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 - MGA4.00AcceptableChosen 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.
