[[Kake]], [[Ewan]], [[Laura]], and Les visited on a Monday evening in January 2010. It was pretty quiet, though not empty, when we arrived around 5:30pm — unsurprising given it was early in both the week and the year (when [[bob]] visited on a Friday night in March 2007 it was rather crowded).

I had a decent enough pint of Pride here one Friday night. The pub was rather crowded though. --[[bob]]

Ales available on this visit were Moorhouse Black Cat (£2.90/pint), Twickenham Sundancer, Whitstable East India Pale Ale, Oxfordshire Ales Pride Of Oxford, and London Pride (quite a good number, given the quiet time of year). Those we tried were fresh and tasty. We also noted they have Sam Smith's wheat beer and Sam Smith's cider — unusual to see these outside an actual [[Category Samuel Smith's|Sam Smith's pub]].

Lunchtime food appears to be hot and cold sandwiches, jacket potatoes, etc. Evening food is served between 5pm and 9pm, and comprises pizzas (£6), wedges, soup, and chips. We had a bowl of chips (£2) which arrived very quickly and were quite good; thin, crispy, and not greasy.

A sign seen in January 2010 warned that there's a minimum spend of £10 on credit/debit cards.

Accessibility: One step up to get in. As mentioned above, the pub is split-level, with two steps between the front and back parts. There are bars and seating on each level. The ladies' toilet is on the lower level and the gents' is on the upper level.
