[[Kake]], [[Elvum]], [[Martin]], [[Bob]], and Richard visited on a Thursday evening in November. Beers available were Doom Bar (£2.70/pint), Black Sheep (£2.70/pint), London Pride (£2.80/pint), TEA, and Bombardier (£2.70/pint). The Doom Bar ran out shortly after we got there but at least they turned the thing round. |

The downstairs part has a main bar area with tables around the edges as well as standing room, plus a few little hideaway areas, one of which has a leather sofa and armchairs and an open fire (was it real or fake?) We saw a sign saying there was more seating upstairs, but we didn't check whether that part was open. |

The music was just on the right side of "too loud" (though only just). |

We think evening food probably starts around 6pm (they came round and put menus on the tables at 5:45pm on the Thursday of our visit). |

We started with a meat platter (£11) <small>[http://flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/2079734879/ photo]</small> to share; this had salami, parma ham, chicken liver pate, hummous, artichoke hearts, olives, gherkins, pickled onions, and grilled flatbread (apparently there was supposed to be chorizo too - did anyone notice it?) and was demolished pretty quickly by the five of us - it would have made a generous starter for two or three people though. There's also a vegetarian platter available at £9.75; we didn't try it, but the menu listed hummous, artichoke hearts, grilled asparagus, spring rolls with sweet chilli sauce, olives, and grilled flatbread. |

[[Elvum]] ordered a burger (£9.25, served with salad and chips) and they asked him how he wanted it cooked - this is a good sign, although it did come medium rather than rare as requested. The chips were good, obviously hand-cut as described on the menu; though they were pre-salted, which some people don't like. The salad wasn't dressed. The presentation of this dish was interesting - on a small wooden chopping board <small>[http://flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/2079774355/ photo]</small>. |
