The pub itself must be one of the most beautiful in London and has the added benefit of doing Aspall cider on draft. Unfortunately thats where the good stuff ends. 3 of us had a ploughmans recently and it was by far the worst quality I have ever had the misfortune to be served, the bread was stale, cheese rancid, tomatoes and celery tasteless and the portions (thankfully!) miniscule. When we complained we were told the manager would pop over- nothing happened- when we pressed on this the waitress was rude and said it was meant to be like that! I suppose the arrogance and ignorance must come from the top down. Big shame as we would never visit again and hope the rumour that it is on the market is true and that it passes into ownership of people who care about their customers and produce decent food. I have given it a three for the decor alone.

The word on the street is that Ramsey's "magic" isn't working here and he's put the place back on the market. Let's hope so. Anybody got a few million to spare?

I like this place, has everyone forgotten why you go to a pub - to enjoy a beer with ur friends??? I don't think people should comment on food when they haven't even tasted it!

Well, 3pound 20 for a pint of London Pride says it all. Over priced average fare. Ramsey has a great oportunity to give us some great beer but it's the same old Pride, Greene King IPA, Adnams, Peroni, Kronenburg and oh my God is Ramsey a total idiot, Fosters! How can you take him seriously when he serves the beer equivalent of a big mac in his pub. I wouldn't mind paying a little more for good quality but the Warrington fails to deliver. Don't bother making a special effort to visit.

As I live a few yards down the road from this place, I really should be in there all the time. Somehow, though, it is just not the sort of place that you feel affection towards. Sure, it has a fantastic interior (and exterior), and the beer is well-kept. I suppose the food is probably good, though I've never tried any, bit pricey for pub nosh.

I suppose part of my issue is the atmosphere - having bouncers on the doors weekend evenings, the benches outside are silly kid-sized things that can hardly accommodate anyone, they've pulled down the blinds that used to make the inside bearable in the summer evenings when the sun comes round. All sounds niggly, but it adds up to a place that I do still have an occasional beer at, but don't love.

Incidentally "apparently" the building was a brothel in the 1800s, and sitting as it does on "Randolph Avenue" gave rise to the term "randy"!
