The Zetland Arms London Reviews


Good pub lunch - I loved the traditional pub lunch food they served here. The main big ben burger was a real treat! I recommend anyone in the area to go here for a lunch. They also have Bombardier on tap, which is my favourite beer.

Such a shame.... - Can we add Negative Star ratings please?

Monday 4th July, 2011 - Walking into this cosy establishment yesterday evening after the Wimbledon finals, i was looking forward to a nice glass of wine and evening banter with my twin sister and our boyfriends, however upon placing our orders at the bar, the bar-lady asks to see her ID (of course she was flattered however I'm not too sure how to take it yet given we are identical twins right down to the last freckle). Giggling we reveal our identical twin status. She seemed a bit perplexed at this term so we show both our UK driving licenses, same details just different name....'twins'. Taking our licenses she wonders off for a bit returning with the Duty Manager at her side who quickly proudly informs us that my DL is fake and he wont serve me! after a lot of laughs, we realised he wasn't joking to which I asked him what exactly about this license looks fake, knowing full well that of course it was real. He looks at me and says in his opinion because its not identical to my sister's license that it is fake. At this point I would like to point out that my sister recently re-issued her license last year upon completion of her motorbike license but then this is clearly mentioned on the back of the DL. Mine was still the 'old-ish model' but given we are 25, hardly old, I would like to think that a "Duty Manager" in South Ken. can at least recognise this not to be fake.
Anyway to prove that it was not a fake, I pull out several other valid ID cards including my UAE Driving license, my BUPA Medical ID card, even my Gym membership! all of which the impressive Duty Manager doesn't even want to look at. At this point I realise that it must be another reason for this and one cannot reason with these kind of people. Its just sad that such an establishment is ruined by poor education of their staff. Suggestion to Management - TRAIN YOUR STAFF

Pleasant Local - This place is so friendly they bring you a burger as soon as you sit down! Actually, it was for the table next to me, as they were quick to point out. We all had a bit of a laugh about mind-reading - I had only just picked up the menu. I immediately ordered one, and wandered over to the bar to get the beers in. Shortly after I sat down again, my burger arrived hot and juicy and still sizzling, and with decent silverware too. I was well impressed, not only with the speed and service on a busy night, with the upstairs bit booked out for a private function, but also by the fact that it seemed to be a freshly-made beef patty, not the defrosted heated-up kind you often get in a pub. The menu was more traditional than gastro pub, but the meal I had was easily up to gastro pub standards.
It's quite big with plenty of seating, and although there was a football match on 2 flatscreen TV's downstairs, it wasn't intrusive, just blending in to the general background hubbub and music. Busy yet attentive, a pleasant atmosphere in which to while away a few bevvies with some mates, I'll definitely bear it in mind next time I'm down that way.
