| Rather surprisingly a proper pub in Shoreditch without all the fuss and money being poured into it to try and create it. Still packed to the gills with trendy types. Landlord and Lady seemed nice enough to me. Decent pint of Pride, but not special by any means. Sad to see from the comments below that they are being forced out to create, I imagine, a faux dingy east end boozer, instead of the real one that is here. mrse1 - 20 Apr 2009 11:58 |
| The landlord may appear grumpy to some, but have you ever tried talking to him or even offering him a drink? He's miserable because of the enormous amount of demanding, self-regarding twats that he has had to put up. In any case, he and his wife, who have run this as the closest you'll get to a proper local in this area, have been given notice as the place is marked for a massive re-furb and re-branding as something unrecognisable as a pub. Shame. Stallywag - 7 Feb 2009 20:40 |
| I had sunday lunch here once, and we counted 14 different types of vegetable, and the amount of beef was good too. I had a hangover as well, which disappeared after eating this epic lunch - enabling me to create another one. The_Rotter - 16 Nov 2007 15:54 |
| Visited here last night; only two real ales on (London Pride and Greene King IPA). The Pride was OK but not wonderfully well-kept. I note the comments about the grumpiness of the landlord; if this was the chap who served me then I'd say he's more disengaged than actively unpleasant, an important distinction I think.

| Not a proper locals pub, because it has been discovered. People mix alright but I have found the place shut on Saturday evenings - trying to keep the 'twat' numbers down perhaps. Shame cause it is one of the few in that area with excellent beer, legendary sunday roasts, and a tatty but effective beer garden. bertsmith - 9 Mar 2007 17:32 |
