Prior to the change of management, it was a fairly standard real ale pub. It still has some form of real ale, but now does food and wine as well; according to the Dos Hermanos review linked below, the head chef is Trish Hilferty, who's previously worked at the [[Eagle, EC1R 3AL|Eagle]] in [[Locale Clerkenwell|Clerkenwell]] and the [[Anchor And Hope, SE1 8LP|Anchor and Hope]] in [[Locale Borough|Borough]], among other places, so it's probably pretty good food too. |
When [[bob]] visited prior to the change of management, on a Thursday evening in September 2009, there were several people drinking outside and a few inside. Landlord (£3.15 a pint, £1.60 a half) was available, but Pedigree and Sussex Best were off. The kitchen was closed and no indication was given that this was unusual. |
