The Admiralty Reviews 5

Popped in after work for one drink and ended up staying the whole evening because they had an amazing shanty band on called Mainstay. The atmosphere was electric, with everyone singing along and banging on the tables. I'll definitely come back and hope to see them perform again, so i can drink cider and sing along.

Worse than Wetherspoons.

The interior and layout is extremely inviting and a pleasant atmosphere. However, I ordered a traditional pie, chips and vegetables and it was by far one of the worst meals I have had and definitely not worth £20!

Only a top layer of pastry, not even a full pie. The filling was watery. I counted 13 measly chips accompanied by a small handful of steamed cabbage.

On top of the sub par meal, I was charged a service charge that should really be made more explicit before ordering.

The place is clearly a tourist trap.

No wonder we have a stereotype of terrible food if this is what they’re serving in a prime location in London.

The venue is nice. However on this occasion the food was below my expectation. It was a roast beef lunch treat for my niece. Unfortunately the meat was too thick, a bit chewy and very rare (bloody). I could not finish my meal.
The service was excellent.

The Admiralty is part of the Fuller's Pub Group operating since 1845. This is a lovely pub situated in Trafalgar Square, opposite the National Portrait Gallery. The pub is located near the Prime Minister's Office, and from there it is only a short walk to Big Ben. The Admiralty is a wonderful combination of old world charm and modern atmosphere. The Pub offers a wide selection of drinks, including Fuller's favorites such as London Pride and ESB, as well as craft lagers such as Frontier. Fuller's ESB (Extra Special Bitter) was the CAMRA British Beer Champion in 1978, 1981 and 1985. In addition, ESB won the World Champion Beer award twice, earning it the nickname "The Champion Ale"!
Admiralty might be the perfect place if you're craving a traditional Sunday roast! My Sunday roast was a truly delightful dining experience!
For my Sunday roast, I ordered Sirloin of Owton's beef with a variety of vegetables for £24.95. I received 3 pieces of juicy medium-rare beef with a unique roast flavor, plus a generous bouquet of vegetables, i.e. young carrots, young cabbage and cauliflower. Golden roasted potatoes were fluffy inside and crispy on the outside. There was also delicious and wonderfully puffed Yorkshire pudding.
My overall dining experience at The Admiralty was truly amazing and I would recommend it to anyone looking for traditional British cuisine at its best.

Went here for our Christmas party, the staff were great and really looked after us. The food was average and didnt feel warm enough however The turkey was very tasty and the wine was reasonably priced.

The pub was very busy but we never felt rushed. Overall I still enjoyed it and would return to see what their normal gastro food is like.
