| Quiet which I actually prefer. The pool table is good despite some of the players taking the game a bit too seriously. The regulars like watching terrestial tv during the afternoon which I found odd. Foolsp - 23 Jul 2011 11:31 |
| Agreed Foodman...popped in here earlier today only to find it sparsely populated and with less atmosphere than the moon. Girl behind the bar was friendly and welcoming and looked almost disappointed when i left, she was probably hoping i may make for a busy afternoon. bluedocs123 - 25 Jun 2011 13:45 |
| I don't know if Mitchell & Butlers still own this pub but whoever does should hang their head in shame. This place could be a goldmine! With hundreds of new houses being built and occupied right on it's doorstep, a local pub like this should be offering a lot more than The Blue Lion is. It's tired, dirty and neglected by whoever owns it. Although there are hand pumps on the bar I haven't seen them in use for at least 5 years. Basically this place just needs a proper clean-up and lick of paint and enthusiastic management and it could be a lovely little pub. Everything is there;- a nice outside seating area, car park at the rear. Minimal investment would sort this place out and I'm sure it could make money. So frustrating to see it in it's current state. foodman - 31 May 2011 21:22 |
| Well, here we are again, and this pub has not changed, in fact it may even be worse than first thought. Some recent observations include visiting the gents, the landlords in there doing his 'stuff', and low and behold, he leaves without washing his hands. How disgusting is that? And this pub serves food. (and, no he didnt, wash them behind the bar instead) Also, there are a couple of 'herberts' who continually 'drop their guts', stinking the bar out. Well you wouldn't want to be eating in there! And all the landlord says, is, please go outdoors next time. So there you have it. If your in for a quick pint of the badly kept beers, then it probably wont worry you. (this pub has never been seen to be cleaning the pipes, which can be seen being done in other pubs on odd occasions, when the barrels need changing) imnodope - 16 Sep 2010 06:41 |
| This has to be one of the worst pubs in Bracknell when it comes to the cleanliness stakes. The toilets must rate as the worst in Britain, the gents had no flushing of the urinals for at least 3 months, the stench was incredible. Although the water situation has now been fixed, but the rest of the area is filthy. I'm surprised the local health dept allowed them to serve food. I will monitor this on my odd visit to the area and post urther comments. imnodope - 22 Aug 2010 10:06 |
