Randomness Guide to London Menu

A slightly shabby pub halfway between Aldgate East Station and Brick Lane, making it a good rendezvous before a curry. Of course, the Pride of Spitalfields is even handier for Brick Lane, and serves a better range of better-kept real ales, which may tempt you elsewhere. Traditional decor, with decorative cask ends, portraits of Churchill etc. A large chalk board proclaims the availability of Thai food from 11:30 until 22:00. There were three real ales on tap in November 2008, averagely kept. A pint of Spitfire cost £3.40.
