More akin to an upmarket Spoons, a large open-plan interior with a ‘glass and lights’ staircase up to a second floor. There's also a fully illuminated dead tree for the oddballs. Elsewhere it’s copper fittings, metro tiles and so on - it's actually not bad (tree excepted). Sadly, even by H&W’s historically dismal house standards it was a ‘mare at the bar. Three of their cask were clipped, however my supposed Tanglefoot clearly wasn't (not the barmaid's fault as it got poured from the correctly labelled pump). What I ended-up with was a light blonde coloured aspiratored mess (NBSS 1.5). Why are H&W so bad at serving their own beer in their own pubs? Do they have no pride? If run properly, this could be a destination rather than an upmarket curio.

As described by others, below, if this is supposed to be H&W’s flagship, the fleet has already sunk. Expensive and impersonal, the young female staff were functional but unengaging, the other clients were a bunch of entitled tourists and the muzak was much too loud. Only Fursty Ferret and Badger Bitter were on tap, the former in poor condition. Given the number of better pubs nearby this one isn’t worth the bother.

I too found the food expensive for what is offered and the staff a little surly. I don't recognise David Robinsons description of a "traditional pub area" on the ground floor, not like any pub I've ever been in, warehouse with sofas and some bookshelves and a faux shop, don't know why. The whole place on the night i went seemed to be full of estate agents and office types, for a drink with "friends" I suggest elswhere, for a central venue with colleagues or student mates it will do. Low score when one rates ambiance, food, drink and whether you want to come back and be as anonymous as the first time.
