| Police hate the place and are trying to revoke its 24 hour licence because of the trouble in and around the place. RUMRAT - 28 May 2008 15:03 |
| I love this place, it has some fantastic live bands like Beaver and The Crack, and if thats too loud for you then there is a bar upstairs playing some classic music from 1970 to 1990. There's Karaoke on which is always good for any pub entertainment, but the hosts are hidden in what i call a garden shed. It is true that upstars can be full of ermmmmmm.....mature people, but end of the day we are all getting old and the day will come when we go into a club and some snotty teenage kid will tell you to "piss off Grandad/Granny....init past your bedtime???" This place does also have a reputation for fighting but i must say the hundreds of times i've been in it's been a good atmoshere and if anything does kick off Stevie and his crew are on the case fast. As for real ale's well i couldn't give a toss but i would like them to maybe have a total referb as the place is looking a bit dated....take a leaf out of Dusk's book's boys, it could bring you better clientel. ivedrankinallthepubs - 6 May 2008 22:41 |
| This pub creates a conundrum Yes, they serve ale. 6X is not going to set my world on fire, nor is London Pride (as a now Londoner I'm yet to hear anyone proudly proclaim their love for the stuff). But, and happily for me, they do serve ale and some lager choices. Bad points? Well it's a pub-club which means it's already scoring low. Always rammed with people getting smashed which while not being aproblem, is when there is always aggro in here. The place used to (not sure now) stay open until 5am - way to go clever folk of the Dorothy and while this is good for getting a beer at a stupid time, actually managed to put me off by going in. Before anyone starts, Dusk (the one along the road from it) is pretty awful, and if I had to choose the Tickled Hippy/Lazy Lizard (whatever it';s called these days) would be my choice. But the Dorothy could be so much better if it a) Didn't run kareoke. Seriously, if a pub runs kareoke, it's lost my custom without me walking in the door for life b) Didn't have such an arcane door policy. I went for a ciggie outside (after getting permission) and was told I couldn't come back in again byt he same bouncer who'd let me out!!!! Reason: "We're too busy". Numptie On the other hand, why bother fixing what seems to work for the vast majority of customers - shame it won't be me then... rampantwurzel - 18 Jan 2008 09:58 |
