If a man was allowed to marry a pub, I'd marry this one. Great jukebox.

Pa used to drink in here in the late 70s & still has a certain charm & at less not pretenious like so many pubs though I give it 6/10

This is my nearest pub. But it's not "my local"

Wow what a dirty dingy place! Full of old drunks and chavs! Aint going back there!

I agree with PJB, the Buckingham has kept a lot of its old architectural features but unless you like Guinness Extra Cold there is bugger all to drink there.

Probably best left to the local 'regulars'. Traditional pub, but bit grubby and a bit of a lack of welcoming atmosphere...

Popped in yesterday (used to live in the area 25 years ago!).
Not much going for it bar the curved doors & separate bars & standard beers on sale. However i DO wish there were more pub these days un touched by the hands of time.

Landlord and Lady are top notch, but the pub has a bit of a weird vibe, like when you sit in an electric chair!!!!

good pint, but full of dodgy punters

went here once as my mum lives down the road. It conforms to standard Kingston pub levels - ie pretty darn average.

A disjointed, unpleasant pub (& toilets) but nice staff and the beer was OK. Curved doors are a feature.
