Randomness Guide to London - Differences between Version 21 and Version 4 of Bar Nakoda, E1 1DE

Version 21 Version 4
== Line 0 == == Line 0 ==
Bar Nakoda was a pub/bar on Whitechapel Road, previously known as the Black Bull but not obviously different from the Black Bull incarnation. It closed in 2009, and became a restaurant called Bombay Grill <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/55935853@N00/5686581900/ photo]</small>.
Note - reopened as Bar Nokada. Still has real ale, but see the BitE comments below.

Good Beer Guide pub in Whitechapel. Serves a wide range of Nethergate beers all very well kept. The pub was very clean and tidy. The gents were a bit small but do have a fantastic view of the tube tracks at the back.

<div class="old_info">
Previously known as the Black Bull, this reopened as Bar Nakoda in late 2007.

The interior is fairly sparse, with a few banquette-enclosed tables to one side (seating maybe eight at each) and a few table/chair clusters scattered around the rest of the interior. Most of the other customers (the post-work crowd) during our December 2007 visit chose to ignore the seating in favour of standing around by the bar.

They serve [http://www.nethergate.co.uk/ Nethergate] real ales; on [[Kake]] and [[Bob]]'s visit in December 2007 they had Old Growler, Sussex County and Augustinian all at &pound;2.80/pint.

[[Howard]] visited in March 2008; staff and customers were both friendly. Sports/races on flat screen. I tried the Nethergate Azzaparrot, Nethergate Suffolk County and Nethergate IPA, all very good.

The beer is well-kept, in the opinion of both [[Bob]] and [[Howard]].

Didn't serve food at the time of our December 2007 visit, but they told us that after Christmas they planned to start serving an Indian buffet as well as an a la carte Indian menu. The buffet serving area had already been at least partially constructed by the time of that visit; not sure whether these plans have actually been realised though.

As of October 2008, there is still no Indian food of any sort.
