Good spot by the canal for a few drinks. Chilled out vibe. Seems to be quiet during the day. Good for watching sport.

Came to watch an Arsenal-Man Utd game here a while back. Manager insisted I needed to buy a drink straight away. When I told him half time was only 5 mins away and I'd come to bar when the half finishes but he was having none of it and said aggressively that I needed to buy a drink immediately or leave. The place was empty as well and I ended up missing the rest of the half as it took him ages just to serve a pint of coca cola. Won't be returning again. The manager at the time was some apna banda who needs to learn some manners

As put the place it is classic with a twist, very spacious, nice place to have a drink, the only downside is the fact that they don't have much choices for beer... however they are not bad. They play various sports on tv's and this make them a good place to come and watch your favorite team. Also they are right in the canal, if the water is clean, it is really nice to sit outside and enjoy the view.

I regularly visit to have a few drinks then came across that PennyBlacks now offer Indian Tapas food I tried the Peri Peri wings, Butter Chicken and Naan. The food was exceptionally presented and tasted really good. Highly recommend

Visited recently, Indian tapas food has recently been introduced and I can say the food was amazing. The place was clean and had a great atmosphere would recommend to everyone.
