| Pride at £3.90 a pint no way Londonchef - 9 Jan 2012 12:06 |
| Nice pub. He only had London Pride, but it was good. He didn't seem to be drunk, and was extremely polite and friendly. I would certainly recommend a visit if you are in the area. nich52 - 8 Jun 2011 18:09 |
| I go in here regularly - both for a pint (well kept London Pride) and for a bite of Thai food with mates or the ball'n'chain (hope I'm annonymous on here to get away with that one...). It's usually around £8-9 for the food, which basically puts it into the take-away bracket so thumbs-up to them on that. Often has sports on a big screen, but this is in no way a "sports bar" and I would bet any unruly behaviour would get short-shrift. Doesn't have Sky Sports, but does get a feed from some other Euro sports channel that includes some Sky games. Not sure about these references to the 'drunk' landlord! He's always seemed sober enough to me, and very polite with it. Other than him, the team behind the bar are basically the same lasses who act as the 'restaurant' waitresses. My only complaint is that, although efficient, they could be a tad friendlier. It really wouldn't hurt to crack the odd smile or to exchange pleasantries with the customer. Perhaps I'm being overly critical - or maybe I should be thankful for swift and accurate service and value this over friendliness but haphazard approach. Call me picky but can I have both?! marcus_SE16 - 11 Apr 2011 15:31 |
| I live nearby too and the landlord sounds drunk even if he is stone cold sober!!He's a good landlord keeps a very nice pint and the Thai food is great and well priced. Londonchef - 3 Nov 2010 16:43 |
| I live in the area and it's a nice little pub, however, the owner (who is an Irish chap) is an utter tool and regularly gets drunk at the bar. damoceltic - 8 Sep 2010 14:37 |
