    One of the smallest Sam Smiths pubs I've been in, but a nice feel to it all the same. Remember to duck or tell them to stop if going to the loo when Darts is on.

    Good meeting point for events and meetups. Function rooms upstairs including a "living room" called the snug. Standard Sam Smith booze options.

    Super cute Sam Smiths with expected levels of cramped small bars. Upstairs has two rooms that were a bit quieter. Damn, why did I tell you that?

    Sam Smiths pub (so SUPER cheap) 60 seconds from TottCrtRd Tube. Quiet and clean, just been refurbished. Good meeting point/hide away from shoppers.

    Cool small pub - like a maze - nice pub garden but closes 5:15 every day. They have big selection of their own brands

    Good meeting point, though small and can be crowded, and make sure you specify which bar - there are two with two separate doors.

    I like the garden inside, pretty calm in comparison

    Love the Sam Smiths Beer, but stay away from the lightsabre (Pure Brewed), its loopy juice

    Overly priced anything if you don't drink beer, and it's like being stuck in a random toilet cubicle of the Royal Albert hall.
