Seen by day, the Old Queen's Head is a large, attractive pub, its big fireplace surrounded by upholstered sofas and gilt-framed portraits in a church-like interior. None of this will be visible most evenings, when young, urban musos gather in force around pints of Guinness or bottles of lager.
A dozen cocktails are also offered - nothing too complicated or sophisticated, but nice enough - as well as around ten wines at fair prices. The food is pretty manly (burgers, steak baguettes and so on), but otherwise it's a good cosmopolitan mix, with the crowd on any given night split roughly 50-50 between girls and boys.
On weekend nights, everyone spills outside. Entertainment is generally of the up-for-it DJ variety (think of it as a spruced-up, expanded Social), though there's also a fine folk series staged in the comfortable upstairs room.

Angus, you have a splendid grasp of English grammar and punctuation, and congratulations on the use of the word stalwart, but you spelled it incorrectly my dear.
Sorry, but firstly; "the Old Queen's Head is an large, attractive pub, its big fireplace" etc etc... PLEASE sort this sentence out so that you sound like somebody who can grasp the basics of the English language, I always thought TimeOut was a stalwhart for atleast being able to construct a proper sentence, but...? "an large" & "its fireplace"... jesus, I've had a couple of glasses of wine & can still write better than your journo! Secondly, why do you only seem to review places that have an advertising revenue, rather than sites like, say, fancyapint or the ilk, who actually check places out?
Just wonderin'...
