Overview
The Devonshire is a stunning return to proper London pub culture — a newly revived venue that has already made waves in the Soho drinking and dining scene. Located just off Piccadilly Circus, this multi-level venue blends traditional pub values with sharp design and some of the city’s best open-fire cooking upstairs.
The ground floor is a textbook example of what a London pub should be: wood-panelled walls, gleaming beer taps, tiled floors, and friendly, no-fuss service. Cask ales are poured to perfection — including house favourites like Timothy Taylor’s Landlord — while lagers, Guinness, and a small but quality wine and spirits list round out the drinks offering. It's a space for standing at the bar or sliding into a quiet corner, welcoming both locals and West End wanderers.
Head upstairs and you’ll find The Grill Room, where chefs turn out standout cuts of meat, grilled seafood, and nostalgic British favourites — all cooked over coals with impressive finesse. The menu champions seasonal produce and bold, comforting flavours, and the dining space retains just enough pub atmosphere to feel connected, not stuffy.
The Devonshire is a love letter to how good a London pub can be when it gets everything right: drinks, food, setting, and hospitality. A genuine new classic in the making, with just the right amount of Soho swagger.
