Keith had never worked in Bloomsbury before he came to this free-of-tie pub in 2010. He worked here for three years, took a short break from 2013 to last August, then returned to the business. He now lives upstairs in the historic listed flat above the pub.

His favourite thing about the area is the sense of community between local traders. He buys in wine from Albion, the business opposite, and meat from McKenna’s, the local butcher. He enjoys the many different customers - from the local hospital, from media businesses and from Holt University campus - and also likes it that the local residents are such a mix of people from different backgrounds.
