A tiny, authentically grungy dive bar in Lower Clapton that punches above its weight with live music, strong cocktails, and a genuinely friendly crowd. The stiff drinks and house-brewed lager are worth ordering, and the sound system is surprisingly excellent for such a small space. Fair warning: it gets extremely hot and packed when there's a good band on, so come prepared to be shoulder-to-shoulder with other music lovers.
