Quinno _ left this review about Fairfax Club
Not much to add to the description below, bar the fact that me and another loiterer who were waiting outside on the assumption the advance party would be turfed out were beckoned in by a Harry Redknapp-esque character who was sat in a burgundy coloured Merc outside. An old fashioned place which is comfortably shabby and friendly. One single cask ale – GK Abbot – which was decent (NBSS 3). An oddity, but useful to know it exists.

Will Larter left this review about Fairfax Club
Still described as a private club, but when we, five complete strangers, walked in on a Wednesday afternoon we were made very welcome and served without question. My companions who went for the Abbot were pleased with it. I went for a bit of a random choice from among the kegs, but my half of Greene King IPA 3.4% was better than many examples of that beer I've had from hand pumps - a little cold, but pretty good. All the beer dispensers had little labels stuck on with blue tack - my GK was £4.20/pint. We had a good time here, especially after the guy on the next table who hadn't showered for a week left; otherwise it was very pleasant. I was amused by the club's "coat of arms", which our very friendly and welcoming server told us was made for them by Greene King (not that it's a tied house, but...). It reads "camera principis", which I translated for my drinking companions as CAMRA rules, and they almost believed me.
