 So that everybody knows: All the She who must be obeyeds would be
 very welcome too.

There are two Shes who must be obeyed in my household.
The younger makes her wishes known be various chortles, grunts and
sometimes (not often, surprisingly for her age) crying.

Is the Twisted Hop suitable to have Bubs on my lap while I imbibe an ale or two?

Not if she is grunting and/or crying.

 There's a growing group of us that show up at the Twisted Hop on
 Fridays from 12:30 onwards to work due to the wifi access :)

Nice for you desk jockeys. You can take your work to the pub. How to I
park a 50 metre lattice tower on a table to rig it with MW dishes and
GSM/UMTS antenas?

What if she just sits on my lap looking wide eyed at all the strange
geeky people playing with their laptops?
If no-one fills my glass I'll let her push some buttons :-P

Yeah, but you get to work with 50 metre lattice towers with MW dishes
and GSM/UMTS antenas (?).  I get to work with a desk and YADM (yet
another dcf model).

I don't think it matters much if the crying isn't too voluminous. From
experience you have to screem at each other anyway if you want to hold a
conversation.
