London - Pubs & Bars - Bars
St. Christorpher's Inn recently had a bit of a renovation, which has really improved décor of the place, although in my opinion it doesn't really have much character. The pool table is gone, and they seem to be focusing much more on food and gourmet beers. They play music, but it's not too loud so is a good place to go if you want a conversation.
The pub consists of a ground floor, with a large TV at the front showing sports. Towards the back is a large seating area were most people go to eat at lunch or dinner. In the basement it has a slightly plusher décor, with leather sofas and mood lighting. When I've been here in the evening though there rarely seems to be anyone down in the basement. They also put tables out on the side access road on the right hand side of the pub so you can sit outside and have a drink during the summer months - although it's not the most attractive area. It is also a hostel, but I've not used it so can't comment on what it's like.
The menu consists of platters to share, sandwiches, soup, very filling burgers, grilled steaks, and a large range of other mains.
The drinks menu includes 5 hand pulled real ales, 7 ciders and porters, about 15 types of wine, plus 30 bottled beers from around the world. On my last visit it took a while for the food to arrive, but the staff apologised and gave me friend a free drink.
