Essentially the staff bar of the massive building site opposite, this wouldn't be high on the list of most folks ideal pubs. However, it does a job, serving food and drink to the early hours (open every night except Sunday till 2 am) for those in the area. It offers 3 sorts of telly: satellite, terrestrial and closed-circuit, as well as a pool table and a jukebox (which is free some nights), and a DJ is 'in the house' throughout the week too. It's had an overhaul recently, with the actual bar and food serving area all well-stocked. However, none of this makes up for the fact that this is a rather scary place, and not one you'd want to stumble into for a lock-in at the weekend (not that we know that such a practise takes place here).
