New Year, New Pub & Music Later On

7.30 - The Stranded, 430 Strand, WC2R 0JR
8.45 - The Lemon Tree, 4 Bedfordbury, WC2N 4BP
10.00 - The Marquis, 51-52 Chandos Place, WC2N 4HS

The Stranded, 430 Strand, WC2R 0JR - https://www.thestrandedldn.com - is a new pub for the group, having only opened last summer. It's only 100 yards or so from Charing Cross station - you'll find it on the opposite side of the road walking eastwards along the Strand, away from Trafalgar Square. It specialises in Czech lagers, principally Budvar's, dispensed using side-pour taps rarely found in the UK. However, it's also unusual in offering a range of Timothy Taylor's ales rather than just the ubiquitous Landlord.

The plan is to move on to The Lemon Tree, 4 Bedfordbury, WC2N 4BP - https://www.lemontreecoventgarden.com - at about 8.45 and then The Marquis, 51-52 Chandos Place, WC2N 4HS - https://www.themarquiscoventgarden.co.uk - at around 10.00. The Lemon Tree is a quieter pub better suited to conversation, whereas The Marquis is best known for music, it's USP being classic tracks on vinyl. I expect most people will choose whichever one suits them best or flit between the two.

As ever, we may do things differently on the night. Please take a note of my number - 07761-816862 - so that you can phone me if you can't find us (but no texts or messaging please).

Please sign up as soon as possible if (but only if) you fully intend to attend and cancel promptly if your plans change so we don't end up with no-shows when other people are on a waitlist.
