In here on Thursday, Spitfire, Master Brew and the seasonal Early Bird. Looked like there was one main room with a function room upstairs. Horseshoe bar, cothooks attached but not many bar stools. Large windows all round and various rugby memorabilia on the walls. Paved drinking area outside.

Pleasant enough.

Great pub, needs a new dart board mind. The staff are friendly especially Beth (cute too). The cheesy chips are good and orangeboom is a top lager, even at £3.05 a pint! Definitely worth a visit

Clerkenwell? Surely Bloomsbury?

I'm not the World's biggest Shepherd Neame fan, though I am coming around to Spitfire, MasterBrew and the seasonal Late Red -- all of which are on tap here and in good condition.

The staff are friendly and the food is fair. It fills up with suits after work, but empties by 8pm or 9pm.

Not a huge fan of Shepherd Neame but a perfectly OK place for a cheeky lunchtime pint or a evening session. On a bit on a side street so minimal tourist trade (a huge bonus). Food was typical pub grub but edible, friendly and attentive staff and room to sit and enjoy.

Only downside for me was it got very smoky after a couple of hours but come July 07 that will be a thing of the past...What joy!!
