This long-standing Good Beer Guide pub in Kensington has now closed due to the retirement of its owners, according to the Fancyapint review.

Good Beer Guide pub in Kensington.

It's an airy and relaxed pub, sporting a high ceiling and big windows that fill it with light; pfig found it very pleasant. There are large tables with comfy leather-backed benches, as well as smaller tables dotted around the place. There's another seating area up a few steps at the back of the pub. On a Tuesday evening in July 2009, the place wasn't busy at all, and so not too loud.

Beer-wise, on a 2008 visit, pfig had Blindmans and Long John Silver, which were very good (particularly the Long John Silver). In July 2009, there were three handpulls with two beers on, Hog's Back TEA and Hop, though not in best condition.

The food is Mexican, as is the chef: we had (real) nachos, tacos dorados (perfect seasoning and crispiness), quesadillas de pollo and tostadas de feta. Everyone found the food excellent. We visited again in November 2008, a large-ish group of people. Had lots of food (still Mexican, still excellent) and beer (also quite good).

It was quiz night (Tuesday), which was actually lots of fun.
