Grubby dive, lousy over-microwaved food and to cap it all, they refused to play the sound for the football. Get's a one for the prices (otherwise zero).

VIDI, VICI, VENI. Monty eat your heart out. Loved by all. good vibe. 4 point hourly strategy on cooking or fighting larger. THE most friendly bar staff / pool table + glitter ball. Top pub. A truly unique experience.

Yes it is a dodgy pub with the most dodgy people, but hey when you finish work at midnight at the local bar, and you want cheap drinks and a laugh at the local trash its all in good fun, the staff are lovely and the drinks are dirt cheap, its very tacky but a laugh and a lot of fun.

Last time I went here there was a sad, lonely man in his 50s dancing on his own in the corner, totally drunk. I can imagine this was how Ebeneezer Scrooge felt when he saw the ghost of christmas future.
Great pub for people watching, if the people you like to watch are the terrifying dregs of the city. It's the sort of place that fills up when every other place has shut, so don't bother going before 11pm, if you bother going at all.

Like The Monument across the road, The Britannia is another pub I used to occasionally frequent when working in the area and like the other pub, it hasn’t changed. The sometimes-enticing music you hear as you walk down into the entrance, unfortunately leads to a rather bland and soulless bar. I’ll give this pub a 5 because the isn’t anything inherently wrong with it, it’s just not particularly good either.

An absolute dump , City chavs only !! The only thing interesting about this place is the variation of puke stains outside on a Monday morning - filth !!!

Nope, it's just a cesspool mate. Full of grubby little men in Mr Buyrite suits and Next shirt an tie combos drinking wife-beater.
Have I offended a favoured haunt of yours squire?

Diabolical dump. A magnet for lowlife.

underground vertical-drinking hellhole. You can smell the toilets from the street outside.

I'm getting quite into this place at the moment. Not literally at the moment, but you know what I mean. Cheap beer, small discotheque, lively atmosphere. Not at all poncey like most nearby establishments.

Haven't visited for a while but always used to be good. Downstairs bar is very pleasant and they were one of the first pubs to offer a wide range of flavoured vodkas if you fancied a break from the well kept beers. Gets busy as you would expect between about 5.00 and 8.00 at night, but is pleasant enough at most other times.
