AaronJanuary 17, 2015A simple, laidback, friendly pub in an unusual and convenient location. You won't get many tourists here. The beers are fantastic. Lots of American oddities mixed in.
Like A Local GuideFebruary 6, 2015This little pub is truly unique, stocking only craft breweries. Grab a pint and something delicious from the kitchen, then head outside and enjoy the buzzing evening atmosphere of Sicilian Avenue. Read more
Simon EarlAugust 2, 2017The BitBurger (I know I've spelt it incorrectly!) was very tasty and the staff welcoming....they know their beer here ! Recommended for any real ale etc aficionados !!
Sam MMarch 2, 2014Top quality beer and a great range. Friendly staff good for recommendations. Gets very crowded, but good for people watching whilst sitting by the windows.
Andrew Fawcett-WolfMarch 20, 2014Even when quiet it takes longer than it should to be served. Great choice of beer and simple but whole hearty good grub.
Great little pub in Holborn - you can use the outside space in Sicilian Ave. When it's busy it can be very loud inside.
Good range of craft beers. Skip the crowded weekend with the corporate stiffs and come for a quiet mid week pint of winsauce.
Cyndie Da RochaApril 2, 2016Funny name for a pub proposing a wide choice on beers. Food is also very good for a pub. Good location and prices.
Alison RocheNovember 20, 2016Great craft beers and the chorizo pizza is fab! Go a bit later to avoid the after work crowds.
dtmcoAugust 7, 2015Love the Whippet, great beer and good food. Always try to have an excuse to go in if I'm in the area.
Jason O'LearyMarch 7, 2015Lovely pub, get here early on a Friday as the pub fills up quickly! WiFi password is up on blackboard.
The Mahrs Weizen currently being served is delicious, particularly in hot weather. Has a sort of lemon sherbet taste to it.- Simon EarlAugust 2, 2017If you fancy an education in beer, then this is the place you MUST visit !! Tasting Menu available
Aisha TaylorAugust 15, 2013This place fills up fast for happy hour (do they have HH in the UK?). Super crowded by 5:30. They do take reservations.
The Edible FranNovember 16, 2018Always good beers and friendly staff. Great location and good for a quiet afternoon drink.
Ged CarrollOctober 8, 2015Great light and airy lunch time pub with good basic food. Very light and airy for a pub
Mat AJuly 8, 2015Great selection of beers and ales. Buffalo wings were perfectly cooked and seasoned.
Great wheat beer on tap. We didn't get any food but their pizzas looked delicious.- Bristol Beer Milk Stout is currently being served, a must try for all fans of dark beer.
Lidia VorontsovaJune 3, 20152 pints for 7 pounds in a very central location? i'm sold. try the tropical IPA if you get the chance.
Jonathan DavisMarch 11, 2016Their cool about the WiFi. Centrally located too - a good pit stop before later plans take hold.
Fine selection of beers and great pizza - go large if you're real hungry.
Priya ChandranJuly 12, 2014The house ciders are great. But they usually don't have much left towards the end of evening.
Blaise Grimes-ViortAugust 16, 2014Cracking pizza. Sister pub to the Euston Tap so great selection of beers too.
JessicaMarch 5, 2017Good beer selection, but a bit grubby... and smelly. All high tables and stools too so don't expect a comfy style pub.
Matthew MuzerieMarch 4, 2014Chilled place, good beer choice and free wifi. What more could you want.
Mike McClellandFebruary 21, 2014Watch out for bag snatchers. We had a laptop bag stolen from under our table whilst sitting around it!
Does a unique selection of beers and food, a definite London recommendation
Bar staff aren't up to scratch yet but the food and beer are great. Have a swift pint of profanity.
Diepak KisoensinghJuly 30, 2013Black Isle porter takes a while to be poured... But it's worth the wait!
Matty HandMay 25, 2012Love to see a new pub offering real ale doing well. I had no idea it's been open a week!!
- More stouts please; beer list excellent but not enough dark stuff.
- Trying some Kolsch today, which is what lager is like when it tastes of something.
Liam BeadmanFebruary 22, 2015Not a proper pub-in a row of new build restaurants. Interesting beer selection though.
They do pizzas here now. Pizzas and pints. Jolly bar staff.
