Great location, affordable prices with a great atmosphere, I highly recommend to visit if you are a tourist in the city and want to experience a true traditional bar. The drinks and prompt service are really good, will definitely come back again if in London and in Marylebone.
A pub we came across on our way back from the Wallace Collection museum (to be honest it was just around the corner). Lovely decorated with some sort of stained glass windows, full of dark brown wooden furnitures, walls and beams, it is a perfect place to have a pint (or two) of their Sam Smith brewery ales and ciders. Kitchen was closed at the time we arrived so we can't tell much about it. Bar guy was nice and friendly.
šĀ Bond Street
šŗĀ Ā£4.60 Double Four Lager
ā¤ļø A Sam Smiths pub with an angelic feel.
.
The Angel In The Fields is located in the heart of Marylebone on the corner of Thayer Street and Marylebone Lane. Bond Street is the nearest tube which is a five minute walk away.
.
As pub buildings go, this pub is very understated and almost inconspicuous. Whilst I was roaming around, I had to check Google Maps to make sure this was the pub I was looking for.
.
Inside, is a completely different ball game. The decor here is traditional with walls clad in dark wood panelling. The bar is also made with dark wood and is in an unusual position as it backs on to the window wall, never seen that before. The stand out feature here are the stained glass windows, they have a unique floral design which almost makes the pub feel sacred, which of course all pubs are.
.
This is a Sam Smiths pub so all the booze consists of in-house beers, wines and spirits. I had the Double Four Lager which is a nice session lager and costs less than a fiver. Upstairs is the lounge bar which is predominantly used as a dining area, the menu is British pub grub, Fish & Chips will set you back Ā£13.95.
.
Because this is a Sam Smiths pub there are a few rules attached that you need to be aware of, no phones, laptops, ipads, speak and spells. Oh another thing, you need to mind your P&Qās no swearing in here.
.
As this was a hot and sunny day the majority of punters were sat on the benches at the front of the pub, inside was quiet. There were a few inside, I sat by two Japanese ladies who were happily quaffing away on a couple of pints. I managed to have a chat with the Guvānor, what a nice fella, he was telling me about how busy heās been with recent Rolling Stones and Pearl Jam fans using the pub pre-gig.
.
Sam Smiths pubs seem to divide opinion but personally Iām a fan. The decor here is fantastic and even though there prices have gone up, the price point is still less than most London pubs. One other note, the last three Guvānors I have met have been great, full of personality and happy to chat.

Solid pub with a (gas) fire in winter. Dark old wood covering the walls and stained glass windows - great atmosphere
Tadcaster still has the best stout and generally good beer
A long-time favourite of mine. Great internal decor, traditional wood and stained glass rass bar type. Nice seating upstairs for dining. This is a proper traditional pub in the heart of Marylebone.
This is a great place to drink. The location is lovely and you can sit outside. They have Samuel Smith beer, which is some of the nicest beer you can get in London (and elsewhere) in my opinion. I recommend the stout that they have on tap.
For me is number 1 pub in London. Because they represent my favorite Samuel Smith's Brewery. Very old and fantastic. The atmosphere there is relaxing. The beer is real interesting. Especially Old brewery bitter. Really recommend this place. Enjoy!!!
Undergoing a refit at the moment but assured only cosmetic, floors and paintwork not changing the old school charm. Very pleasant staff and a fabulous get away from stainless steel glass and fake steam punk aged'old London'.
Gorgeous old London pub with beautiful stained glass windows. Seating outside on the street and a restaurant upstairs.
Nice Sam Smiths pub with the Old Brewery Bitter cask beer among their usual range, reasonably priced for London, and with nice stained glass windows and other historical features. No food on various occasions, enjoy the beer.
WOW!! What a diamond of a gentleman Robert the barman was upstairs, very very pleasant, polite and nothing was too much trouble, very kind gentleman with great service! Pubs need people like you Robert! Had a fantastic lunch with my colleagues, thanks so much!
