The menus on their website look pretty good; a number of fish dishes as well as five kinds of sausage (including pheasant!). It sounds like the pies are of the "stew in a china dish with a piece of puff pastry floating on top" kind, though. Vegetarians look to be relatively poorly served, with a choice of veggie burger, veggie sausages, or veggie faux pie, although [http://www.thedanieldefoe.com/reviews.htm a review] suggests that the daily specials may make up for this. Food is served 4pm-9:30pm Mon-Fri and noon-7:30pm Sat-Sun. |

There seems to have been a change of management some time in 2007. As of January 2008, they had a pretty good range of ales (usually about four on the hand pumps; one example is Tribute) and draft lagers including Kirin and Red Stripe. [[Katie]] noticed some single malts behind the bar but can't remember exactly what they were. They sell scampi fries and bacon fries. Two pints and a couple of bags of crisps/scampi fries were about £7. |
The [http://www.timeout.com/london/bars/reviews/7739.html Time Out review] suggests that the beer garden is rather small. However, checking with the pub via email reveals that (as of July 2007) it's being redesigned to include a canopied smoking area. |

The clientele was mainly youngish trendy Stokeyites, not as filled with kiddies as other pubs in the area, and it didn't seem to be as busy on a weekday evening as, say, the Three Crowns further up Church Street. |

Menu was <i>very</i> much of the gourmet burger/monkfish and parma ham/asparagus risotto variety, with mains costing about £8-9 on average. Four (I think) vegetarian choices, all pretty heavy on the cheese and eggs, so not very vegan-friendly. (Food serving times as of July 2007 were 4pm-9:30pm Mon-Fri and noon-7:30pm Sat-Sun; not sure if this predates or postdates the management change --[[Kake]].) |
