Mason's Arms, Fitzroviaback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Change of ownership from Monday and a change of beer. GK IPA, Spitfire and ESB which was well served.
Something of a srreal exprience last night as the "hands on" landlord decided we were going to listen to Singalonga Max. Pack Up Your Troubles In Your Old Kit Bag and It's A Long Way To Tipperary evoked the spirit of the Blitz and by the end of the evening most of the punters probably lived through it.
Will be interesting to see what sort of crowd this is going to attract, particularly in the evenings.

Busy little street corner boozer. Brakspears Bitter, Youngs Bitter and Black Sheep on today. I had the Brakspears which was very good. The Thai menu looked popular - pity I didn't have time to try it.
There were 2 tv screens showing Sky but the sound was off so not a particular problem.

Pub closest to work and have drunk a lot in here. Landlord was always exceptional, other ales were Ordinary and Pedigree. Only problem is that the last two times they had no ale on at all! Thai food worth sampling. If the Landlord is on then stay, otherwise a walk to the Bree Louise/Doric Arch is recommended.

Well worth visiting. Decent food. Usually have a decent guest beer on.

Good London boozer. Great staff, marshalled well by the amiable landlord. I didn't have to wait long to get served during an England match at the World Cup, which has to be a good measure of bar staff efficiency. I went to a leaving drinks in the upstairs room, and it was a bit rammed but it felt like being in a house party - great atmosphere; I was looking for the kitchen for the traditional "kitchen party"!!
Nice simple pub, does everything right - bottom line: good beer, nice place.

Soho style pub - small yet packed with character. Tables on the pavement. Good value Thai menu. Serves an exceptionally good Landlord traditionally luke warm allowing lots of dusty hop flavour to burst on the palate above a gentle sweet toffee base.
