Last visit was a fortnight ago, my wife and I love the place.

The surroundings are real and we have always had great food during our numerous visits.

Only scoring 1 star as I can't score 0, been to the Prince Alfred twice now. The first time I found the staff pretty rude but put up with it in that typical british way.

The second time my girlfriend had ordered me the wrong pint so whilst still at the bar with a full pint I asked if they could change it, the responce was short and sharp, "Its already been paid for"

I asked to talk to the manager about the mistake to which a stonefaced women walked over and told me they were not going to change the drink then informed the staff not to serve us no more????

Very rude staff, over priced drinks and for those who like me have wear a hat to hide their reseeding hairline don't bother this pub seems to have a no hats dress code.

I frequented this pub often when I lived in Maida Vale on Sutherland Avenue, and it looks as beautiful now as it was then.. long ago.. in the late 70s. Hope to return soon!

Really like this pub, great character, see the 'View London Review' for details, its all tru. The staff can occasionally be a bit cheeky but good if your in a big group and up for some friendly banter. Food service can be a little slow but this just gives you time to admire the interior, definately recommend taking friends there who are visiting the area and then take a pleasant walk through Little Venice afterwards...

We have been going to the Prince Alfred for years and love the place. The new management have certainly left their mark and this place is great. The food is reasonably priced and there is excellent service. It's so rare to visit a pub with friendly staff who genuinely seem to enjoy what they do - keep it up. Perhaps you could train some of the other pubs in the area who seem unable to do this! We can't wait for the new brunch they are about to start.

I went there a lot of years ago. I've went to London to study, but often at night I went to the Prince Albert. Wonderful memories!

Likewise! My plate was dirty, we complained and had to force them to take off the service from the bill. And the manager hid from us. The Prince Alfred has lost the plot. Never again after five years as a regular patron...

The Prince Alfred has slow service and disappointing food. We had a minute serving of thin very hard to cut over-cooked tastless pork, with semi-raw parsnip and leathery Yorkshire pudding, and three cheap chicken pieces claiming to be coq au vin, and was mostly bone. The kitchen staff at Prince Alfred had make the food go further instructions. Never, never again.
