Ordinary, Special, Sambrooks Junction and Mauldons Broomstick. Lucky to hit this during national pubs week. Decent back street boozer.

There's a good reason this pub has a locals feel to it, in that its superb position hidden amongst the Georian terraces of Clerkenwell mean it's off the radar of office workers and tourists, so the majority of punters at any one time are locals.
It was looking slendidly inviting festooned with hanging baskets when I searched it out again last week.
Yes the decor is a bit worn inside, but its an unspoilt back street local that Youngs have so far decreed to leave alone and not bugger about with, and for that we should be thankful.
Usually adecent fint and the London Gold lived up to that last week.

The London Region of the British Balloon and Airship club meets here on the last Wednesday in every month. The present landlord took over the pub in 2009. Pub grub is excellent as are the very well kept beers on tap. The large room upstairs is where we hold our meetings and we are made very welcome.

A time warp from 20 years ago with carpet that had seen better days even then. There was room downstairs but as outsiders we were 'sent' to a ghostly room upstairs where we could drink without interrupting the local people downstairs.

Young's shop whose main redeeming feature for me was that it had more room than more popular pubs round the corner.

Not sure it's worth going out of the way for and probably acceptable as y'local but not much else.

Decent not overly crowed pub with Youngs beers on tap - the Special was pretty good. Had the run of the rather splendid room upstairs.
