Rather gloomy place, I sat in the window to get the benefit of what little daylight there was on this gloomy day in London. My half of Harvey's Sussex Best had maybe caught the mood, or maybe my taste buds have moved on permanently from this type of best bitter. I gave it a rare (for me) NBSS 2. The other beer was Landlord, which I make a point of not drinking in London. There are better pubs around here. And better beers, too.

Decent enough pub close to the station. I prefer the Castle but if you have the time to do 2 pubs you may as well do both!

Rather dark, cavernous pub with numerous pillars making ita bit claustrophobic. With the road outside pedestrianised, this possibly accounts for the mass of people on the pavement if the weather is nice. Those of us of a certain age still find it strange voluntarily asking for a pint of Watneys, but that is one of several ales available and the condition seemed ok. Upstairs is a Thai restaurant with Thai food available alongside more conventional dishes in the pub. Tolerable to grab a pint on the way to the station opposite.
