The Hat and Tun

Revamped gastropub from the boys behind The Botanist

Brothers Tom and Ed Martin have made a career turning old boozers into gastropubs - some with notable success (The Botanist, Well Tavern and The Gun). But nobody seems to much like the Hat and Tun. Perhaps it's that in less penny pinching times we might have let an overpriced menu or wine list slide, but these days London diners (and critics) are more likely to stand up and decry such a blatant attempt to separate them from their hard-earned wages.

"A good place to drink, then, if an old-fashioned place to eat. But if it came to more modern food, what would be the point in going head to head with the Eagle on Farringdon Road?" READ REVIEW

"For a quick lunch… this is a handy enough place if you’re already in the locality. Even if you’re proposing to write a review of it, however, it’s difficult to argue that it’s worth crossing town for." READ REVIEW

"Meals like this just confirm my suspicion that food at places in this group is prepared by people who don’t know what they are cooking for people who don’t care what they are eating. A great shame and another chance missed." READ REVIEW
