| I've walked past this pub several times over the years and never bothered going in. It was so cold yesterday though that we needed to find a stop off on our trek along the Strand, so we decided to pop in for a swifty. I was very impressed - excellent atmosphere and pleasantly busy, there were 5 guest ales on IIRC - I enjoyed the Sharps Nadelik which was tip top while my associates played it safe on the Gales Seafarers, which I was informed was fine too. I will probably return here, as like someone has mentioned, there aren't too many decent boozers around here. Sharp - 20 Dec 2009 11:33 |
| Nice enough pub opposite the Royal Courts of Justice, set in a mock tudor building that proclaims to have a much older heritage than the blantantly fake beams suggest. Tried the 'Old Hooky' which was in pretty good shape, plus an underwhelming Wheatbeer from Adnams. There were two or three other ales on offer, including Hog's Back RIP and at least one seasonal beer. Fairly crowded on a Friday night, especially along the narrow section from the end of the bar to the rear door, but we'd had the foresight to reserve a table, which made for a good night for our large group. The rear section of the pub can seemingly be reserved as well and an upstairs bar was advertised, but closed when I was there. Pubsignman - 17 Dec 2009 23:43 |
| Quite cosy when it's not busy. Not a bad place to spend an evening considering the choice of pubs in the area. telephones_and_toliets - 27 Nov 2009 22:35 |
| Licensee tries hard, knows his beer and is very welcoming but is very let down by his staff. If you obviously don't want to be there then don't pretend you do. (And don't pretend that it is a big effort to walk 5 yards to the end of the bar where 8 blokes are about to put £150 over the ramp in a lunch time). She is not doing anyone a favour, and the 8 blokes and £150 are now safely elsewhere most lunchtimes. CHEER UP LOVE,IT MIGHT NEVER HAPPEN! harrythebastard - 11 Nov 2009 23:25 |
| Popped in here on the off-chance to kill some time to heading to The Quad (for my sins) across the road on Saturday. Not bad. Sure, 'Mock Tudor' is probably an understatement - plenty of emphasis on the lowness of the beams, being able to sit on a barrel etc - especially as it is offset by the presence of two large televisions in opposite corners. But a fair pump selection (including T.E.A which seems to be a bit rare at the moment) and its proximity to Temple station mark it down as a fine round-linker - although it wouldn't be the highlight of it. getsit - 3 Nov 2009 23:00 |
