There's an easier way to make both sides happy. Instead of "interviewing," suggest that you come and check the place out, talk to employees, and just get a feel for the company.

If you like it, follow up with an interview. If not, no expectations are broken, and no one gets hurt.

Ah, I wish this were so easy! Perhaps it's a certain lack of kahunas, but I never felt like it would be appropriate to ask the recruitment agent if I can swing by... plus, now in my consulting gig (sub-contractor) I get a call, hop on a plane, and go work someplace. (That said, no interview...)
