A smart looking bar accessed via a long corridor. There was a minimal keg offering with the likes of Blue Moon and Neck Oil, I settled for a Staropramen. Behind the bar was a huge selection of spirits and it would seem Cocktails are the main thrust of the place.
It wasn't unpleasant here but it's not my thing.

Dating back to 1631 when it was the Royal Mail and rebuilt in its current form in 1879, once a branch of Grand Union and since 2013, a bar and restaurant called Hoxley & Porter.
Out front there's a very attractive bow window. You enter via a glass-walled corridor which runs a substantial length of the pub, opening out into a rather trendy and tastefully appointed though gloomy venue with a bar to the right side. The front is reserved for dining but the rear tables are for drinkers. There's a projector screen above the doors to the lavs which open directly into the bar area. Switzerland were ensuring that Brazil wasn't going to have it all its own way, of the few customers, I was the only one watching and this sort of entertainment does seem a bit incongruous in a place like this.
There was no real ale of course so I plumped for a half of the Lagunitas IPA which came in at a staggering £3.30 a half - pro rata, I think this is the most expensive beer I've ever purchased in Britain so there's no chance of a return visit.

Another dimly lit pub with no real ale worth mentioning. Would not return.
