| Tucked away on Saffron Hill just off Farringdon Road this is a nice L shaped room with a relaxed atmosphere. Beers on offer were Black Sheep, Adnams, 6X and Brakspears Oxford Gold. There was a mixed crowd in here and it seemed a decent place to spend the evening. murgatroyd - 22 Dec 2009 00:50 |
| Backstreet pub that I'd never come across before. The interior is a throwback to the 1970s and makes a nice change from the standard modern pub look. However, there was nothing else that really stood out with the place. Real ales were Wadworth 6X, Brakspear Oxford Gold & Adnams Bitter and were not in particularly good condition. blue_scrumpy - 1 Nov 2009 12:52 |

| The first things that I spotted as I walked into this good old L-shaped boozer were the three plasma screens and the projector on the back wall which were showing the demise of England in the cricket. It’s a shame about the result, but not a shame that I found this pub as the atmosphere was good and the governor and staff were very friendly. Black Sheep, Oxford Gold, Adnams and 6X were all available along with Scrumpy Jack, Amstel and a standard draught selection which included some very good Guinness. Thai food is available for those who are hungry, but I didn’t see anyone making use of this facility. There is an advertised garden terrace out the back which is actually a small courtyard, but it is better than standing in the street whilst having a smoke. This is an excellent pub for sports fans that prefer to drink in a boozer rather than a chain sports bar and I will certainly be back when next in the area. Strongers - 5 Oct 2009 14:14 |
| I agree with the reviewer who uses the word "throwback": this is one of those pubs that goes on, unchanging, while life bustles around it. I've visited it occasionally over the years but have always found it a bit unremarkable, to be honest. The bar is L-shaped, with high ceilings that give a nice roomy atmosphere, and the serving area looks onto the bit of the "L" furthest from the road. Normally three or four real ales available, albeit not of an enormously interesting kind. Thai food is available. I admire the way this survives with a relatively local atmosphere, but it's not a pub worth travelling to visit. grecian - 2 Sep 2009 10:20 |
