| I wasn't as impressed by the interior as everybody else is but my visit revealed this as a great rock pub on a Saturday. Yes, rock not metal. Beer was good, people seemed nice and the music is excellent. crazyk - 12 Apr 2008 17:28 |
| DATE OF VISIT: 09/04/08 Decided to have a look in whilst out down Oxford Street. I have been to other Eerie Pub Co ones before in Nottingham and the Black Widow down Gloucester Road all of which have a goth/horror theme. Disappointed there were no ales available that day so opted for the Straropramen instead. Also had the rump stake all of which came to £12.21. The toilets were clean but as I only visited at lunchtime I couldn't say how busy this place gets during the evening. Would I recommend this place? Yes by virtue of it's novelty value and it's close proximity to Oxford Street making it ideal to rest those weary feet after hitting the shops. If you're a tradionalist when it comes to drinking then this may not be for you and it feels as if you're having a pint whilst visiting the London Dungeon but otherwise if you're not too serious about your drinking then I guess you could do much worse... 7/10 wezmiester - 11 Apr 2008 12:26 |
| This pub is the tits. Themed on old london ghostly macabre oaky woods you half expect the headless horseman to ride you through the night amongst the brass bottomed girls and the theatrically incandesant ethereal atmosphere. Bollocks to the rest of you, this gets a stonking 10. The_Lej - 31 Mar 2008 15:19 |
| Quirky, weird, inventive, scary, strange, fantastic, just some of the words that came to mind when I walked into Ben Crouch’s Tavern, although I was about 7 pints down by that stage so I could probably add confused as well. Despite its dark gothic theme it succeeds in not restricting itself to any particular clientele and is a place that everyone should visit if only out of curiosity. It reminded me of Frankensteins in Edinburgh (q.v.) which is a bar built inside an old church. Millay - 21 Mar 2008 14:19 |
| Great location, great music...can get a bit packed because of that but well worth it. UrbanGenieThing - 20 Mar 2008 12:17 |
