I use this pub nearly every week for a drink before I move on. It's a bit of weird one is O'neills. Due to its size it becomes very easy to look empty a lot of the time. They do reasonable food and there's no doubting its excellence as a venue for watching sport. The giant screen hanging from the heavens means that you can still see it no matter how busy it is. On the negative side, as soon as it gets really busy it becomes almost impossible to get a drink. The staff seem to spend a lot of time hovering around the kitchen end of the bar. They need to introduce a zonal marking system behind the bar. I don't know if it's a result of the recession but they never seem to have enough staff. They are also now doing regular live music which is really good. On the whole you get a good crowd and no little oiks.

I have been there a number of times lately and it never disappoints. The bar staff are very friendly and even at the busiest of time you are not waiting that long to get served, unlike Lloyds where I have given up many times.

The woman bouncer is one of the funniest and friendliest I have ever come across. We popped in 1 evening to find they hadn't any Guinness (this was during the snow period). We had a Guinness Red and then left. She asked us why we were leaving so early. She was amazed at our reason, no Guiness and we had a right laugh.

They have regular bands on and there is never any trouble there. It has a great atmosphere which is helped by the traditional pub interior and moody lighting.

As I have mentioned before the worst thing about the place is its toilets. The mens are worse than a train stations.

If you are out near Market Square then this is the best pub to go to.

I LOVE ONeills Bromley at the weekend! it is a shame there are not more pubs like this to bring more people to Bromley town centre, it is the only place with no attitude in Bromley, but still cheap wine and food!

I agree toilets need a refurb. It needs to stay open later than 11pm too, it is keeping more people from coming and ends a good night far too early!

I have been there a few times lately and I must say that it is probably the best pub in the town centre. It always has a very welcoming atmosphere and the bar staff are very welcoming. Usually they are smiling when serving you and also make conversation. It's great to see bar staff that enjoy their jobs and make an effort to make each visit fun and enjoyable.

It never disappoints. However like other Bromley Town pubs at the weekend it has got a little quieter at the weekends. I hope we don't loose this one to the recession. Saying that it was surprisingly busy in the evening of last Thursday.

I wish they would treat us to new toilets though as they are worse that station ones.
