| I used to go to the Tavern for some time. Service was always poor, but yesterday it just was over the top. I will not be going there ever again. After a few drinks, a very miserable bartender refused to sell me a drink and then for no reason asked me to leave because as he put it "I was rude to him". Things escalated to the manager and when I asked what I did specifically, say or do to upset him, he would not give me any reasonable explanation. This genius assumed I am drunk and told me to leave. Of course I had a drink (I WAS IN THE PUB, DOH!) but nowhere near to cause any trouble. It was simply humiliating what they did and I will never ever go there again. Also I will tell all my mates about it. I know a few dozen people in the area, I will tell everyone to AVOID this place. They are not worth my money or my friends money. Apart from that incident service was ALWAYS poor. tommyboynice - 13 Jan 2012 16:15 |

| A couple of years ago The Crown was one of the best pubs in the area. High praise, considering the abundance of great boozers in Clerkenwell. On recent visits, however, it seems that standards of excellence have slipped ever so slightly. The eclectic range of bottled beers behind the bar has significantly diminished, whilst the cask offerings are also fairly prosaic. The bar staff have never been the most accommodating bunch, but this has been the case for as long as I’ve frequented the joint. Don't get me wrong. I still like the pub, and it has a lot of things in its favour. It is at the heart of Clerkenwell Green, one the most historic areas of London. A young Stalin and Lenin were first rumoured to have meet here back in 1903. I don't buy into that, but it's nice to imagine them tucking into pints of Pilsner Urquell. Misk. - 14 Feb 2011 16:59 |
