Early-evening visit after a trip to Selfridges Food Hall. Not so busy that I could not find a table. I was a little underwhelmed with the beer choice. This pub is in the same ownership (Market Taverns) as the well-known Market Porter at Borough Market.

| Cottage - MGA | 4.00 | | Chosen on the advice of somebody at the bar when he spotted me dithering – I should probably have trusted my instincts and gone with the Harvey’s. This was an amber-coloured, sweetish pint. |

A few in sheltering from the rain. Lovely boozer just a stone's throw from the business of OXford STreet
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Marston's - Dragons Tale | 4.50 | | Pretty insipid brown ale with at least some hint of honey and hops |
| Marston's - Perfect Union | 3.80 | | Overwhelming sulphur on the nose, which morphed into brown water. No taste. At all. |
