| Gastropub on the King's Road in [[Locale Chelsea|Chelsea]]. Prior to December 2008, it was a decent, unpretentious boozer; it was then acquired by the [[Category ETM Group|ETM Group]] and closed for refurbishment. It reopened as a gastropub in April 2009. |

Post-refurb, it's divided into two parts, with the lighter, airier front section dedicated to drinking (four largish tables, and a couple of leather couches), and the cosier back section laid with cutlery and napkins for dining. There's also a bookable function room upstairs, which a sign seen in April 2009 indicated was free to hire (though there's a minimum spend). As of February 2010, the upstairs 'Billiards Room' has three pool tables. |
[[Ewan]] and Jo visited in July 2008, prior to the refurb. As far as the local drinking establishments go, this one's far less pretentious, and no worse for that. There's nothing remarkable about the interior: it's fairly bland, in a chain pub sort of way, but it has plenty of seating, good value pints, and upstairs there's a pool room with two tables. |

[[Kake]] visited on a Wednesday afternoon in late April 2009, shortly after the refurb. Although the inside was finished and decorated, they were still painting the outside — but a sign on the door assured potential customers that they were open for business. Music was playing (ska). |
There are four handpumps for ale, with Brains SA and SA Gold, London Pride and Land of My Fathers on a July 2008 visit (though the latter two were off at that time). Lagers are pretty standard and include Peroni. A pint of the Brains and a large glass of pinot grigio came to £7.75. |

Four handpulls dispense real ale, with Adnam's Bitter (£1.70/half), Adnam's Broadside, and London Pride. On a visit in February 2010, Adnam's still dominated the pumps (Broadside, £3.40/pint, and Lighthouse) along with Pride. They also have Tiger lager on draught along with a number of other basics. |
There are special offers advertised like two meals for £10. A quiz machine sits in the corner by the bar, and television screens show sport but are not particularly obvious or intrusive (the sound isn't on). |

Accessibility: One step up to get in, one more step down to the restaurant area, and toilets are up a flight of stairs. The toilet cubicles are also quite hard to actually get into, at least in the ladies'. |
