The Penderel's Oak, Holborn

Was open after 11 so we reluctantly ventured in. I had forgotten just how awful spoons pubs are. It looks like a service station canteen from the 1980's. The only redeeming feature and i mean only, was the fact it had a few decent ales on. Bright carpet, fruit machines, posters with photos of their nasty food offerings. Just a big corporate profit machine. Unbearable.

The Flask, Highgate

Nice old pub although �3.50 for a pint of three point something session bitter, bit steep innit?
Food is fine (for a managed pub) better that when it was owned by M&B, although that's not saying much.
