We work across the street from this pub and used to drink there after work a good bit. today one of our staff joined us (we had ll ordered food and drinks) and she was carrying a coffee. The barman got extremely angry, telling our colelageu tog et out. He then became rather xenophobic (only one of us is British and he kept saying 'in my country' this and 'in my country that'), and we all had to leave. He refused to refund the drinks we had to leave standing.

for reference this guy said he was the manager.

Avoid, if unpleasant BNP attitudes are not what you want over a pint. We will from now on.

New landlords Steve and Linda took over on 21 October. Its now a Brakspear pub with loads of real ale.

This is one of the better pubs of the Elephant & Castle area so it deserves your custom. I would add that roughly 2 out of 5 of the E&C area pubs should close because they no longer have enough customers to be VIABLE : Start by closing the William and the Uxbridge!

Popped in for a pre-gig drink on a cold wet November evening and this was just the ticket. A cosy welcoming corner pub with a split bar and lounge and an nice rundown feel that is a good thing in my view. Decent Hobgoblin and Oxford Gold on tap and service was pleasant. Seems to be aimed for the students and there were some, all drunk and stupid but I wasn't deterred and won't be in future.
