A place worth knowing
The Seven Stars rewards the short detour to Carey Street with a small historic pub and a kitchen that follows the day’s ingredients. Roxy Beaujolais changes the blackboard menu according to availability, so there is no fixed list of dishes to plan around.
This is a walk-in stop: the pub does not take reservations. Come with some flexibility, read the board and let a drink turn into lunch if a table opens up.
