An interesting experience! Popped in for a quick pint (no real ale unfortunately) and met a wild and very drunk woman and her slightly more sober friend (added plus, a Tottenham supporter!)
Landlord seemed friendly enough.
For real beer, McGlynns is a better bet.

Millay, I'm with kind of with you, though would recommend giving up with the trying occasionally.
STOP FLOGGING A DEAD HORSE!
This pub is indeed a shitehole.
Presumably the positive reviews are from the locals/mutants who drink here, thankfully I'm not one of them.
Was shoved in here out of desperation and wish I had bought a can of Special Brew from the offie and drunk it on the street instead.
I sat with my back to the bar the whole time, hairs pricking on the back of my neck throughout, while there was constant shouting and abuse from the "friendly" locals.
Got the major sweaty eyeball on arriving and for the duration of our stay.

General feeling - AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!

I give this one a go now and again but always feel uncomfortable walking in and invariably sink a quick pint and go somewhere a little more friendly. The sign to the “Restaurant” is laughable, it’s just another bar, perhaps The Dolphin thinks this is the way forward in KX’s brave new world. I certainly wouldn’t recommend this pub to anyone stepping off the Eurostar and I imagine neither would it’s regulars.

uh oh - candles on the tables?

Yup, normality2000, landlord is certainly grumpy. I like that.
