| It's ok. Not the best and not the worst pub around. Have an evening every couple of months with a few mates. Few beers, a chat, game of cards, watch the football. Usually a good night. quiet_pint - 23 Jan 2008 17:05 |
| OK OK I can see why to some customers this pub isn't going to be their cup of tea, but to some people this is a great pub. I don't use it regularly, but I have been in 'now and again' and the people are generally very friendly. You get 'stares' from groups of 'lads' in a lot of pubs these days, and this isn't the only one in the area where that happens now and again. I agree that the management need to buck up their ideas but the staff do their level best and are extremely friendly and helpful - if you ask for local knowledge the staff and locals will happily engage (it's amazing what you can achieve by being polite and actually talking to people rather than by judging them by the way they look). As for the atmosphere, on match days this can be fantastic when there is a big crowd in. Some of the comments posted here are vitriolic, snobbish and based on prejudice. This claerly isn't a top of market gastro-pub for a high net worth clientele, but it isn't the nightmare the reviewers make it out to be either. Oh, and to the reviewer that said avoid the food....with you on that one! Harshbutfair07 - 26 Nov 2007 08:55 |
| Oh dear! Despite yet another splash of paint, and a few tiles in the toilets, the place descends still further into the mire. The last 'sparkle' (and I use that phrase loosely) also involved removing the bar overheads. This has had the effect of creating an almost sterile atmosphere in the place. It's a shame the same cannot be said for the toilets, which although improved are still pretty filthy. Food, although reasonably priced, can be hard to find, as the advertised serving times are more there for comedic value than information. The manager (who is also a very part time cook), will close the kitchen on a whim. This may be that he would rather stand at the end of the bar drinking a pint and watching a football game than actually perform one of the tasks for which he is employed. The regular employed staff try their best to please, but they are undermined continually by the awful incumbent management. This is the root of the problem. With small children running around unchecked, and a 'don't give a damn' attitude, nothing will improve until they are replaced with management which have at least an iota of customer service values. Oh, and the beer is warm rubbish as well. Avoid it like the plague. anonymous - 3 Oct 2007 16:43 |
| Is everyone missing the point? There is not getting away from the fact this pub has an element of terrible customers within. I gave it the benefit of the doubt when I got off the train and wanted to see the last 20 mins of the second half. I had a group of five blokes glaring at me as if I had invaded their living room. I had the same situation on another occassion where my football team was playing and I had just got off the train. Do not close this place down or the customers will go elsewhere. Keep them all in one place. anonymous - 10 Aug 2007 21:00 |
| When I passed this on the way to the Royal George it was the scene of a riot nearly as full-fledged as the one that shut down the Stoneleigh. Drunken youths being bundled into police vans, the lot. beeronaut - 30 Jun 2006 05:30 |
