This was once an "improved pub," or "inter-war pub," built by Truman's in the 1930s. It's now the Lahore Restaurant, serving halal meat. Church Street, Lisson Grove
From an article in The Guardian about the inter-war pubs: "Characterised by folksy arts and crafts architecture and a bigger variety of spaces, including restaurants, lounge bars and expansive beer gardens, the improved pub was an attempt by breweries to lure a more respectable kind of clientele. With improved facilities and a more open-plan layout allowing easier surveillance from behind the bar, it was hoped this new species of refined pub might attract women and families, and help to shed the Victorian pub’s image as a sordid den of drunkenness."
