    Chips and Peanut sauce and a touch of mayo!
    Current
    The place is chilled out (if a bit hot inside on warmer days, oxymoron alert!). If peckish try the chips with lashings of peanut sauce and mayo. Quite a nice way to soak up some of the beers on tap. With the Euro's (2008) going on at the moment, this is usually rammed with dutch fans (from memory of euro 2004)

    West End Dutch Pub
    Current
    De Hems is a historic bar, located just off Shaftesbury Avenue, on the edge of China Town. It was built back in 1890, though was home to a tavern prior to that as well.

    The bar specialises in Dutch & Belgium beers, with several on tap. It also has a pretty tempting sounding food menu.

    Set over two stories, this is quite a lively pub, which is apparently 'the' place to go when there is a Dutch football game on.

    Possibly the best Dutch Pub in London!
    Current
    Quite possibly the best Dutch Pub in London. Great food and lots of Belgian beer including cherry Liefmans (Mmm, yummy!).

    The place is packed and extremely hot on Weekends, but it's ok during Weekdays and if you're lucky enough, you might find an empty leather sofa to go with your drink!!!

    A decent central London pub
    Current
    Lots of nice Belgian beer on tap so worth a visit. As others have noted it can get quite busy, smoky and noisy, especially on fridays when a lot of out of towners seem to drink here. But, overall definately not a bad place to get a drink in central London.

    Great place to get Belgian beer; they usually have something interesting (e.g. Kriek) on tap, as well as lots more in bottles. As others have said, it's usually pretty crowded. Quite dark inside too. In the summer they open up the front wall to let the air in. There's a bookable upstairs room which used to (possibly still does) host comedy nights.
