The Pond
Baby Bao from Taiwan (l,d; £)
You won't find traditional pub grub at this friendly tavern. Instead, the specialty is bao - Taiwanese steamed buns. Fresh and tasty, the fillings include pork, mushroom, tofu, chicken and fish with accompaniments. A variety of sides are also available.
Although veggie options are available every day of the week, the first day of the week is Meat-free Monday when the whole menu is vegetarian.
There's an extensive range of craft beer from all over the planet to wash down the bao and be sure to check out Pondwater Pale Ale, the pub's own brew.
