It was quite full, mostly of different brays[0] of although we had no
problem finding a table for 4 and later a sofa for 6 since people only
seemed to stay for one pint. This is a moot point though because the
manager promised to reserve seating but I thought I'd mention it.
They had music playing although it was fairly unobtrusive. I don't think
they had music palyign the first time.
$housemate said that beer was quite expensive (3.80 for a Hoegaarden)
although I don't remember it being that expensive the first time I went
there. A 4 pint jug of Heineken Export was 10 quid.
Paul Mison prefered to sit inside. There was space outside over looking
the riever but he felt it would be too sunny and then the beer terrace
round the back would be more amenable to most mongers. There's a lovely
view across the river though.
The gate by the pub which leads down to the shore is unlocked. We walked
down the beach for a few hundred meters and popped up by the Stanhope
Arms next to the Tate Modern. The view along the river was fantastic. I
remembered why I like living in London (I had previously forgot it
because of delays on the JLE due to "passenger action")
What did the rest of you(he says gesticulating vaguely in the direction
of the other people who turned up) think?
