first day in Dublin just off the plane and hungry . We ask where should we eat and drink and staff at hotel recommended! Was just the experience we wanted and needed. Food and atmosphere just what we all want in Ireland

This was my first meal in London, located as always by this app and yet again yelp comes thru. Was running off 2 hours airplane sleep and this sandwich absolutely delivered, was tasty, the bartender was super nice, and the ambiance was fun. Also met a few other Americans in there. Good stuff.

We loved the Dean Swift Pub and it offers a charming and cozy old school pub atmosphere. I highly recommend their Sunday Roast but absolutely make a reservation!

The pub has a traditional British feel, both inside and out, with limited seating on both floors. While their menus offer a wide variety of options, we were there solely for the Sunday  Menu and Sunday Roast, and it did not disappoint.

We started with a couple of pints and the Ibérico Ham Croquettes, served with aioli (£8 | $10.50 USD). I can best described them as three ground ham and cheese tater tots. They were delicious and made for a great start.

For the main course, we both opted for the Aged Striploin Beef Roast. I loved that you could choose how it's cooked (medium-well for me & medium-rare for Chris). This is not common from what I understand. Each roast comes with roast potatoes, seasonal vegetables, homemade Yorkshire pudding, and red wine jus. Everything was simply delightful (£19.5 | $25.59 USD).

To finish, we shared the churros (4 count), served with cinnamon and chocolate sauce. A perfect sweet ending to the meal (£6.5 | $8.53 USD). We also added a side of Cauliflower Cheese (£5 | $6.56 USD), which was rich, creamy, and served molten hot but was the perfect complement to the roast.

The Dean Swift Pub was voted one of London's Top 25 Sunday Roasts by The Evening Standard, and it certainly lives up to the hype. I included both Sterling Pound and USD here to $ is a google estimate for an idea of the cost in the states.

I would absolutely recommend The Dean Swift Pub, and you for to try a Sunday Roast.

We found this place on Yelp after touring the Tower of London and Tower Bridge. It was a Sunday and the tradition is to eat "Sunday Roast" and we decided to share one huge portion because we weren't too hungry. We ordered the beef roast plate and a beet salad and a couple of pints. It was perfect! So delicious!! And service was wonderful, very friendly!

Great pub, very friendly staff, food was pretty good. They were definitely on the busy side but most were coming in for liquid libations. I ordered a fish and chips here and it was great. My wife had a chicken sandwich and we also ordered two sliders. I definitely recommend if you are in the area. They are a little on the pricey side, but, it's London.

Great little spot for beer and food!  The staff are friendly and attentive, and they are happy to offer a good recommendation. 

We also tried the meat and cheese board, which was delicious. Good portions and delicious array of cheese and meats with a loaf of bread. Try this place out!

Great food (I tried the Fish and Chips) and the beer is very good.  I sat downstairs and there is a really great pub atmosphere (I'm a tourist).  Service is great and food comes out really fast.
