Easily the best fish and chips I’ve had! The fish is so smooth and buttery and delicious. I did add a decent amount of salt to the fish and chips but that could be personal preference. This tavern is beautiful inside! I love the character. I didn’t get to see the upper floor but my friend has been before and said it’s a cozy seating area. My only issues were they don’t serve Coca Cola, only Diet Coke or Coke Zero… and the seating is a bit tight so you’ll be rubbing elbows with others. Typical British customer service. Food: 10/10. Ambiance/architecture: 9/10. Service: 8/10. You want delicious fish and chips? Come here.
The pub is buzzing!! Very crowded and servers are over whelmed but the wait is worth! Food is amazing! The ambience is very 1875 and preserved well!! They even have a food elevator to the top! The servers could use some help but they are very nice! Overall a very good British experience to our Europe trip. Ps. They do not do free refills on soft drinks or sodas :)
St. Stephen’s Tavern is a wonderful Iconic traditional English Pub to grab a beer and and some good ole Fish ‘n Chips or English Steak Pie after visiting Westminster Abbey, Big Ben and House of Parliament. Prices are decent and the staff is friendly. It was established in 1875 and is one of six pubs around Parliament. Known Prime ministers to frequent the pub include Winston Churchill, Stanley Baldwin and Harold Macmillan. Gorgeous views of Big Ben and the House of Parliament. It’s at the Westminster Tube stop. The pub still has the original division bell which rings, warning MPs that there are only a few minutes to vote. I highly recommend stopping in for a beer!

Full stars for the service, Full stars for the food delivery, within 10mins (ordered around 8.15pm) Full stars for the environment and ambience. 1 star for the fish and chips. Taste thawed and not fresh, chips under cooked, tartar not bad, pea paste is ok. 3 stars for Beef pie as it is normal, oven baked pie, tastes a bit of wine (not very sure if any). Overall not bad. But it did not have the wow effect. Over total damage $37 for 2. I heard they serve good beer. Maybe I will try it next time if we visit London again, The toilet is located in the basement, kinda slippery and dirty. But maybe at the end of the day hence they didn't have time to clean it up. Outside having a drinking and smoking area, you can enjoy the Big Ben scenery while chilling. Prime location with beer and good scenery.
