Location, location etc. My favourite West End meeting point, but nought there to make you linger once met

The barmaid was friendly; the beer was OK and I got another stamp on my Ale Trail card. Say no more!

Popped in here about 5pm on Friday last week - the pub was packed but attentive staff served quickly. Good atmosphere and four different ales on - would drop in again if passing

Street corner Nicholson's on the Caring Cross Road, clean and tidy, if a bit echoy from it's bare floorboards early on in a lunchtime.

Friendly enough staff considering the area and mainly touristy customer base. One barmaid was taking some time and care to let two newly arrived Americans try tasters of the various real ales to see which they liked.

Ales included Pride, Doombar, Landlord, Viscious US IPA, Jorvik Blond and Saltare Triple Chocoholic, which was very nice.

Nice enough place - lots of framed actors/directors photos around. Bit touristy given its location.
