Been in here once a week for the past month. Why this bar is in the Good Beer Guide is beyond me. Whichever cask beer I have tried has barely managed to to even qualify as average.
The staff are barely competent. Despite there usually being several of them, they are always tripping over each other and have no idea who is next to be served.
The Thai food is good though, even if the menu is a little limited, but this is a pub after all and not a restaurant.
If you like Thai food, don't mind poor service from the bar and are happy to drink anything other than cask beer, this might be the bar for you, otherwise look elsewhere, but be careful, service is not great in this area, full stop.

Lazy & disinterested staff. Don't bother trying to drink here if there are more than half a dozen people in the bar.

Parochial locals bar where they will serve the regulars, or people they recognise, first even though you are the only other person waiting and there are two bar staff on. I moved to the area recently (Behind High St Ken tube station, so a bit of a walk) and was looking for a local. This most certainly is not going to be it. Hopefully this one will follow the 15 or so other bars a week that are calling last orders for the final time.
