user reviews of the Widows Son, Bow

please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

This place changes hands every couple of years. The place will never be the same at is was in the 70s and 80s when the landlord and his wife would do anything for you. In the 60s there were a couple of black and white spotted dogs living there who we would walk on our break from school. It was a great pub back then especially with the hanging of the bun ceromony. Now, its just a place for a beer with if you pass by and many a night you will see it empty. I wouldn't be surprised if it gets closed altogether as it must be running at a loss.

So much potential... but nothing you'd want to drink unless lager head. If they would just have one or two real ales, it would be my local.

Nice little neighborhood boozer--I showed up there not looking for much besides my pint of Guinness, and had a really fine time with a friendly staff and some of the locals. This is an actual local, warts and all. I'd go there again if I ever found myself in the neighborhood.
