Lovely little pub, the staff are welcoming and the beer is good, so is the food! there is a large outdoor space at the back of the pub and the cinema evenings are a great idea, Price wise it's very reasonable too.

Now back to being the Northumberland - and what a difference a name makes!!!
Popped in a few times now, Flowers on HP & very well kept (they also have Bass on Hand pump) good range of lagers, wines & spirits
This is more of a traditional style pub serving good food which for what you get is very reasonably priced, the beer, I was on the flowers IPA, is well kept & at �3 pint perfectly acceptable.
The staff & owner are very welcoming & the place now has a very nice feel to it, they have three big screens but even when there is a football match on it's not to intrusive if your not watching, the open fires & sofa's give the place a cosy feel even though it has very high ceilings.
All in all a VERY nice pub ! well worth the visit.

I visited recently & found all the staff to be very friendly & welcoming, lunch was exelent as was the service, Good selection on hand pump although not all in use. there was a good atmosphere with the staff & locals all enjoying themselfs, I would recomend this pub to anyone in the area.

Nice place! the beer is generaly of good quality, although a bit pricey!
the food on offer is very good I have eaten both at lunchtime & in the evening & on all occasions the service was exelent.
It can get very busy if the weather is fine!

I went to the Rising Sun last night & I must say I was pleasantly surprised!!
Looks a bit shabby from the street but more than makes up for it with good beer & a warm welcome! well worth a visit!
Lets hope when Youngs "do" the place up, this time they will actually think a bit & not make it a carbon copy of all the other pubs!!

This is by far and away one of the best pubs in London!
The beer is always good & the welcome is always friendly, WARNING!! be carefull when you visit!
I often pop in for a "quick" beer & somehow find myself leaving at closing time!

The Hung, Drawn and Quartered, Tower Hill
Nice pub, welcoming staff & good ales (I haven't eaten there ...yet) beer is a bit pricy but that is to be expected given the location. when I was there last it was reasonably busy but the staff coped well, considering the number of people who popped in for a quick pint and the crowd in the dining area the whole place was still kept clean & tidy. all in all a good little find.
