Stopped by this pub for after dinner drinks. The craft cocktails were pretty good. The music playing was top 40 pop which was an odd choice for a british-style pub. The service was decent, albeit slow.
The chicken Tikka misala was delicious! As was the Naan. That said, the total cost was $35+ for a small dish of chicken and an order of Naan. Again, it was delicious and the atmosphere was nice, but it was a little overpriced.

We had very nice lunch here. Strong black English tea plus a delicious Indian spiced lamb shepard's pie were the real highlights, although the Scotch egg was also a hit with our party of four. Bangers and mash were very good, with the banger sausage carmelized nicely. While you may think a British pub should be in an old building, the modern atmosphere does not detract from the flavorful British/Indian food.
