    I think it's trying to be a Ruin Bar, which is some kind of bar like a dive bar or squat bar or whatever, popular in Budapest. I hope it does well but it's a really sh*tty part of town.

    Popped in. Interior too good to be a dive bar really. Food prices are off the scale

    Both. Normal taps you'd expect and about 8 craft

    So a theme pub then

    A hipster hangout

    Like the way Irish pubs are exported the world over

    Doubt it. Camden Exchange tends to get more of the young and moneyed set. I'd imagine that's what they're going for with this one too.

    It's in the wrong part of town for that then.

    Is it craft or fraft?

    Hophouse and a few different smithwick's, or Kinnegar and 8 Degrees?

    Longstones platters were always better value.

    Both. I was in last night with work and there were a couple of guys drinking guinness, a couple drinking punk, some Fran Well Rebel Red. On the taps I think I noticed Cute Hoor and Scraggy Bay but not 100% certain. In cans they had some White Hag and Rascalls (as well as others).

    Again, just thinking of Camden Exchange, they have a mix of macro and micro, Irish and imported. Beers from Four Corners (Brewdog, Brooklyn, Beavertown, Wicklow Wolf) alongside ones from Grand Cru (Sierra Nevada, Founders, White Hag, Kinnegar). Plenty of choice, if you have the money for it.

    Far from craft, it's a cynical attempt by Heineken to get into the market, and it's bloody manky.
