How can a Sam Smith's pub this busy not serve 'real' Old Brewery Bitter on handpump? The keg version is still cheap, but I suggest going to the nearby Angel or Princess Louise instead... Disappointing.

Pretty good. Nice and quiet on a saturday afternoon, with light flooding in through the windows. One of the barmen from the French House was sat in the corner. Didn't see him crack a smile here, either.

Thank God for Sam Smith's - like their beer or not, their approach to pubs is a buffer against the rising tide of mediocrity.

Good food. Friendly staff. Handy for where I work.

They only have keg beers, but still, it's cheap so mustn't grumble too much.

It's not the best SS pub by a long way but it is still a decent little place to get a drink and space to sit outside, which you don't get everywhere. I wouldn't go out of your way to make a visit. Better than next door and a good place to pop in if you are planning on buying an umbrella!!!

A Sam Smiths pub that was an unexpected find. Was full of tourists, far more than the usual Sam Smiths outfit.

Was OK, but there are better SS pubs in the centre.
