Simmons, Soho, W1

Reportedly in danger of closure, but the sign on the pavement outside states "Open as usual (but better)". Inside, the ominous words "Sorry folks cash only" are written behind the bar, and it is difficult to know if the place is being run down or whether new people have just taken it over. Some comfortable seating, but very dark and no real ale. (NB - Review dates from the time when it was still a pub called the Midas Touch.)
