  • Historic Interior

There used to be six handpumps but now there are 3 pouring cask beer - we think Doom Bar will be a regular and N1 perhaps as well. Changed name to Cellar Taps some time in 2022.

Occupies a large street-corner site with huge picture windows. The seating area wraps itself around a curved bar with the area's usual standard fittings of sofas, large mixed tables, wooden chairs, candles and subdued lighting. There is a large back room with an impressive lantern and, if anything, with an even more chilled-out air. Outside seating on street-side. The ceiling in the front bar area is an impressive reproduction, the tiling on the side entrance is original and quite outstanding and one wonders if the whole pub was once similarly decorated.

Plenty of board games to pass the time with.

Historic Interest

Local Listing:- dual timber frontage. Newington Green Road: five pilasters, two panelled stallrisers, two clear glass windows, double panelled/wire glass door, clear glass fanlight. Timber door, double clear glass fan and extract.

One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest

Listed status: Not listed

Victorian corner pub of brick which still retains some old fittings; multiple entrances indicate it was originally divided by partitions into a number of bars. The main part of the pub is now an L-shaped bare wood floor bar with what looks like a Victorian counter facing two sides with brackets and all the front painted white. There is a heavily carved section of the bar back that looks old with a plain mirror and some modern additions. The ceiling on the right hand side appears to be of metal sections and is an impressive reproduction. A wide arch on the left with decorative spandrels all painted light blue leads to what was originally the billiard room with a plain skylight, and the good wood surround fireplace could be old. Impressive entrance from Pryland Road with tiling in multi-colours and a mosaic floor with the wording “Billiards Saloon Bar”.
