ROMANS A NOVEL: @AlmeidaTheatre

If in the Haymarket area, the Brumus Bar in the #HaymarketHotel @Firmdale_Hotels is very pleasant for a pre-show drink or more. Attentive service, generous and delicious peppermint tea and filter coffee, about £6 each. Far nicer than most coffees shops nearby, feels the monkey.
