This place is a student bar with loud music and four draught lagers and some Strongbow.
I�m not a student so I wont be going here again.

Give 6th form students �1k and tell them to decorate a pub...this is probably what you'll end up with. Blow most of it on quirky chairs, and spend about 13p on the toilets

Quirky, decor, nice tunes, feels good, then.......... broken lock on the toilet door, no soap, no hand dryer. Only go if you reckon you'll never need a wee.
|
Bewildering decor - sat on a table featuring a church pew and two stools that appeared to come from a Parisian prostitute's boudoir. As seems typical of this area, poor choice of beer and pricy with it.

Had a classic conversation with the barman in here back in the good old days of the dancing girls.
Me: What's with the big hole in the wall?
Him: A customer did it.
Me: How?
Him: With his head.
Me: Why?
Him: <snarling> He was leaving.
I think he was an ex-marine. Definitely hard as nails.

Lord how I miss those strippers..

This pub is really fantastic. Especially as I hear this Saturday 26th, a band from South London called 23frames are playing!
They are well worth the visit to this trendy corner of London's trendy East end!

Unfortunatly this pub has changed a lot recently. The punk as f**k barmaid has moved to the goerge & dragon and ts had quite a shabby make over, which i think was to make it more up market. It does pretty good coctail but if you want to drink in a clean, atmosphereic coctail bar you're only a minutes walk from Hoxton Square.

Great dive in former strip-joint.
Punk as f**k barmaids,
Guys called Volunteer do great DJ residency with live acts first friday of each month. Often ther's other good punk and electro nights. Don't upset the manager Kat, she'll bite your balls off!
