Historical version 11 of Butchers Hook And Cleaver, EC1A 9DY (view current version)

Fuller's pub near Smithfield Market and the [Museum of London]?. The interior is quite interesting (photo), with frosted glass screens and a wrought-iron spiral staircase. The ladies' loos have unusual sinks.

Kake and doop visited late on a Wednesday evening, a little after 10pm. A pint of Discovery and a pint of Pride came to £6. The lights were dim, and there were candles on the tables. Bizarrely, the tables were laid with knives and forks and napkins, and the staff relaid one of the tables while we were there. Maybe they were going to start serving food very very early the next morning?

Comment added by her_welshness: Hmmm...not enough bar staff to serve you. It's OK!
