| Originally spotted this pub from the balcony of my parents' place in the Barbican some years ago and what a find it was - hadn't been in there for ages until a wedding yesterday at the adjacent St Bartholomew's church (well worth a visit in it's own right) and wasn't at all surprised to find the groom and several of the other guests enjoying a livener before the ceremony. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area. tim_eyles - 17 May 2009 18:13 |
| Last night i had the best pint of OBB i have ever had, really shocked me as i am not a great fan of Sam Smiths, last night changed my mind. Cracking little back street pub with great staff and firendly locals. Well worth a visit. wellinformed - 21 Jan 2009 12:11 |
| A nice, atmospheric little pub that I was first introduced to about 13 years ago. The quality of the OBB isn't the best that I've ever tasted but at the same time it's good nonetheless. Worth a look if you're in the area. MINTYBOOM - 29 Nov 2008 17:37 |

| A Sam Smith’s pub, so obviously only expect the Sam Smith’s range of beers. But they do have OBB on handpump. Full of what looks like original features, but could be modern replacements bearing in mind Sam Smith’s record of sympathetic and tasteful replacements. As the RS doesn’t appear in CAMRA’s London inventory of heritage pubs then I suppose they must be modern reproductions. Interestingly they have gone for traditional lino flooring, and what appears to be recycled pews forming the majority of the seating. This is a super little pub in a quiet-ish setting opposite St Bartholomew’s church a few feet away from Smithfield market. If only they did a better ale than OBB (I’m not a fan)! But I still like the pub. RexRattus - 31 Aug 2008 23:33 |
