Smithfield Market Arms 55 Charterhouse Street, London EC1M 6PR

"The beer house is 's particularly nice venue for private events. Staff were OK but again still recommend if you're in the area and looking for casual drinks with friends."

"Friendly staff, good selection of sales, and the special offer pricing on food made it quite reasonably priced. Burger was tasty."

"I give 3 stars for the location and clean restaurant. There aren't many choice of food here and it's mostly frozen food,because I feel like they just heated up the food."

"Nice place, good selection of beer, and they also serve Kombucha (not on tap). Ordered a chicken burger (burgers half price on Mondays). Took about 1 minute for food to arrive, however the chicken definitely looked dead, not sure if it was ever alive."

"Reasonably good venue for late night drinks but not my favourite, and I do personally think that there are other better venues. Cocktails were about average, but not as good as some competitors. The entrance level is a small bar/restaurant with seating. The bar section itself is very small and manned by only 1-2 staff members, as such the service is very slow; you could be looking to wait upwards of half an hour for a drink. Granted they do try and put a lot of effort into their cocktails but some of the flair is not essential when you have a large crowd waiting. On one visit we had table service, even then we had to remind them we were there. Downstairs is a lot bigger and is open later, bar service is much quicker. This is more tailored towards the late night party crowd, there's more space to have a dance and some seating around the edges. Playlist varies. When we went it was a good mix between some house and older dance classics. Decor is pretty cool. They have their own reasonably unique vintage/old-era theme."
