InJuly 2022 The Baring reopened as a quite posh gastropub/restaurant with
seating area at the bar but most tables set up for dining (though when visited some punters were just having a session). Reopened under the management of Adam Symonds and chef Rob Tecwyn. Oct 2023 - one cask beer from Five Points, keg offerings from Anspach & Hobday, Five Points and Harbour.
Local authority listed, imposing, cosy back street corner pub. Worth seeking out. The pub underwent a full refurbishment many years ago, including repairs to damage inflicted by the Luftwaffe! Close for the Regent's canal and former Gainsborough film studios. Nearest tube for some will be Angel.
