The Two Brewers

Friendly pub, excellent bar staff and a nice selection of beer and ale. As already mentioned in previous reviews you can bring your food from the street market into the pub as long as you buy a drink which is pretty cool.
We tried the wild goose ale which was very good!

This place is great as they invite you in to enjoy your street food with a pint. So that I did. Had a refreshing glass of London Lager and capped it off with a glass of Asphall Suffolk Cider. Tables are a nice size, comfortably full, and very friendly service.

Firstly, don’t let the high rating fool you, there are a couple of important things to note about this pub:
1. I’ts VERY small (this becomes an issue later).
2. It’s not particularly cheap.
3. It’s a bit grotty — not the sort of place you’d normally go.
All this aside, there are two things which alone deserve the four stars, their staff are amazing, they’re courteous and go above and beyond to help you out.
The first time I came in it was on a weekday at lunch (more on this in a sec). The pub was rammed, you could barely move. One of the staff members spotted my work colleagues and myself and swept off a previously reserved sign (I assume they were no shows) and effectively gave us table service the entire time we were there. It was definitely above and beyond.
The second reason these guys get a four star rating and also the reason it’s so popular at lunch time (causing problems because its small & also the reason I was there at lunch) is that they allow you to bring food you have purchased on Whitecross street into the pub and eat it. This is very cool of them.
for those reasons I would recommend heading down there at lunch time if you can. Make sure you call ahead though and book a table (and then subsequently turn up on time!)

Friendly bar staff, good range of drinks and, best of all, they allow you to bring in food from Whitecross St Market during the week and eat, provided you order drinks, of course. In the evenings, you can order pizza to be delivered to the pub to satisfy those late night cravings. The pub also has a dartboard which, strangely enough, is located right next to the entrance of the ladies so do watch out when making your way to the facilities.
