William IV, N1

Very bland interior to this one room pub.4 handpumps but only one beer on a very average Harveys -Sussex best but there again does it get above average in other pubs.Very quiet on my visit but dj equipment set up in the corner so maybe gets busy later.

Plodded in like a drowned rat just before Xmas when trying to find the Wenlock without a map and needed a pints worth of splash-and-dash. A couple of decent ales on, Black Sheep was good, and served in a handled glass as well. They didn't look too put out when I asked where the Wenlock was either, so extra mark there. Inside was all boho-gentrification; white-painted wood, 30-watt bulb lighting and a particular kind of ‘distressed' look, probably added at great expense I imagine. Some nice glasswork along the pubs frontage and a few old oil portraits of long-dead Georgian nobodies along the walls. Looked like food was a high priority here, took a quick look at the menu which looked fairly reasonable in price. Not necessarily a place I’d rush to come back to but it was reasonable enough given the circumstances.
