Normanby

A booze-devoted party crowd a few years past the age of consent aspire to mingle in the gene pool here. Oiling this engagement are San Miguel and Sharp’s Doom Bar on draught, other bottled beers and entry-level wines.

Food begins with the house breakfast (£6.75, or double everything for £9.75), then extends to burgers and other easy-to-consume dishes that suit punters gawping at the screens showing TV sports.

Those uninterested in sport or the love parade would do well to sit outside and perch on one of the high stools. Back inside, DJs occasionally spin from decks by the fireplace.
