More information on Drum and Monkey

Entering the hallowed portals of this former bank, you may feel you have accidentally been allowed into an exclusive gentleman's club. The daytime atmosphere is almost religious but the pub motto "the odd libation for the overworked" soon puts drinkers at their ease. Seating is in the form of huge, comfy leather sofas and the bar is the original teller's counter. Old fixtures from the bank can be seen if you look for them, but the bar menu is more deserving of attention as the food is particularly good, if not exactly innovative.
