No cask. Keg offering of Guinness, Neck Oil, Inch's, Cruz, Heineken & Moretti.
First of the bars you come to on getting through security. Check-in desk (what else would you expect given it is a bar at an airport), but not person’ed on my arrival late afternoon when the airport was still a bit quiet. Bare boarded apart from a tiled walkway in parts and the same tiled flooring in front of the bar counter, which is on the rear wall opposite the entrance. There are a few tall stools to sit at the bar. Seating along the left- and right-hand walls via mid blue leather banquettes serving regular tables. Otherwise, mixture of regular tables and tall tables plus some ledges served by tall stools that were handy for power sockets. Pleasant low level suspended lighting and screens showing adverts or departures. Background music and efficient table service, but drinks obviously priced for the highly captive audience.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Hithes
The smaller of the two airside bar / restaurants, with a brightly lit dining room and plainer general seating area by the counter. Limited selection of standard keg beers on tap, but with the Beavertown Neck Oil off I resorted to a Cruzcampo (£4.56 for a half an unavoidable table service). There are also a few bottled craft beers from Two Tribes in the fridge, but I wasn't going to pay £6.50 for 330 ml.
