In 2011, the pub was awarded "Londoner of the Day" by London 24 magazine. [1] The Not For Tourists Guide to London 2014 cited it as being "as good a pub you're likely to find anywhere". [2]

The pub closed in July 2017, and was reopened in early 2018 as the "Hampstead Lounge & Jazz Club". [3] However, Loci Pubs took over the pub and it is now back under its previous name and operating as a pub.
