Nicely laid out inside, looks like there is room downstairs, but quiet enough at street level & nice raised tables on the roadside window. Good choice and quality of beers and not too pricey. All round a good pub

Located in the lee of a gherkin-shaped building which looms over the street this bar is located in, little has changed from previous, pre-Covid reviews. Still with 18 x keg taps and 9 x cask pumps, my visit saw five of the latter in action offering Abbeydale Pilgrim (a pumpkin-spiced ale), Monday Phantasm of the Hopera (an NEIPA), Siren Memento (a best bitter) and Vocation Naughty & Nice (a caramel cookie & chocolate stout). A place that slowly filled up with City types, the cask range wowed me, but eventually disappointed; each beer deteriorating towards the bottom half of each pint (I didn't try the Siren). Maybe most were on the keg, but my initial 'kid-in-a-sweet-shop' energy deflated to a 'cask-in-case-anyone-asks-for-it' feeling.

Craft Beer Co outlet, tucked away in the lee of the Gherkin as mentioned below, so few guesses as to who makes up a slab of the clientele and it was rammed on a weekday post-work. Relatively small inside, a single room with nice parquet flooring and a squared brass effect ceiling, alongside exposed brick and light painted wood panelling walls. Apparently there’s some extra seating downstairs but in the battery hen space I had for myself I didn’t have the ability to note it. Nine pumps with six on skewed towards Heavy Industry. My HI Red wasn't a particularly brilliant brew and wasn’t overly inspiring in the glass either (NBSS 2.5). A good barman serving who was massively overworked but correctly acknowledged when I was next. I’d be willing to give it another go, maybe on a weekend or mid-afternoon instead as I suspect I’d be a bit more effusive. 6.5
