You walk down the very steep steps to get down into the bar & head to the cellar area to grab a table & you have to stoop over in order to walk around. It is lit by candle light & the walls/ceilings are all arched like the cellar that it is. Super cool. They only serve wine, sherry & port - in other words, if you want to grab a pint of Guinness, you'll have to stumble upon another pub - and there are many in the area. There is a limited selection of food here as well (so you don't get too noodled) but is served more in a cafeteria style.
There was this elderly lady there when we were there who I thought was a patron but who actually worked there - she must be the owner! She was so short, she could actually walk standing upright while she cleared the tables. She was very sweet when we spoke with her.
I had my camera with me - thank goodness!! Photos initially were challenging then I managed to play with enough settings to get some decent shots. This one is of the person I was travelling with. I really like this photo & have printed it off so I can either draw or paint it. Since it's so dark, I always thought a medium other than pencil would be best. Today I saw it & decided to try marker. It is ok considering it's marker.
Here's the photograph I took:
And here's my marker rendition:
Here's another of the cellar area (it's NOT a big place):
