Early evening and pleasantly busy a few tables free. A hubbub of conversation with soft background music playing made for a relaxed and welcoming stay.

Busy early evening we sat at the end of the left side table by the window. The spacious distance between the longitudinal tables would make interaction difficult compared to the usual more cramped micropub layout.

Great Heck - Trafalgar4.00ExcellentModerately bitter yet packed full of fruity NZ hopped flavours and aromas.

Mid afternoon just getting dark, friendly welcome a couple of other chaps in drinking lager. A modern feel to the place with clever use of lighting and the beer menu displayed on a large flat screen TV behind the bar.

Angels & Demons (now uses McCanns branding not its own) - Bombay Social3.80ExceptionalInstant 5* perfect in all departments, rich powerful almost APA flavours for such a low ABV hence stayed for another.

Why I don't like Bank Holidays. Had closed early at 8pm. At least, later, The Broken Drum and The Rusty Bucket kept to their Monday hours.

I was on a number 51 bus so it would have been rude not to break my journey here. This was my first visit to this very good pub, the landlord was very welcoming and enthusiastic. I was given tasters of a number of his products.

Evening visit until 10pm close although last orders must be placed by 9.30pm. The prominence of the fizz beer fonts on the bar counter unfortunately detracts from the real ale offering and at a minimum £1 pp premium. Like many new Micropub openings the sound was quite loud even with few in so soft furnishings, wall adornments plus sound baffles would be appreciated.
