It has a very cosey atmosphere. However, my spouse and I thought our "night cap" after a first-rate dinner across the street at Le Paddock was met with a bar tender & clientele that was, in the misses words, "stuck up."
Granted, weekday near closing time ... not, necessarily, the best time to have a solid first impression of pub, but, as a one who has tended bar at a locals pub in South Beach, Miami, FL there's really no excuse for a place like this to "have airs," or be too "busy" with side-work to have its hospitality compromised due to circumstanc.
