This is one of the many pubs in Hammersmith catering for the Irish community and it's pretty much what you might expect. Some ould wrecks at the bar, a sniff of the community centre about the place, plenty of Irish booze and pictures of Armagh's Sam Maguire-winning side. There did seem to be a Northern twang to many of the accents at the bar, so if you want a taste of Portadown in London, this might be yer man. There's plenty of room for dancing or fighting here, but the feature that caught our eye was the Tardis-like toilets. People kept walking in to the apparently tiny gents and then vanishing. Most odd. Perhaps we'd had too much to drink by this point.
