| an old fashioned pub, but a welcome one, good to see a normal 70's pub still intact. reliably informed that this is a Spurs pub so Gooners beware TheGP - 3 Jul 2009 09:38 |
| Fine traditional single bar pub in a Clerkenwell side street. The pub has been spruced up recently and the poster below who complained about uncomfortable seats should find it more comfortable now. The pub is celebrating its 250 years anniversary this year - yes it goes back to 1759 - and, although it doesn't have the feel of a 250 year old pub, there is still a very traditional feel to it, enhanced by the wood pannelling, lighting and carpets. Read more about the pub, including pictures of the refurb,on its own very informative web site Formerly a Manns pub - note the bar back - its now in the Enterprise Inns pub stable. There's a subcontracted Thai food operation, very well regarded apparently Beers on were Wadworths 6X, Black Sheep and Adnams, all at a very reasonable £ 2.70p. Nice to see Mine Host and Hostess mingling and chatting with the regulars - an all too rare sight, especially in London. Yes, I'd definitely come here again JohnBonser - 26 Feb 2009 13:31 |
| It's a real throwback of a pub. Especially for this part of London. Like something out of the 70's, a Life on Mars type pub. Not necessarily a good thing, or a bad thing, although on balance i'd tend to the view it's a good thing places like this still exist, especially in ec1. Bitter isn't amazingly well kept though, so 6/10 mps77 - 5 Feb 2009 16:39 |
| An interesting pub with real character. Not one for the "beautiful people". Good food and beer. THE_SWAN - 1 Nov 2008 22:59 |
| Not a lot to recommend this pub, located as it is on one of London’s oldest thoroughfares. Uncomfortable seats; and nothing else in the way of internal features worth mentioning. But one first for me – it’s the first pub I have been in which had a sign advertising the forthcoming new gents’ toilets. Had a pint of Wadworth’s 6X which was OK. Not worth going out of one’s way to visit – but I didn’t try the Thai food which did look pretty good. RexRattus - 29 Mar 2008 00:50 |
