Off Broadway, E8

L-shaped room with the bar to the left. Selection of craft ales - rest keg.

L shaped bar with basement club.Small but nice with lots of stools at the bar.Nice mellow jazz on the sound system.Friendly barmaid and a warm feel to the place although I was the only customer.Iwas here for the beer and 3 keg beers on 2 from Deviant and Dandy and one from 40FT brewery.(both local breweries).

An "American style" craft bar, I was drawn into this place seeing how busy it looked and hearing the sound of live music over the babble of the busy marketplace directly outside. It's a small L shaped bar purposely basic in its appearance ,wooden floor with bench seating around the walls with a few tables and stools.There was a Bluesy rock trio playing at one end of the pub and they were pretty good.There is no cask beer here but three or four craft taps and a more extensive range of bottles,all displayed on a chalkboard without the prices marked up ,I soon found out why , it's hellishly expensive in here,I opted for a half of Weird Beard Mariana Trench, It was one of my best beers of the week but costing£3.00,I justified this to myself in that for slightly more than the cost of a supermarket sandwich I was getting an excellent beer with some very good live music for free,then I blew that excuse out of the water and decided to prolong my stay and have another Weird Beard beer, Fade to Black,this time in a bottle and was promptly relieved of a fiver. Anyhow I really enjoyed the bohemian vibe ,the music and the beer and yes I would return here, just not stay too long.
