Review Insights

The Lieutenant’s Pump is a favourite for its cozy pub feel and solid food. The wings are a top pick—especially on Wing Night—and the menu offers a surprisingly wide range of tasty, reasonably priced options. Families appreciate the little extras like toys for kids, while the spacious patio is a popular choice for outdoor dining. The staff are known for their friendly, attentive service, and the beer selection is impressive. It can feel a bit cramped at times, but the warm atmosphere and quality pub fare keep people coming back. With its mix of classic British pub charm and a laid-back neighbourhood vibe, it’s a great spot for everything from casual drinks to a proper Sunday roast.
