The Slaughtered Lamb is a relatively recent remodelling of an old gallery space - so it's an ideal pub for an area with so many loft-converted flats. Equipped with a slouchy style similar to many pubs in the capital, a mixture of squishy sofas and well-worn wooden furniture. There's the slight air of this pub existing in ironic quotation marks: it's the sort of pub where the dart board is artily displayed in a cabinet, rather than actually available for play. As for its name, the pub doesn't go silent on entering like its namesake in 'American Werewolf in London', though the too-cool-for-school attitude of the bar staff was just as chilly. Having said all that, this one grew on us during our visit. For a start, the (rather rare) Sleeman IPA slipped down a treat and the varied music mix (the Stones to Pink Floyd via trance and dub) suggested a great MP3 player stuck on random. Just as impressive was the menu: we were fully expecting to be flicking through our gastronglish-english translation dictionaries, but the choices were simple and clear and mostly under a tenner. It's enormously popular so don't expect to wander in for a quiet pint and a fireside chat, you'll be hard pressed even to see the seat.
