| Beers not kept very well, the Bombardier was awful and the IPA not much better, saving grace was the London Pride was drinkable but remained cloudy. The young girl behind the bar didn't see it as a problem when we commented on the cloudiness. Very Expensive and took ages to be served although not many at the bar, seems not all the people behind the bar are capable of serving or so it appeared. WhiteWolf - 29 Sep 2011 20:11 |
| Good selection of beer if you can get served. It was two deep at the bar so I joined the throng where the lady sporting the 'Duty Manager' badge was, in the belief she would be efficient. It transpired the two ladies ahead of me were not there to buy a drink, but were friends of the duty manager and had queued up to have a chat. The duty manager rather reluclantly served me and then returned to her friends while others were still waiting to be served. Tried two different ales which should have tasted completely different but they tasted exactly the same. Not bad but not good either. They've got a great location and will remain busy because of it so why worry about customer service? The vast majority are tourists who will never come back anyway. gareth1011 - 27 Jul 2011 13:15 |
| A real labyrinth of a pub with obvious history, lots of rooms over several levels including a cask ale room and cosy fireside snug. I agree with the last comment about the whole tourist trap, when we went in a Scottish guy who i guess is the landlord/owner was really over egging the Shakespeare thing to some gullible Americans who were lapping it up, culminating in him begging them to go online and comment on how good his staff are. If you're a tourist then i'd say go there, if you're not then stay away. topPINT - 27 Dec 2010 11:29 |
| What could be a great pub has bowed down to the tourist trap. no bitter on offer at all which is terrible. We left beerbones - 15 Dec 2010 14:33 |
