Only problem was the smell of sewage near the fireplace, I said it to one of the staff who said it was a regular occurrence but as the building is "listed" nothing could be done about it except light incense sticks...we were moved, but surely this is ridiculous and a serious health hazard "listed" me boll***s, they should hold back their rates until something is done about it, the girl server seemed embarrassed about the smell, but why should she have to explain and apologise for it!!! Its a nice pub with decent food and this must be a terrible situation to have to deal with. I wouldn't be a moaner about food/booze normally, but I have friends coming from Norway in the summer and the Woodford would be the kinda place I would bring them, but no fault to the pub, not now ! Anyone else here have this experience, or knowledge of it? This really pee's me off....if a place is doing its best and local bureaucracy puts barriers in front of them! Or am I reading it all wrong!

Massive tasteless portions with poor quality ingredients (plasticy cheese. A mountain of gloop. I also remember getting a pizza so burnt it was like charcoal. I very rarely send something back, and generally give places room for human error, but cripes it was B A D.

We were regulars there around 10 years ago but it went downhill drastically roughly 7 years ago and we didn't return again until two years ago and we noticed the improvements in all aspects immediately, from menu selection, staff, price and most importantly quality. There's a faction on here that look down there nose on Luigi's & call it fast food but that's just the elitist coming out of them so they can rave about their experience in itchy coochy coo & orso or wherever else is hip & niche at the moment but if you're in the city between 1 & 4 on a weekday you won't find a better lunch menu than Luigi's. I was there last Thursday and got the garlic mushrooms to start followed by a BBQ pork skewer with chips and salad washed down with a glass of beer for €13.50 and it was fab.

It's a seriously good deal with plenty of options on the menu. We had wings(extra€1) and a ceasar salad for starters, mains were pizza and meatballs with linguine. The sauce on the meatballs was really really good. Easily as good as I've had anywhere. The bill came to €23 cos of the wings and I doubt there's a better lunch deal out there unless it's a soup and sandwich. I'm not in town too often but if it's on the next time I'm in I'll probably go for it again.
