| just curious if a barmaid still works here... her name is Dominika OBG - 12 Jun 2011 05:04 |
| @ mydeaddad I'm not asking anyone to kiss ass just not to look down their noses at me when they're serving me. drinkydrinks - 15 May 2011 23:15 |
| It's brilliant. What more do you want from a pub? It's got great beer, fantastic restaurant and god knows - if some of the reviewers had ever earned crappy wages serving the increasingly drunk and nasty FANTASTIC STAFF. So drinkydrinks earn £200 a week for a year serving the general public and see if you want to kiss ass.... The only downside I can see is that Toby Young drinks there. mydeaddad - 7 May 2011 22:02 |
| Been going to the St John for a number of years myself and must say I tend to agree with some of the more recent comments. Some members of staff CAN be a bit up themselves (yes, in particular The Pirate!) as can some of the clientele the place has been attracting lately but I suppose that just goes part & parcel with a place becoming a focal point for the more aspirational types in the area. I have had some fantastic meals in there. In fact have had birthday dinners there with groups of friends over the past few years and have never had any problems with the food tho perhaps the menu COULD do with a make-over. The 'bar snacks' are quite absurdly over-priced tho. have never understood why places do this when they would sell infinitely more were thir prices more reasonable. I for one, would not pay pounds for a small handful of olives when I know I can but a pound or two of the very same for a fraction of the price just down the road in Kentish Town! But all said and done, it is still my regular hostelry and certainly the best 'gastro pub' in the area so my grumbles are only minor and certainly won't put me off drinking and eating there.

| No that I advocate violence but the 'Thin chap' referred to by drinkydrinks is dying for a punch. He even managed to put a downer on an evening I spent in the Hideaway across the road by reserving a massive area for his birthday then getting the hump when only one of his party turned up and other people started to use the tables. Anyway, the St John again, yes the lad Chris and the Italian lad are top notch, had a great pint of -/80 in there recently as well as a selection of the best starters. Still warrants an 8.5 in my book. shand83 - 15 Sep 2010 19:04 |
