picture of Hobgoblin (ex-The Jay Cubed)10.20pm, Friday night. If you like bars sparsely filled with drunk girls singing along to songs - karaoke-style - and dancing around, this place is for you. For us, there weren't enough people to create any sort of atmosphere, while the volume of the caterwauling from would-be X-factor first round rejects made it unsuitable for having a normal drink. There's a late licence (until 2am) and perhaps it picks up later, or at other times of the week, but from our brief visit we'd recommend giving it a miss. If you want a proper pub the Agricultural up the road is a better bet, while the Angel area isn't short of good, lively bars either.
