Advertised as a cocktails and lounge bar outside we are told “they are not ready yet” 9although later I find out that this is actually two venues rolled into one and we are seated in the restaurant area. Old people argue in the corner to slow Spanish music while others drink tea. [...]

The Abbey
A very vibrant pub set in this relatively quiet area of London, and it almost seems out of place. Perhaps it is better suited to the like of Soho but this pub comes with character and style. Only down the road from peachy-keen it clearly boasts the same clientele and with drinks to match. [...]
