"It is! I've only been a few times." He fails to mention that a few of those occasions were for less-than-savoury reasons. "There's a few decent drinks, though! We've got a menu and everything."
Finally sitting back down (no knee impact this time!), he skims the single menu they'd been offered, tracking down the portion with the beverage options. There's a few classics: ale, mead, champagne, beer, but with a few cocktails of varied strange names beneath them. Among them are such notable titles such as Alligator Princess, Swan's Throat Lozenge, Serranai's Spit, Last Will and Testament, Blanket Hornpipe, and Aster's Garters. Good luck ordering any of these with a straight face.
Jon taps one in particular. "I've only ever tried the... er. Knickerbockers one, but it's lovely. Lemon juice and a bit of rind, raspberry syrup, rum, and curaçao over ice. I think you'd enjoy it."
