Drury Lane
Nice little Dutch place on Drury lane, with a good selection of bar snacks - cheeses, charcutries, mezze, chips etc. Fairly comfy, with table service (but not the fastest) and they open at 9am! They have a nice range of beers, but enough pleasantries,
Does their bloody mary cut the mustard...
In a word, No.
For £5.95 you get something that we marked a 3/10. They use a decent enough tomato juice, but then they go overkill with the lemon and tobasco (and don't use any worcester sauce, yes i know - sacrilege) There is some celery salt and black pepper involved, and as it goes on it does get a bit easier to drink. But it is massively acidic (not good on a delicate stomach) and firey as hell, my lips were still burning despite killing the taste of the bloody mary with a nice Applebocq beer.
Go here for the beer and the comfort food by all means, but not for their bloody mary attempt.
