| The 3.3 rating for this place is a little unfair I think. By all means it’s very much a Thorpe Park version of an East End boozer, but the beer is ok. The grot has a certain charm, and although it seems to be populated by middle aged fashionistas trying to strike a pose, the atmosphere and the juke box are quite good. Funniest thing I thought was the graffiti in the Gents, which seems to me to have been scrawled on by whoever did the makeover, in an attempt to heighten the grunge, rather than being the rantings of anyone real. mrse1 - 14 Apr 2009 09:06 |
| 5 years on from 'Nathan Barley' and the Bricklayers' Arms still attracts hordes of the asymmetrically-coiffed, night after night. Maybe it had a quiet patch, but they're definitely back and haven't got any less moronic. That, the garish neon sign and the high prices aside, I think the owners have tried so hard to do the retro-pub look that they've just managed to create an old-fashioned boozer, albeit populated largely by media/arts types rather than the 'pie'n'mash, boxing and loving their mums' boys in suits. It's really rather good, particularly now that the handpulls are back on (Caledonian IPA and Pride), and never less than entertaining. Worth a try, once at least. pablos13 - 26 Jan 2009 16:13 |
| Basic stripped down boozer, with sanded floors and gloss red paint over everything. Looks rubbish. The seating is rubbish. The outside smoking area is rubbish. The clientele seemed pretty rubbish. Stay away, it's a rubbish pub. krsone - 24 Jan 2008 08:32 |
