One of my favourite restaurants in London. Their Sunday lunch is the best in the city, no wonder they got a Bib Gourmand, the quality of the food is outstanding! Make sure you leave space for dessert.

This is an amazing place, the from individual daily menu to the perfect service. Extremely good food and great wine selection. Highly recommended.

Great Sunday roasts - 2 or 3 courses - highlights were the tomato salad starter and burnt butter tart for dessert. Impressive Yorkshire pudding too

We almost ordered the whole menu between 3 and it was all fantastic. The brown butter & honey tart might have changed my life

Great for post-Columbia Road publunch. Be sure to book in advance - the place is packed for a reason... Their food and wine selection is fantastic.

This is not your usual pub - award winning English pub servicing a good selection of beer and british food

A new favourite - perfect for winter evenings. Commendable selection of draught beers. Small bites from the bar good too.

The food was amazing...a little on the expensive side...and it's a little bit crowded...but overall a lovely afternoon.

Delicious! Everything is homemade, down to the crackers, bread and apple jelly.

If you like your Sunday lunches big and bold and your gastropubs more bar than restaurant, this cracking little corner pub near Columbia Road flower market will do you proud. Read more

Food was great, and the service and ambiance were cozy and relaxed.

A good but pricey Sunday lunch - avoid the table by the door, it gets a little cold when the door opens

The Marksman burger & chips are amazing! Staff are brilliant so get down there!

Seated outside the toilets. Portions small but pretty tasty. Service friendly. Nothing outside the ordinary

Exceptionally good Sunday Roast and great Pale Ales from tap
Andrew WhiteJune 26, 2016
Great food and a steady stream of popups
David GurneyAugust 26, 2012
The belly pork Sunday roast is all fat. Wine choice is good though
Arthur MitchellApril 13, 2022
Limited selection of flavorful food. The beer selection is limited and not the same quality as the food.

Avoid on a Sunday. They fail to indicate which tables are reserved and proceed to unapologetically move you around like cattle, whilst messing up your orders. Rude and unwelcoming.

Get the pheasant pie.
James FranklinMay 26, 2013
Beers here have alcohol in them

Great staff, great food, great interior, great pub.
Cole KennedyApril 27, 2018
I was a bit unimpressed, especially considering how many publications recommended this spot, but then again I only sat at the bar where they don’t serve food (at least not to degenerate day drinkers).
