Website.

The pub is found in City, Central London, EC2R 8EJ.

Was a cavernous Wetherspoon in modern office building at No.1 Poultry, a small ground floor level bar and a much bigger lower level. Closed in May 2017 for complete redevelopment of the building. Re-opened late 2019 with new name and as a crazy golf concept.

We have visited this pub 69 times, seen 109 different beers and tried 86 of them.
