Was it the joy of an away-day by the river that drew the critic to this East London boozer, which is hardly in its first flush of novelty? He concludes that this (already rather famous) establishment is “a very slick operation, if not a wilfully underpriced one, and just the sort of languid setting that makes you want to sit drinking until sundown”.
