Comment added by Dave: Seems as if the pub has had a bit of a refurb, i hadn't been in for a while the dropped by for a pint (they had Darkstar hophead & Adnams broadside on) and its completely changed. It's looking lovely, even got a piano in. Also a good selection of bottle beer and some interesting stuff on draft. Well worth popping by.

Sadly the smoking area is no more though.

Pub near King's Cross/Bloomsbury with a remarkably good smoking area.

Rowley Birkin QC visited in late-January/early-February 2008. I thought the smoking area was an internal room at first, but on wondering why they had decking indoors I realised it's a well-disguised patio. There are benches, ashtrays, heating, lighting, and the "ceiling" is actually an awning stretched to virtually meet the walls. One wonders if it is even legal.

Adnams Bitter (not Broadside) £2.70 - was OK.

Food served Monday to Friday (noon-3pm and 5pm-9pm). Burger and chips are £5, plus there's a variety of other food: fish and chips, pizza, chicken tikka masala, etc.

Beware of darts if male or a smoker.
