I went there shortly after the review in the Washington Post Magazine.
Overall, my reaction was not positive.  The live music was too loud.
It made conversation in the bar portion of the place very difficult
and it gave me a bit of a headache.  They ran out of the best beer
they had on tap (I think it was Oxford) so we had to make do with Bass,
American stuff, and bottles.  And the place is too bright.  They have
more light fixtures in there than I ever expected to find in a place
that's billed as an English pub.

These are all things that can be easily fixed but I just haven't had
the urge to try them again.
