Worth the trip down here. Nice blend of pub and bistro. Lots of cask & kegs, take away beers also an option. Did not eat, but food looked good.

Visited with my wife during our honeymoon in London and Paris.
Tried the following:
Stancil India Brown Ale (cask)
Prairie Funky Gold Simcoe (draft)
Pressure Drop Bosko IPA (draft)
Weird Beard Saison 14 (draft)
Beers ranged from good to outstanding. Was pleasantly surprised to find Prairie on tap. Service was prompt and we enjoyed our cozy table at the back of the bar/dining area. Food was good too, my wife liked her wines. Our overall experience was excellent, and we would definitely would come back.

About a 7 minute from the Victoria rail station.
Bright and window filled spot, pleasant and inviting with a friendly and knowledgeable staff ready to serve up the brew.
Boutique brews they are...juicy new school IPA, as well as sours, pastry stouts and the like...taps, cask pours, bottles and cans....bottles from places like Cascade, Grimm, Evil Twin and many others.
Tasty burgers and similar upscale pub inspired fare.
Well worth a visit...quality all the way.

cool place out of the bustle of central London
the burgers were pretty good, just a pub menu which works for me
the beer list is pretty awesome. the draft list is extensive and 99% English beers which was great for me because I rarely get English craft. the bottle list is amazing as well, tons of American beers I can't even get in the US
staff was super cool, would definitely recommend this place

Great beers and good selection for london but not as many taps as i had expected. great beers but unfortunately the fact that they also serve wine and liquor contributed to a loud, overly drunk, non-beer focused crowd but still a cool place worth checking out. also very impressive selection of american bottles

Can't fault this place. Probably the nicest of the Craft Beer Co pubs, with a good vibe inside, friendly staff, and a concise range of cask and keg beers, as well as more bottles.

One of my go-to places as there is a pretty outstanding tap selection. 10 cask, 9 guest, 4 house taps. Tons of bottles too. The actual place isn't anything to get excited about...a large open area with tables...but it has a good feel to it. Obviously good beer crowd since people are coming here for the great selection, but no special vibe to speak of. Service varies to be honest. I've had some good beer conversations with the staff here, but also had a very transactional experience as well sometimes. Bottom line, if you want a great chance at great beers near Victoria, this is the place to go as long as you are not looking for any kind of traditional British pub experience. Casks kept very well.

Great food and a great selection of beer. Try the pub pies. The bartender was extremely knowledgeable and had some great recommendations. At the time they had 10 casks running and all 4 of the ones I sampled were in excellent condition.

I spent a couple of hours one lunch time in this pub as I was in the area. It's got a very good range of changing beers on tap & a extensive bottled beer list. It certainly has the feel of a place that can get very busy later on in the day, judging by the 30 plus people in at 2pm on a Tuesday afternoon. They only serve burgers from the kitchen, and on the pricey side. The food was good, but nothing special.
If I'm in the area again I might pop in for a beer but I would not go out of my way to visit.

The cream of the crop here is the bottled beer selection. There are US offerings here (purchase for on-prem or off-prem consumption) that one can't just go and buy most places in the US. Offerings from the local market and other countries (yes, Belgium, I'm looking at you) were in the mix as well.
The tap list included mostly locals, they seemed to be well rated options and varied to boot. Many pubs in the area won't have such a selection. Prices are agreeable and don't forget you can get half pours here in the UK pubs!
The food was somewhat limited but solid. You can pretty much be assured you are getting a burger of some ilk. A nice little array of sauces arrive along with your burger, including a really nice ketchup that's influenced by Bloody Mary makings.
And the bourbon list...you'll have to go see for yourself if this is your thing. If it is you won't be disappointed.
All in all, the beer highlight for my trip. I went twice!

A fine selection but certainly not world class. They have have around 8 cask beers and as many under pressure. They also have a wide selection of bottled beers. These can be bought for take away. The pub is nice with ample seating inside and out. Not too noisy. As is common sharing a large table with others is the norm. I chatted with a local and exchanged thoughts on some of the current beers.
I ordered a burger (the only thing really on the menu). It was average, nothing special. The bacon left a lot to be desired. If in the London area again I would seek out another pub before returning.

Went here about 5pm on a Friday night. The place was packed to the brim with people standing outside in groups with pints in hand. We ended up finding a place at a bar table. Most people were there for the beer selection. They have indoor and outdoor seating. They have a wide variety of local pump beers as well as a few draft beers. Tons of bottles. You also can buy bottles to go here. They have Crooked Stave and Cantillion bottles regularly. All of the beers that we tried were outstanding. Service was great. We got 2 different burgers with chips and they were wonderful. I cant say enough about this place. I would go back next time i am in London.

Went there based on BA reviews here and was delighted. This place is amazing. Sampled many of the cask and keg beers and knocked back 2 1/2 pints of excellent beer + 1 amazing bottle of small-batch recommended by the very knowledgeable staff based solely on what I told him I liked. An in-house partner beer (Double Inflatable Cowboy Hat (DIPA)) rivals the Dogfish Head 120. Went after dinner, so no report on the food.

Walked into Cask from an empty street and it was packed. Looking at the bottle selection and what was on hand-pump and draft I was quite impressed. The bartender was knowledgable and friendly and the prices were fair for the overall quality of the brews, especially given a lot are quite rare or generally unavailable in almost all other London bars or US bars for that matter (they even had some Kuhnhenn and Short's, which really threw me off). I also loved that they had many UK/ Euro microbrews available in addition to traditional local cask ales. As for food, we sampled a couple pies and had the scotch eggs which were delicious. Definitely recommend a visit and a must try if you're in London as they mend traditional ales and modern craft beer quite nicely.

I visited this place last April, after living in England for about four months. The selection is pretty good, and you can find beer from the US, Europe, and England here. The food was pretty standard--fish and chips for me and a burger for my companion. Nothing outstanding there.
The main things about this place for me was the ability to find a range of beers in the city after having been in Grantham for so long. I love British beer, but it was nice to be able to get some unusual stuff, especially the oddities from back in the States. The selection is pretty incredible by British standards. By American standards it is slightly above-average.
