'Hops & Chops, Cuvées and Duvets' is an apt slogan for this classily re-invented pub-with-rooms. The building itself - a listed 200-year-old porters' drop-in near Smithfield Market - has been impressively transformed, with mahogany doors, etched glass and a fine pewter bar serving as the centrepiece.
The kitchen works to a short, sharp menu of smart British pub food, which trawls its way through mussels cooked in Aspall cider, various savouries on toast (duck egg mayonnaise, potted salmon) and a few robust main courses ranging from ham hock with colcannon mash and parsley sauce to traditional fish pie.
