Small, rather posh and expensive not-really-a-pub in Farringdon. Adnams Broadside was £3.20 a pint! (March 2007) It also took ages to actually get served because the staff member taking my order kept getting distracted. That part was really quite odd; it almost felt like he was just playing at being behind the bar. |

As of March 2007, Adnams Broadside was £3.20 a pint! It also took ages for [[Kake]] to actually get served because the staff member taking my order kept getting distracted. That part was really quite odd; it almost felt like he was just playing at being behind the bar. |
They do food, plus there's an actual restaurant downstairs. |

It's not really the sort of place where you spend the evening; more a meeting point before you move on somewhere else (downstairs, or somewhere else nearby, or one of the other places in the Bleeding Heart group, a little further down the yard). But as a meeting point, it does the job. In the upstairs (pub) area, they have tables against the bar. [[bob]] found the beer to be pretty good. |

They do food, plus there's an actual dining area downstairs (as well as a separate Bistro and Restaurant further into the Yard). [[Ewan]] had lunch downstairs, and although the service was slightly slow, the food was all mostly excellent from a very good menu <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/55935853@N00/4139876933/sizes/l/ photo of menu in November 2009]</small>. A starter of crab cakes (actually just one, £7.50) <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/55935853@N00/4140639166/ photo]</small> and wild rabbit pâté (£6.50) <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/55935853@N00/4139878003/ photo]</small> were both fine, but the spit-roast suckling pig main (£14) <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/55935853@N00/4140639980/ photo]</small> was hearty, while [[Ewan]]'s grilled rump steak with fries and Béarnaise sauce (£15) <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/55935853@N00/4139880647/ photo]</small> had some particularly fine chips and the steak was mostly cooked as ordered (pleasingly rare and bloody, though a smaller piece was much more chewy and overdone). |
Strange for having tables against the bar. The beer was pretty good. -- [[bob]] |

[[Leon]] went with friends at 8am for breakfast. The Full English was actually quite good, but the service was terrible - they would always do something else before helping us. The food took half an hour to arrive, which is spectacularly slow for breakfast. It came to ten pounds per head. We did not leave service. [[Penfold]] agrees with Leon. Tea also weak and insipid, sadly. Breakfast better and pricier than a greasy spoon :) See also: * [http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/comments.shtml/2301/ Beer In The Evening comments] * [http://fancyapint.com/pub/318 Fancyapint review] |
