Serving beer brewed with craft and flavour alongside fresh quality food in a pleasant and relaxed environment is what they do best. Pub classic lunches like Fish‘n’Chips are available but their daily specials (ranging from Smoked Poussin to a BLT with chips to Mac‘n’Cheese) offer something for everyone. They now also offer a Lunch Time Loyalty Card where customers can receive their tenth lunch free. Grazers, snackers and sharers are not left out - the ever popular Scotch Egg with a runny yolk means the days when beer and crisps were sufficient lunch time companions are long gone!

With a range of classic empanadas, steak sandwiches, 100% Angus beef burgers and salads there’s no need to weigh yourself down in the middle of the day just because you fancy something meatier or more hispanic than a shop sandwich. Enjoy fabulous quality beef cooked on the classic Argentine flame grill or crunchy salads and vegetarian empanadas (filled pastries) on Thursday or Friday lunchtimes. conStancia 52 tanner Street Se1 3Ph 020 7234 0676 I remember my line manager, a woman of wit, charm and intellect actively encouraging me to read Jeffrey Bernard in the late eighties and to almost adopt his hedonistic lifestyle that was funny but I doubt added much, if anything, to my effectiveness. Dutifully I did, and was one of the first to to see ‘Jeffrey Bernard is Unwell’in the West End with Peter O’Toole in the lead role. The play showed Bernard, the famous Fleet Street hack who, with a bunch of cronies, would spend every available hour boozing while still churning out exceptional, scathing copy for his‘Low Life’column in the Spectator. His drinking buddies at The Coach & Horses in Soho included other highly productive yet equally well-oiled characters like the artist Francis Bacon and cartoonist Michael Heath. This was a typical workplace (at least as I knew it in the city) back then, when come 12 or 1pm it was the done thing to slide out from the smokey desk having spent the morning sipping sweet machine-vended coffee and head to the nearest barstool in the similarly smoke-filled pub next door. hour hour hour
