No prizes for guessing the theme of this pub - sacre bleu! c'est Canada! You don't have to drink Molson, watch the ice hockey or wear a checked shirt, to come here, but if you haven't got an interest in things Canadian, you'll naturally find yourself in the minority here. The staff are attentive (if not necessarily Canadian), though service can be little slow when it's crowded - which is quite often. There are untypical beers on offer - particularly the Sleeman's Honey Brown Lager on tap and now IPA; wines and spirits are also on offer. It's one of those Covent Garden fixtures that's pretty much unchanged over the years.
