In an area full of chain bars and tacky tourist 'pubs', the Spread Eagle stands out as a pleasant, tradition boozer just steps away from the thronging crowds of Oxford Street.
The upstairs is available to hire and is a popular choice for parties as well as hosting a weekly open mic night every Monday.
They also show sports events on plasma screens and serve up some pub grub. The stairs to the toilet can seem like Everest after a few, but everyone likes a challenge every now and again.
