| I pop in here with my grandfather most sundays for a beer and a spot of lunch. A great little pub that can rightly call itself a proper "local" with polite and friendly staff and a fantastic fire in the winter! willn - 21 Jul 2008 12:19 |
| A great pub. So I understand they have already once turned away the Young's interior design crew, and the place is all the better for it. Perhaps the only change I have seen in there is the updating of the beer garden with the partly covered section and solid furniture. Friendly staff. I never wait long to be served in here. Sometimes in Northcote road I think my thirst would be quenched quicker if I walked up the road to this pub. toomuchgastro - 2 Jun 2008 22:39 |
| Re dogs - not if they're making a nuisance of themselves, Mr Early Drinker ! And when was the last time you saw a dog getting a round in at the bar ? JohnBonser - 21 Feb 2008 12:58 |
| I assume the two previous comments relate to Lucius (or is it Feargal?) Both have been present every time I've been to the Nightingale, and I must say I think the place would be the poorer without them. Come on, JohnB; you say say yourself that this is one of a 'rapidly diminishing breed' of traditional pubs; weren't dogs always part of the mix? earlydrinker - 4 Jan 2008 16:42 |
| Very enjoyable visit last Sunday lunchtime - sadly this is one of a rapidly diminishing breed of "old school" traditional Youngs pubs. First sighting this year of Youngs Christmas Ale Note the extensive collection of bottled Youngs beers on a shelf high up behind the bar. Thankfully, there weren't any dogs running round being a nuisance on my visit - but I do agree with the sentiments of the previous contributor.In a smallish pub like the Nightingale, they should be left outside, especially when food is being served JohnBonser - 19 Dec 2007 13:04 |
