The Plum Tree, Holborn

Good looking place with a nice front bar, a cosy mezzanine area and a large basement with bar. Very friendly staff, good lunch & evening menu & above average quality wine list that has some stars & is modestly priced. A decent range of beers for a relatively small place. Available in 3 areas for functions and appears popular for this, as well as quite a nice outside seating area protected from the main road by a barrier wall. Regular street parties on busy nights.

Has free WiFi and were happy to serve a coffee to a surfer

The Market Trader, Aldgate

Went this week while still under restoration, it is much nicer inside and was very welcoming with good service from the new owner. The menu looked good to, but had no time in this occaision to try it.
