RateBeer Brew Tour Guide's Comments
Londoners in the know will wonder why Harrod’s is listed on RateBeer’s London beer tour since Harrod’s beer selection is fairly poor.

The reason: Out-of-town beer hunters often want to visit Harrod’s legendary food halls and thus need to know that Harrod’s has a meager beer selection.

The Harrod’s food halls really have no beer outside of their own one 1849 lager. The bar downstairs is charming I suppose and serves Harrods on tap as well as some more common beers. Fine place to hang out if friends/family are blowing a fortune upstairs...

The Green Man pub in the basement is worth the visit. A few Fullers on cask, and it’s a bit more pricey than other pubs, but the food servings have always been generous and delicious. The chit gets admission to the loo.

Didnt know that this was added as a place, I think you could walk into nearly any pub in London and have a better range of beers. The wanker at the door told me to take my rucksack off too. Worth a look to see upper class London pretence at its finest. Go in and use their toilet, take a photo then leave.

Huge store, rather bad for the beer scene though as others have said. Interesting place to stop by though if you happen to be in London for a holiday.

Beautiful trades center but completely unfit to search new beers. Better to conserve the money for true pub or the truthful beer store. Poor choice and sometimes also with beers of easy availablety.

I agree with the other comments. The only beer that it’s worth to try is the "Hogs Back A over T", as far as I remember (and probably the Harvey’s Imperial Stout).

Save your money for the pubs and the proper beer stores. Don’t give it to the Phoney Pharoah. Very few beers, very high prices. I just can’t see why visitors feel that Harrods is such an essential port of call. But then I’m not well known for my appreciation of the "shopping experience".

Rubbish!! Theres less than 10 beers here now, and its really crowded. Go there once, but if you dont like shopping avoid it.

Not much beer going on here. They have the OK house beer, and a couple of others. There is apparently a bar somewhere inside with a few casks, but nothing Interesting, I hear. The lunch I had here was very nice though. If you have a friend of family visiting London send them to Selfridges instead, it’s just as easy to get to and they have a better beer selection.
