A great local! Good beer, nice staff, ping pong and darts - you can even bring your own food in. My favourite place!

Popped in for a pre-gig pint and had the place to ourselves for a few minutes. Stayed for an hour. Absolutely lovely pub! Go there!

Its more about the pub vibe than the food, although in summer they have a side window through which you can order pizza at decent prices.

As a place to go with friends for a drink, it is absolutely fantastic. The sign says "not your ordinary pub" and I would have to agree. I has a huge range of bottled beers from around the world and staff are more than happy to help guide you to something to your tastes.

The floors are dark wood and it has a very relaxed feel which is very welcome - I have never been here and thought it was too busy. They also have a decent upstairs which is almost always empty and a nice quite spot to go i you want a more solitary feel.

There are boardgames stacked to one side and a table tennis table at the back. It also gives off a nice community feel with fliers advertising the darts team (more about the drinking, not the darting) on the wall.

On the whole, its a great pub to drop into with some friends for a casual drink or 5.

Very different to other pubs in the area, ever changing ales and beers and great staff too. I love that you can bring your own pizza too.

I came with a group of friends to the Old China Hand for the first time this weekend for my birthday. The best Pub in London with really great drinks! We had a fantastic time playing darts and the owner and bar staff could not have been nicer, they were so accommodating and friendly which created a lovely atmosphere through the whole pub - I am planning my next trip back already!

Reopened this evening (4th Feb ‘23), we had a magic evening drinking great beer, wine and cider and playing darts in the back room. The staff are new all and coming to terms with serving in a pub, but are friendly and attentive while creating a lovely atmosphere. A star of a pub.

My favourite pub in London, unapologetically different to the usual brewery-owned "gastro" pubs. An incredible range of beers and ciders from all four corners of the United Kingdom, served by welcoming and chatty staff who are passionate about their pub and the drinks they serve. A real treasure

We've been coming here for years and always liked it. They have done it up since lock down and it's got a lovely fresh feel. Very friendly staff and great drinks.
