Pub in Walthamstow, with a theatre upstairs. It serves real ale, and it's in the Good Beer Guide.
It has a fairly traditional interior, with the usual patterned carpet on the floor. Some of the seating is up on daises, nicely partitioned off with wood panelling. Wines are chalked up on a blackboard behind the bar, and a small collection of flyers at one end of the bar advertises local, arty, and FairTrade concerns. Wrought-iron lamps hang from the high ceiling. There's a pool table in a large seating-free space at the back.
Kake visited on a Monday afternoon in October 2009. Four of the six handpumps were on, offering Brodies Red (£1.50/half), Brodies IPA, Adnams Explorer, and Thatchers Heritage (the first two of these are brewed just down the road at the Sweet William).
There were about half a dozen other customers in throughout my visit (roughly 5pm-6pm). There was no music playing, and conversation was quite subdued.
They don't seem to do any kind of food.
A flyer seen in October 2009 advertised live jazz on the first and third Thursday of the month, starting at 8pm with entry costing £5. It wasn't clear whether this happens in the main part of the pub or upstairs.
Accessibility: Level access via the right-hand door, but to get to the ladies' you need to go up two steps and down another two.
