Daniel's Reviews

The Punch has won numerous awards for it food, that are proudly displayed outside and within the pub. Unfortunately they are let down by the lack of staff / service and the smell of beer all over the floor. I appreciate it is a boozer but thought it was supposed to be a little better than others on Fleet St. The San Miguel is the best beer on tap but if you are planning on going for a drink Monday night (first Monday of the month) is quiz night. It will be busy and the staff will be rushed off their feet.

This place has recently opened so definitely some teething problems! The main one being hardly any ventilation. To say, “I was sweating like a weightwatcher in a cake shop” would be slightly harsh but it was definitely too hot. Also having the table next to me less than 30cm away (the size of an A4 sheet of paper lengthways) was not the best. The place is in the middle of nowhere so you definitely have to venture out, driving or taxi advisable. The fish was great – what they make a living from really. A nice touch with the free water, still or sparkling but the tables being too close was not the best. I would go again for a special occasion but would definitely ring first and see how many people are booked. If more than 25 I would not recommend.
For info I went for dinner on 27th July .
