picture of Speaker
Despite the Speaker's proximity to Parliament, Civil Service HQs and Channel 4's offices, this is a cosy little pub ideal for a few jars on a dark night. It has the feel of a friendly local, mostly due to the cheery landlady who treats everyone as if she's been serving them for years. One of the best in the area, with an ever-changing range of ales, this one's certainly well worth hunting down. The only downside is the pub can get very busy at times (afterwork, towards the end of the week), although we suppose it just proves that a fervently traditional boozer such as this one can still rake in the customers.
