| This is a really avarage bar but the food is pretty terrible. I have given it a try about 3 times and the service has been slow, wrong and the quality of the food pretty poor. They even got a jacket potato wrong which is surely the easiest thing in the world to get right. jimbob79 - 9 Feb 2007 11:05 |
| jesper, get a life, this pub is one of if not the best pubs in the area it is certainly the busiest. The manager is always around if there are any problems and the staff are efficient. I drink in this pub every week and have never had an issue with it yes it is pricey but i think you may have forgotten where it is (OXFORD CIRCUS)you expect to pay more in that area. Next time you want to moan about a perfectly good pub pop into the toilet and have a look at yourself first then think about it! anonymous - 29 Oct 2006 22:33 |
| I think it’s an awful pub. On my last visit 3 of the staff stood away from the bar talking, whilst one poor girl did her best to cope on her own. The bar was sticky and dirty, there was no atmosphere. A drunk at the bar cast aspersions on my sexuality because I, sin of sins carried a bag. It was like some form of 1970's homophobic time warp. In that part of town there are nicer, cheaper, friendlier and generally better pubs to choose from. Visit one of them instead, any one of them! However if you do find your self in there make sure you don’t carry a bag and make sure you assert very loudly that you prefer kissing girls to kissing boys. Jesper - 26 Jul 2006 11:22 |

| i have visited this pub on a few occasions and have always found it to be clean, pleasant and friendly. the staff are efficient and the manager is always helpful. pop in and try the steak its lovely and they have a pretty good dj on at weekends. the previous comment about the pheonix round the corner is rubbish that place has no personality at all. kbeech - 22 Apr 2006 14:48 |
