This small space sits at the very edge of the Great Eastern Market area of the shopping centre, looking out onto the rail station entrance (the DLR is on the other side of the rail station). In the bar area there are eight high tables with stools, as well as a single ring of comfy sofas. There are also a couple of tables outside by the shopping centre entrance <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/55935853@N00/6245589465/ photo of interior]</small>. The microbrewery side of the bar was still boarded up on [[Ewan]]'s visit early in October 2011. |

A microbrewery and beer bar just by Stratford International Station, at the edge of the Westfield Stratford City shopping centre. It opened with the centre in September 2011, although the microbrewery didn't open until 14 October, and is operated by the people behind Utobeer in Borough Market.

There are six handpulls for ale and four draught taps at the bar, with very few pumpclips on Ewan's visit, but rather a chalkboard to the side of the bar listing availability. For ales, they had Thornbridge Brother Rabbit (£3.50/pint) and Oakham JHB (£3.50/pint), as well as Grolsch (£3.90/pint) and Harviestoun Schiehallion (£4.20/pint) on draught. There is also a large selection of bottled beers in the fridges behind the bar, as you might expect from the Utobeer people. Two ciders are dispensed from cardboard boxes at the edge of the bar area.
A board lists a short food menu, mostly pasta-based.
Accessibility: There are no steps into the bar, as it is on the same floor space as adjoining food outlets in the shopping centre. The door by the bar also leads directly out to the station.
