user reviews of Friend at Hand, Bloomsbury

please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

Their Cask Marque accreditation flatters them a little. Three pumps, Pride, GK IPA and Bombardier and the first two had signs saying that the pipes were being cleaned when I went in Friday evening (could be they close weekends). The two pints of Bombardier that I saw being pulled were both woefully short on measure but I got the impression this is the sort of place where neither the staff nor the customers see this as an issue. On the plus side they have Hoegaarden, Star and Leffe on tap and there are plenty of attentive bar staff.

Disabled access, by a slight ramp in the front entrance, but no disabled toilet.

Went into this pub last night and had a bite to eat. I had a Steak and ale pie with chips, veg and gravy which was outstanding. The staff were excellent and the beer had a great selection, i had a Bulmers over ice which was served in a bulmers glass as well. Will be recommending this to friends and returning myself.
