No cask. Keg offering of Asahi, Peroni, Pilsner Urquell, Camden Pale Ale, Tiny Rebel Clwb Tropica, Mahou, Tiny Rebel Rebel IPA, Camden Hells, Camden Stout and a Kopparberg cider.

This is another glass fronted bar on City Rd. Quite quiet on my mid evening visit on a Wednesday, have passed later in the week previously where it has been heaving. It is a bare boarded venue with the bar counter, a tiled front affair, mid venue on the left-hand wall. Seating is via some low armchairs in the front to the left of the entrance and some fitted seating around the right-hand side of the entrance and along the initial part of the right-hand wall. Thereafter a few tall tables and tall stools down the right-hand side. In the back there is a good part of the floor space turned over to a DJ booth and a live music stage, not utilised on my visit. The soundtrack was sensationally cool, and I really enjoyed my almost private experience of this venue. This is a really good bar and the lady manning it on my visit was an excellent host.
