| Situated in a road just off Victoria Street, The Greencoat Boy is a T&J Bernard House serving local office workers and tourists alike. The green-painted exterior is inviting with hanging baskets helping to create a warm invite. Interior wise, the pub is comfortable and cozy, with a tidy, orderly feel throughout. Being a chain pub, there are the usual rubber-stamped fitting, though the hanging urns and jugs go someway to adding a touch of character. The background music was suitably sedate, and with here not being particularly busy on my recent visit, helped to create a somewhat relaxed ambience. A basement bar is available for private hire. A standard food menu is available and the family observed seemed happy enough tucking in. As always, it was pleasing to see an array of real ales on offer – even if the choices were a little mainstream: Bombardier, Young’s Bitter, London Pride and Adnams Bitter. The latter was served in perfectly drinkable condition and prices are reasonable for the area. There was only one gentleman behind the bar during my stay, yet service was pleasingly prompt and efficient. To conclude: a generally okay experience and although here lacks any real standout charm, I found the pub to be pleasant and am certainly not repelled by the idea of a return visit.

| This pub should improve greatly now that Dave from the Albert is in charge. beercritic - 19 Apr 2009 07:27 |
| Unoriginalname has summed this pub up perfectly. A decent enough boozer and at least they were happy to serve us unlike the Albert. copnorsteve - 20 May 2008 20:55 |
| While it might not win any awards, it's nice enough, serves some decent beers and, once the suits clear out, is quite a pleasant place. unoriginalname38 - 25 Sep 2007 17:21 |
| One of the old T & J Barnard pubs which is slowly shaking of this image.Mainly an office workers pub with some tourists at weekends. Looked like becoming a decent pub when new manager took over but has slipped into the ways of many pubs in the area with a couldn't less attitude from staff unless you happen to be regular beercritic - 23 Jun 2007 09:02 |
