Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Frontier
Trendy new café and bar bar at street level, with an eclectic mix of furniture and décor, and the associated Vinyl Frontier record shop, live music lounge and wholly exposed casks / pumps downstairs. Mostly interesting selection of mostly crafty beers from ten keg taps (e.g. my Crafty Devil's Lush, £6.00, schooner) plus a Guinness font.

Strongers . left this review about The Vinyl Frontier
The Vinyl Frontier is a Coffee , Craft Beer and Cocktail Bar plus Record shop, in that order. Bare board floor throughout, there is seating in the large front bay windows either side of the central front entrance. The wooden serving counter found mid-way up the right-hand wall supports Camden Hells, Beer Rife Brewing’s Flamingo Lingo, Crafty Devil Brewing’s Ale House Rock, Abyss Brewery’s Gonzo and Guinness. There’s no real ale, so as I have a really big nose I decided to have a pint of Gonzo, which I really liked. However, it was very pricey coming in at £8.30 for a pint and a can of coke. This is a café so the food stretches to sausage rolls, both meat and vegan, as well as flapjacks etc. At the rear is a mix of seating in an open plan area that had been commandeered by the local Free Palestine protesters who were enjoying a tea and coffee break. There were about 15 people on here during my recent Saturday afternoon visit, and I was the only one that was drinking beer. I noted a retro arcade table, which was turned off, but there was some obscure background music playing. I didn’t see any records for sale or on display, maybe there’s another area of this bar that I didn’t visit. It’s always nice to visit a new bar, but I’m not sure that I’ll be rushing back anytime soon.
