| nice interior, friendly staff, good range of beer and not too touristy. food mundane, though mozzzzzz - 27 Oct 2008 13:18 |
| 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 |
| I have attended a function here also last Wednesday and I was very impressed with the service and especially with the fresh , tasty buffet we had. I must say I did not expect such nice people to take over this pub after the previous people had completely ruined the image of the place.I strongly recommend it as it's a special place and very different from all the other pubs around it. alice_22 - 29 Jul 2008 21:34 |
