The Horseshoe

The Horseshoe is a pub situated in a very quiet part of Farringdon. From outside you have you really squint from afar to see there is indeed a pub tucked away here. Inside it is larger than it looks in this hidden cove of a place. The bar serves up a good ale on tap and the make-up of the crowd is local people enjoying each others company to the tune of up-beat dance music which doesn’t bust any ears drums for noise level. Its not over-crowded making it a good place to have a conversation. Cider tap was out but at least the ale quenched my thirst. Its ten quid for a round of 3 pints and a gin and Tonic and really the place is nothing spectacular but if the company is good it does the job. Not sure I could spend a full night in here, its a world away but that might be the problem. Navigating back to where all the action is means plodding through some very quiet back roads of Farringdon.

I would say go here if you feel like getting out the city for a local ale of an evening without leaving the comfort of the centre of town. 5/10.
