please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
The building has been demolished and is currently a pile of rubble with a pair of mechanical diggers on site. I've no idea what it will be if/when rebuilt.

This place was boarded up when I went past on Friday afternoon.
|
Now reverted to original name of Tavistock Arms. Wants to be a proper pub again. No real ale though. Main courses mostly under a tenner (apart from steak). Live music & DJs promised in future.
|
Yawn, yet another name change - Crescent House - at least the fifth.

Visited this Bar on Sat 6th....What a night, the DJ and the live percussionist were incredible, then to top it off a live saxaphone player joined in. The drinks were fairly priced and a decent range were available. If every Saturday night is like this, then i will advise anyone to pay this rampaging place a visit if only to check out the live percussionist(awesome).

I think you'll find it's called THE MOTHER BLACKCAP. The name comes from the name of the pub in Withnail and I (this pub, which was the Frog & Firkin at the time, b4 that the Tavistock Arms, if my beer adddled memory serves me correctly). Run by CARA (campaign AGAINST real ale), pricey Guinness or lagers then but the music night on Thursdays is worth a look. My mate Jas sez that barmaid Sabina is a babe.

This pub has changed it's name to The Mother White Cap. I would have given Babushka and 8 out of 10, but the new pub only rates a 2 if that. No longer plays cool music and they got rid of all the candle wax and most of the vodka.

this pub was featured in the cult film withnail and i, set in camden.
