Located in the bustle of Piccadilly, a short walk from Green Park tube, The Clarence in Mayfair offers a welcoming retreat in the heart of London with its fine hospitality, great ale selection and hearty food and drink menu.
Named after the Duke of Clarence, who later became King William IV, its location of Dover Street was where Sir Alexander Bell's first successful telephone call was made. Dover Street also boasts famous residents including the 18th century poet Alexander Pope, Buckingham Palace architect John Nash and French composer Frederic Chopin and has been a favourite with locals ever since.

I had a great time at The Clarence in London. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting. Highly recommended
This place is a standard Nicholson's pub. Being in one of the more expensive parts of central London, the beer is unsurprisingly expensive; there's the usual array of ales and there's fairly limited seating. I've not tried the food recently but I suspect it's standard Nicholson's offering.
Great location for a traditional old English pub. If you dine definitely go upstairs. Quite expensive for what is a good but pretty standard pub menu, good range of pies and desserts. I had the plant based burger, my wife had the puy lentil pie and both friends had the beef shank pie.
In a peaceful side street off Piccadilly, an oasis of a pub. Small cosy entrance leads into two floors of welcome and wrap around ambience. Staff at the bar are attentive and make eye contact to let you know you are n the queue for orders. Brilliant selection of ales and lagers and …… gins and tonics. Did not try the food… need to go back! The music is of good taste and not too loud. Easy to chat and stand; seating available.
We love this pub. Have come many times throughout the years. Service is good and qui. There are some good options of wine ( although a bit pricey for the quality), and some interesting options to snack on. It is just very close to the station so perfect to meet friends coming from different parts of London.
