Bustling bar restaurant. Many beers on tap and they have outdoor seating. Better than pub food. The steak is really good and garlic mash potatoes delicious. Can get crowded because it's popular!

The Android statues are a tourist attraction where visitors are encouraged to come take photos. The sculptures are based on the code names for versions of Google's Android mobile operating system, which are named after desserts and sweet treats. Mmmm!
