coinckydinks, I suggested it because: - it was cheap (1.60 a pint), cheaper than CoY - central London - did food that was more than just chips and dips. I'd had the chicken and chips there which was fine so didn't know that the rest of the food was a bit naff, though we didn't try the snacky foods and 'traditional' pub grub. - had a big enough cellar, that didn't echo when people talked. I'm not a beer expert, in fact didn't even notice that it wasn't hand pulled (I appologies to the beer gurus out there). It wasn't perfect by any means, though personally I prefer it to the CoY. As has been mentioned it'd be nice to have a place with out side for the summer months. Leo
