This is a pub that I've seen many times from the main road, and only popped in by accident as it started to rain as I walked past with a couple of friends over from the USA. It's probably not a pub that I would choose in order to showcase London's best pubs, but as we had just been to the Olde Mitre and on the way to the Blackfriar I guess we stayed on the plus side regarding our pub visits.

Just the two ales on when I was in - Doom Bar and Proper Job, the latter being in good condition. The place hasn't changed since the description by the previous reviewer. I would add that a quick nose in the upstairs room showed that it looked more like a lounge for lounging rather than a bar for drinking; the small downstairs had just four tall tables with tall stools and a couple of normal tables and chairs; and I quite liked the Bass mirror, and lampshades on the window ledge featuring ladies arched backwards as supports. It's a bar with not a lot of character, but my pint of Proper Job was in fine nick.

A back street pub with fewer customers than some of the others at the time of my late afternoon/early evening crawl of the area. The bar counter is quite small, and gives the room the feel of a hotel bar in a run down seaside resort. The strange drapes, all pelmet and no curtains, above the slightly curved front window, are something to be seen, and on the walls I also observed two technical drawings of Tower Bridge and of the Elizabeth Tower of the Palace of Westminster, the latter being incorrectly labelled Big Ben. Three hand pumps offered Fullers London Pride, Shepherd Neame Spitfire and Timothy Taylor Landlord, typical of the mainstream beers to be seen in the pubs in this area. I went for the last named, which I thought was in good condition, though while I was drinking my half I observed a fresh barrel being pulled through, which says something about the throughput here (or about my taste buds, of course).

Just off the main drag. Quite a small bar (didn’t visit upstairs) serving 3 real ales.
