Moby Duck left this review about Duke of Cambridge
A full blown Gastro-pub, a large main room with appalling acoustics, it was full on babble, there is also an extended seating area beyond the kitchen but I didn't venture there. There seemed to be a meet and greet at the door and table service in operation but I walked straight through and ordered at the bar unchallenged. Beers on were Purity UBU and Mad Goose plus a house bitter the name of which now escapes me, a few craft keg also on offer and I had an Anspach & Hobday London Black, I was the only customer drinking without dining and felt a little conscious of that fact but I was left to get on with it unhindered by the staff with a thank you as I left. Worth a pint but it wouldn't be a regular watering hole.

Trendy eating house place which feels more like a kitchen than a pub inside but does at least have some nicely-kept ales: on this visit Purity Ubu and Gold. As stated in previous reviews, big on the organics.

A corner pub best know for it's Soil Association accreditation and it's commitment to organic produce.The exterior map shows all their food suppliers.The interior has been totally stripped out,and has ranks of bench seating rather like a refectory.The bar is along the far wall from the apex entrance and has 4 handpumps offering on my trip St Peters Organic Ale,Purity UBU,ELB Brakeman and Three Sods BoHo Bitter(too warm,which is a problem I've had in here before so maybe there a cellar cooling issue.)
It's lively and principally a dining venue although there is a drinking shelf near the entrance if you dont want to take up a position on a long bench .However coming in here just to drink is fine,expect neighbours to be eating.I got into a chance conversation with some friendly locals,which led to more pub information and research.However there are better pubs nearby for real ale.
