Pub 3047, Leathern Bottel, Lewknor. Been in every GBG but one and it shows. One of those rare 'food but incredibly pubby' birds. Carpet a solid 8. Things hanging off ceiling aren't car air fresheners. Gravity drinking Brakspearly.

The soft skills of running a good pub
Why do bars that appear to be very similar just work, while others don't? We explore the importance of soft skills to enhance your experience.
