No cask. Keg range of Guinness, Moretti, Asahi, Neck Oil, Madri, Amstel, Inch’s, Brooklyn Pilsner, Brixton Reliance Pale Ale, Roadie, Jubel Peach.

Large multi activity games bar, with loads of screens showing sport also. Mini golf is on ground floor. Down the stairs to the vast array of activities. To the left of the foot of the stairs is a large rectangle with bar counter on the right-hand side of the front part. Darts, table tennis, and pool are the games here and there are lots of tall table and tall stool seating. To the right of the foot of the stairs is another large rectangle with the bar counter opposite the back wall opposite the entrance to the space. There are some tall tables and tall stools in front of the bar and to the right-hand end of the bar and a row of semi-circular booth tables down the middle with a long leather banquette along the left-hand wall serving a row of small tables. Darts and pool tables in here also. There is a corridor that joins both bar areas that has some tall tables if you fancy a table away from the bar and games and opposite the open kitchen. Original stone flooring down here and lots of modern metal ducting on the original brick arched ceiling. Undoubtedly this place will do well and is the sibling of the venue in Stratford E20, but this place has a lot more potential. Hope it has better longevity than the German beer venue here until summer 2024!
