| OK if passing - busy pub with transients - serves real ale but the London Pride was not all that. kernott1 - 1 Feb 2012 19:01 |
| I go in here once a year at the start of a Christmas pub crawl. I've never, ever had a problem in this pub. I'm not mad about Wetherspoons, but the location does make sense, and it helps to get a few decent pints of real ale at a fair price before moving on. The only grumble really is that the outside smoking area is beset with beggars, druggies, and other undesirables, but that's a feature of railway stations. 6/10 for me, which ain't bad as Wetherspoons go.

| (This is a JDW, so everything you already think of them, still stands.) My last review being in 2010, I hadn’t returned to this pub for obvious reasons. Having just read the subsequent reviews since my last entry, everyone seems to be on the same page, citing dire service in a rather nice building. So, having stopped in for a much needed and deserved drink very recently, I felt compelled to revisit my review. Previously, arriving at the bar here would have been met with a surly and begrudging acknowledgment that you may like a drink. I was delighted to find on this occasion that the barman who was serving someone else, immediately let me know he’d be right with me and no sooner than I could say ‘no problem’, I was being asked what I would like by another member of staff. Whilst he scurried off to retrieve my drinks, I was then asked by another member of staff if I was being served. Now then, this isn’t wondrous, special or amazing treatment, it’s of course what should happen in every well run pub. But for anyone that has drunk here before, it’s an improvement worthy of note. I immediately noted that something must have changed, there must have been a new manager (pure supposition on my part) and that the staff had taken the lead from new management and/or new training. Drinks in hand, we scanned the floor for a table to occupy, but having seen a paper and pint on the one empty table, assumed it was taken. We happily remained at the bar and were lost in conversation when another member of staff apologised for the interruption and told us that he had cleared the table we had been pondering earlier. That for me was the confirmation I needed to suggest there had been big changes in this pub. Unless of course cosmic forces aligned for that one perfect pub experience, I’m going to assume they’re finally managed by someone who knows how to run a pub. Actually, I should probably go back to check, but I’ve typed this out now... EnfieldTaaaanBlud - 28 Nov 2011 15:07 |
| It's gone downhill and there are better pubs nearby! mcroyal - 10 Aug 2011 18:24 |
| always been a fight for me in here where there's just too many getting/trying to get served and the staff can't service the demand. It's not cheap as a Weatherspoons and only is a success due to it's handyness for trains, Brick Lane and bangin enough down the swallow hole to make the McDonalds taste nice later on. Never seen Cheryl Cole in here nor Sam Fox or Brigette Neilsen but hopes always eternal. I think if Bobby Crush turned up and started knocking out the tunes Liberace' style thenm no-one would notice and the Essex ding-bats wouldn't understand. Still beats the 'Spoons at Forest Gate where if you have a death wish then you should go there. Rough as a grizzly bears you know what thats been sand blasted by an F1-11 third engine rear thrust unit. Mcloj - 14 Jul 2011 13:00 |
