Nice enough pub with freindly enough folk and a reasonable pint of Brakspears Gold.

Enjoyed a few pints in this place over the last few years. This is only a small pub and very easy to miss if you do not know of its existence. A lot of regulars frequent this establishment but are friendly enough, and there is a nice little outside area for smokers.

Had a pint of very drinkable Landlord (£3.20) last night. Decent enough pub but by virtue of it being just one room, was very busy around 6.30pm.

Not a bad pub, beers are in good condition and the place sports a nice atmosphere. Will return again. The guinness is good in here

Real ales on were London Pride, Timothy Taylor Landlord, and the more rarely seen O’Hanlon’s Yellowhammer. I went for the Yellowhammer as it as an ale that I’ve only had a couple of times before, and it was as good as I remembered from the previous occasions. Food menu consisted of Thai food – great if you like it, which I do and the chicken green curry was most enjoyable. However, a group of six American tourists wandered in (presumably having taken a wrong turn at Buckingham Palace) looking for some fish and chips, and were somewhat surprised to find that an English pub didn’t have this staple menu item on offer.

This is a smallish one-room pub down Wilton Rd, which looks as if it ought to be a backstreet pub, but is prevented from being one by virtue of being on a busy thoroughfare. There were some stools at the bar; one high table and high stools, as well as some normal tables and chairs and a scattering of small stools. There didn’t seem to be anything unusual in the way of decor, though I did spot some prints at the back featuring the Crown Jewels and other regal paraphernalia. There were some picnic benches outside, presumably for smokers, with a canopy over them which unfortunately made the inside even gloomier than it would otherwise have been on a very dull and overcast day. There was TV monitor on showing the cricket, but muted, some pop music being played, and I saw a one-armed bandit flashing away. It’s carpeted throughout, which gave it a warm feel, and the windows had some Victorian style drapes next to them.

But my abiding memory of this pub is the overpowering smell of disinfectant, or some other cleaning product, that lingered throughout my visit. Nonetheless, I quite liked this small and reasonably cosy pub. I am sure that without the all-pervading smell of disinfectant it would be much nicer.
