The Office, Norfolk Street

• In April 2000 the landlord of the White Hart took over. He plans to return it to The Man On The Moon in name and nature.
• Reopened after several months' major refurbishment as The Office in September 1998 with a new landlord. A pool-themed venue with a suitably cheesy pub sign of a bowler-hatted gent. The former Irishness was retained only to the extent of the name - slang for boozer. See Better Day At The Office. The former landlady of the Baker's Yard took over in June 1999 (before moving on to the Osborne Arms).
• As The Man On The Moon, used to be a big folk music venue till a change of landlord led to the folk clubs moving back to the Portland Arms.
• In the current building's early days (mid 1960s) it was a trendy place, leading a certain undergraduate to write Everyone's Gone To The Moon.
• Pre-slum-clearance there was a Man In The Moon pub in the area.
