Pub just off Farringdon Road, serving Thai food.

Note that it's closed on weekends.

The signage makes much of its history as a "18th Century Tavern", but the decor and ambience are very much that of a standard traditional 20th century pub, with a patterned carpet, half-frosted windows, a wrought iron gantry over the bar, and an illuminated bar back sign advertising Manns (a defunct London brewery).  Tables are square, varnished wood, and a reasonable size, while seating is provided by a mix of banquettes, low stools, and a few chairs.  There's plenty of standing room around the bar, as well as a few bar stools.

There's a tiny enclosed courtyard out the back for smokers, with just one small normal height table and two taller ones for standing at.  It does have a pull-out canopy for sheltering from the weather.

[[Kake]] and [[Ewan]] visited on a Monday afternoon in September 2011.  There were a few other customers in, all men, some in suits.  Music was playing &#8212; basic MOR on the Magic TV music channel.  Three of the four handpumps were on, offering Brakspear Oxford Gold (&pound;3.20 for two halves), Adnams Bitter, and Wadworth 6X.

There's a separate counter for ordering Thai food, which according to a menu seen in September 2011 <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/6119443557/ photo 1]</small>, <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/6119988186/ photo 2]</small> is served noon-3pm and 5:30pm-9:30pm Mon-Thu and noon-9:30pm Fri.

Accessibility: A step to get in.  Stepfree to bar and seating area once you're in (can't remember about the smoking courtyard).  There's a door marked "disabled toilet" on the ground floor, but it was locked on our visit (and not with a RADAR lock).  The other toilets are in the basement, down a straight stairwell with a handrail all the way down.
