A pub in Bloomsbury, just behind the Brunswick Centre, near Russell Square Station.

It's a single-room pub, though there are tables outside on the street, and in the passageway alongside the pub. It's a perfectly friendly place and a good bet for a drink in the area, especially if you like ale.

There are six ale handpumps, which on a September 2008 visit had Deuchars IPA, Bombardier, Courage Directors, John Smith Cask and Wadworth 6X (£3.05/pint), the last rather indifferently kept, though it was fine on a subsequent visit, as was the Deuchars. In May 2010, a half of Symonds cider was £2. They also have the basic lagers, along with Budvar and Budvar Dark and a nifty 'half and half' tap as well to mix the two together.

As of September 2008, lunch is served noon-2pm Monday to Friday. In the evening, they only have standard bar snacks as well as a few varieties of Pukka Pies.

Accessibility: A step up to get in. Not sure about the toilets.
