picture of White LionShould you need a meeting up point close to Covent Garden tube, then this pub's as good as any other. It offers a good selection of real ales and also traditional pub grub at decent prices. Just like the other Nicholson's rebrands in the West End you'll find a traditional pub interior (in this case, one not as old as it may at first appear) and an upstairs room if you need more space. There are certainly better pubs to be had in Covent Garden - but also ones that are far, far worse.
