Brockley Central Drinks Presents: The Talbot

It's kinda like a speakeasy kind of thing. It's kinda cool. It's like you're in on some kind of secret. You tell a chick you've been some place, it's like bragging that you know how to find it.

There is a direct line connecting you back to the original, unequivocally cool, club...
