The Prince of Wales, 150-151 Drury Lane, WC2B 5TB

A generic zone 1 pub sitting on the corner of Drury Lane and Great Queen Street. It's, well, alright. Standard beer selection, pub grub and décor. It doesn’t have to try that hard to pull in the punters. On weeknights it attracts the post-work crowd and at weekends it's the theatre-goers that make up the numbers. It's inoffensive and you could do at lot worse in Covent Garden.
