Visited here in the early 2000s and this was indeed a long thin gloomy boozer full of bewildered tourists. It can’t have been very nice because I recall me berating my friend for arranging to meet at such an awful place, us necking our drinks and leaving sharpish. What a shame though that it’s now a restaurant.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Green Man & French Horn
What a change; and although it remains a long and narrow space, the new glazed entranceway and bare brickwork has certainly brightened the place up. Mind you, it now operates almost as a French restaurant with all tables laid for dining, and with just a few stools along the side bar. No draught beer, and a smallish bottle of Coopers Original Pale Ale is a wince-inducing £4.50 (but at least served in a simple, but extremely light weight and thin-rimmed glass that really brought the flavour out).

Having seen that this place had re-opened, in a moment of reckless abandon the other day as I was passing, I decided to have a look inside. This is nothing like the narrow dark boozer that I used to know. It’s essentially a French restaurant, but when I was greeted at the door and said that I just wanted a drink I was pointed towards a stool at the bar. So, it just about qualifies as a pub, but to be honest I just wanted to test it out and see what it looked like now. It’s really not the sort of place to come if you just want a drink.
The only beer comes in bottles, advertised on a chalkboard behind the bar counter – Camden Hells Lager (quite good actually), some wheat beer (both £3.50), Coopers Pale Ale (£4.50), and something called Loirette for £5. The walls are mainly exposed brickwork; the floor’s parquet, and there are loads of odd pictures on the walls mainly featuring people with bottles and corks. I had a look at the menu, but couldn’t understand much of it as it was in a foreign language (French probably), but did establish that there were no pork pies, scratchings or anything like that on it.

Long thin pub, seating at the front, bar at the back. Sells real ale. If it is raining, they have a selection of umberellas behind the bar you can borrow.
