Avoid -- In the ladies loo the splattered seat was laying on the floor, there was no paper or soap to be found. When I informed the manager, he told me, "Women are just like that." If that's how their public areas are maintained, just imagine the kitchen.

A pretty good pub for an after work beer, the Landlord is usually in good condition and is well worth a second and third pint. There's usually an interesting mix of bohemian types and suits, the music is always good (if at times a little loud, or am I just a little too old?).

The barstaff are friendly but I prefer the cutsie redhead to the blonde!

Nice pub, much better than the fox. And the blonde barmaid is quite fit.

Clean, tidy, quite busy even on a Monday.
Good service, good selection of drinks and looks like a decent menu. Certainly alot better than some of the other Hoxton Goon-palaces nearby. Check it out.

Solid pub. Open plan and visually rather like being in a black & white film. Strange atmospheric minimalism and coldness about the place - but that could just be coz I went there on a Monday night. Acceptable for a couple of pints, but you wouldn't want to get messy in there.

I met a friend here for evening food and quiet drinks on a week night. The upstairs part of the bar (serving food) had a beautiful ambience, candles and the correct lighting (which is usually so hard to find). The menu was really good and quite challenging. Really good service by a burly eastend man (it seemed a bit surreal), but overall excellent choice for some reasonably priced food during the week. Quite a romantic setting, nice choice for a first date I'd say.

Gem of a boozer.

The ladies behind the bar serve you with a style and standard of service thats sadly lacking in London these days. Generally quiet, decent range of beverages, and food during the day. Come experience the magic that is.....!
