Traditionally popular, the pub is a meeting point for
everybody. It is not rare to see a staff person talking
with the head of some department of the company in there.
They are open until 11pm and happy hour from 5pm to
7pm. The most well known are Hoggshead, Picher and Piano,
All Bar One, Slug and Lettuce… Food is less expensive
