1 | Jonathan E.'s review is spot-on. I went here for a late lunch on a Sunday and couldn't resist ordering the lamb. I was expecting a hearty hunk of roast leg of lamb, as the menu mentioned the Sunday Roasts selection.

1 | I've only been here once and it was OK. If you're into the English pub scene, you would probably like it since everything is decently priced. However, a friend of mine tells me that they broke into her car on a Friday night, smashed the window and all, so I would be careful about what you leave in your vehicle. | en | 60 | english pub scene would probably like since everything decently priced however friend mine tells broke car friday night smashed window would careful leave vehicle | 24 |

3 | A perfect place to enjoy a cold pint with friends in a cozy pub without an over the top cheezy ye-olde-England theme.
