Small immaculate theatre pub just behind Sadler's Wells.
Historic Interest
ex Enterprise Inns
Two star - A pub interior of very special national historic interest
Listed status: Not listed
Built 1960 by Courage Brewery the only change is the removal of the wall that separated the public bar and the lounge in the late 1980s; the original fittings remain.
The U-shaped single room retains the original counter on the left made of brick and painted black, and with a small wooden shelf below the bar counter top presumably as somewhere for customers at the bar to place their belongings. The bar back of glass shelves is typical of the 1960s. The horizontal wood panelling on the rear left wall is good quality, and the walls elsewhere throughout the pub have floor to ceiling ply panelling. The bar counter on the right is of wood with sections of button leatherette panels on the front, and also a shelf like the one on the left. On the right of the room there's a brick fireplace painted black and sitting on a solid plinth also painted black and with a brick facing similar in design to the front of the bar counter on the left. The fixed seating looks original.
