it was the cheapest thing to eat (just a well I wasn’t hungry) with a with a £7.00 glass of rubbish rioja!

He was happy for me to enter as I was a white male but not the people I was with. After speaking with the bar manager who was very helpful, he then agreed to allow us entry, but the bouncer still refused our custom regardless that we had colleagues in the bar and that the manger was happy for us to enter. Whilst this was happening 20 potential customers changed their minds about entering the bar because of the the alte...

Although it looks like an old traditional pub, apparently it is a relatively modern conversion of a former shop. If so, the transformation has been well done and The Reliance feels like it has been here for ever, not least because of the rickety wooden staircase that runs up the side of the building from the side door and toilets at the bottom to the top floor which, unusually, houses one of London’s most interesting art galleries. When the current coronavirus crisis is over and we all re-examine lessons learnt about that might change the way that we do things in the future, art galleries and pubs will both be looking at the cost of physical premises with their high rental costs and business...
