A pub just by Lambeth North Station, with a striking name (though merely shortened from its name in a former life, The Horse & Groom).
The strikingly red-painted facade gives way to a bar stretching back fairly far inside. There's banquette seating and tables by the front window, and a more capacious area often booked out for office parties down the back. In the middle of the space is a vertiginous iron spiral stairway, which is kept roped off, in favour of a regular staircase along the wall (one less likely to cause accidents). It leads to an upstairs function room, which can be booked under reasonable terms.
The bar has a good range of spirits and wines, as well as a few handpulls for ale. On a March 2009 visit, they had Tribute, Bombardier and Brains SA. The lager range features the usual suspects, as well as Staropramen.
Music is played (fairly loudly) downstairs, matching the raucous mood of the after-work office crowd that makes up the mainstay of the clientele, it seems. However, it's not a bad place by any means.
