As I'm a massive fan of their other pub in Soho so I decided to spend my important client schoozing night at The Temperance, it's nearer and if The Endurance is anything to go by should be a safe bet.Much to my surprise food was still being served after 5pm so me and my guest's tucked into some delicious tapas.Now I'm never normally bothered by bar staff...they always seem busy and just get the job done of serving me my drink, however tonight I was with clients from abroad and I can actually say I was embarrassed by the service.There was a team of Ying & Yang working behind the bar, one pleasant, pretty and really helpful when ordering food etc,the other was very rude, aggressive and looked completely out of place in there.She was so rude to my guest when they ordered I was mortified.So if you do fancy going to The Temperance try to avoid the Trunchbull look-alike and you should have a decent time in there.

Was in the area and this place seemed busy so I popped in a for a pint with a mate. We stayed all afternoon!
Great menu (The roast beef was a killer portion and very well cooked too!), happy staff (a rariety sometimes in pubs) and a real good buzz! It was like a pub should be, lively, good beer (always important to me!!), and even the music was good in a retro ''borrowed from your own record collection'' kind of way (no muzak schmultz here!).
I almost don't want to tell anyone how good this pub is, for fear of inviting the wrong crowd. Like all pubs should be, you can chat to anyone without worrying about making a fool of yourself - handy for me!. Frequented by scientists, philosophers, phsychologists, mathamaticians, artsists, trekkies, hippies, skifflers, fools, crazy muthas, train-spotters, Scottish Jews, beer-collectors... you name it, they drink here. I will be back and even though I was out of my usual drinking area, I would and will make a trip back!
