Like many pubs in Central London the clientele vary from local residents to civil servants to city slickers all looking for a piece of a cold, refreshing beer shaped pie.

Atmosphere/Decor
The Warwick holds a nice, relaxed atmosphere that has an upmarket feel but not pretentiously
so. It's a nice warm feel and the decor is bright and has some interesting pictures and helps to retain a local feel, the windows are large enough to allow light in from the street or let you watch the world go by.
Price
Not great, 2 pints for £8, not the worst in the area but still a tad over average prices.
Quality Of Toilet
Toilets are clean, 3x urinals and 1x cubicle.
Yellow urinal cakes, hot tap doesn't work (at time of writing). Easy to identify which is ladies and
which is men's.
Quality Of Barmaid
Bar staff were knowledgeable, friendly and pretty!
