Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Cavendish
High-end bar / restaurant with semi-modern décor masquerading as a corner pub. Full of staff, but annoyingly so, with table service only nowadays (because the barstools have been removed since my previous visit in 2015). Also has some patio tables out on the pavement on both sides. Two banks of four anonymous shiny keg taps and no details given on the drinks menus either. From the limited information given verbally, these included three from Harbour - Daymer Pale Ale (which turned out to cost £8.55 with the "discretionary" 12.5% service charge), Arctic IPA and its lager. I was expecting sky-high prices, but even so...

One room with bar to the left. No hand pumps and the keg taps were hard to read. Clearly a pub for illiterates. Upstairs dining room.

Renamed the Cavendish in 2014, this was originally the Duke of York and undoubtedly improved for having at one time being owned by Samuel Smith’s. Minus the aforementioned table service, this is really more of a made-over brasserie/bistro rather than pub with the all-fashionable square section tubular steel bar back, some bare brick walls and otherwise contemporary paint hues. There’s a herringbone parquet floor, fairly conventional furniture and dining upstairs. ‘Bathrooms’ are downstairs – no they aren’t as a bathroom requires the presence of a bath; no bath, no bathroom; muted music played and I didn’t spot a TV.
The place has a cigar selection, where a single Cohiba Siglo IV costs a very reasonable £27.60, minus the fine for smoking it indoors of course.
Ales? None. Just a large array of anonymous chrome founts. I asked for a half of lager and I’ve no idea what I got – there isn’t even a drinks menu on the wall. The bill for my half of fizz arrived on a silver platter with a demand for £2.75 which I guess is the cheapest ‘house’ lager.
Nope, I won’t be returning.
