The Grenadier Pub in Mayfair has a strong sense of history to it with claims that the pub is in fact haunted by the ghost of an officer who was flogged to death for cheating at cards here. Paranormal presence or not this is a pub with a long record of military history and it€™s easy to see why admirals would like it here: Bayonets and sabres, a breast-plate and bear-skin are some of the original decorations that brace the walls of the Grenadier Pub. The intimate, dark and rustic wood panelled interior makes it highly suitable for gentlemen of rank.

The restaurant is at the back with seats for about 20 guests. The menu is essentially pub food with home-made burgers, fish and chips, sausage and mash. The Grenadier himself would probably have gone for a pint of one of their real ales but there are plenty of drinks to choose from at this Mayfair pub.
