What a wonderful, horrible, incredible pub!

My friend Scott had his going-away dinner here, and he ordered this massive plate of greasiness and meatpie. We also staged a Last Supper photo, which I plan to share. Also, I have a fond memory here of my own last night in London, where I enjoyed one final Black Guinness.

The food and beer are unbearably cheap -- and it's full of regulars and fogies who are disheveled, missing teeth, and in need of a shave. A man comes around trying to sell cigarettes from a box...like it's candy or something...very cool for someone whose not British/used to that sort of thing.

I think they have lots of little gambling kiosks, and the bathroom smells horrible. As much of a dump as this place is, I loved it every time I came (which was weekly, when I lived in the area.)

The staff is pretty nice, but be sure to get there and order before the kitchen closes!
