Visited for lunch and though the space is tight the food more than makes up for it. Great selection of beers and the lamb burger is fantastic.

The sharply tailored bar staff are a nice touch. And the raised seating area with one table is a great place to spend an evening. Otherwise, the place is way too crowded for its own good.

Nice old tavern with an interesting history. Large dining downstairs and a lovely nook to hide out in in the street bar .

Really liked that place. The atmosphere was brilliant and also the gentlemen on the bar section was very friendly . Hope to get back soon.
