Does what it says on the tin pretty formulaic “Irish Pub” interior as described below. Keg only selection.

Obviously an Irish bar, slightly more convincing than some and more Irish tat than many in Britain. Mainly the one big room with a counter down the right hand side, taller wooden tables in the middle and semi circular leather banquettes to the left. Loads of screens showing corporate advertising or sport including one on Gaelic football and the place is decorated with the usual football shirts, road signs and old household items. There’s a snug at one end but with a big hole in the front wall, this area has semicircular banquettes, screens and portraits of Irish literary giants. Three horseshoes serve a profusion of highly priced UK national kegs also including a couple from Stewarts and one from Innis & Gunn. Go down the hill to the Bow Bar is my advice.
