Irish looking place on the outside, Guinness is the only Irish thing in the place and maybe the signage. A long place, L shaped with a straight counter on the back wall, T-Bars and solos along the length which is split in two by a pillar from a residual wall. Unsurprisingly the beer range is standard UK kegs, mostly Heinekin brands. Woody decor of board floors and tongue & groove walls with cream plaster or anaglypta above, cream coffered ceiling too so once it was a more interesting pub. Screens and piped music, didn’t see the machines but they must be there. Minimum card spend is £3. Another place popular with girls.
