The last reviewer here spoke of potential and of how much better this place could be. I know how good it could be because I remember it when it was one of the best pubs in London for anyone wanting real ales and plenty of them. It was called The Sun in those days, more handpumps than you could shake a stick at around a central horseshoe bar. Drink one of each and you got some kind of prize, I seem to recall - although I never did.

Why would anybody in their right mind choose to go here rather than The Lamb just down the street? Not actually unpleasant but just such a nothing place. Beer choice unimaginative and bar staff, although not rude, did seem to pefer their own company to chatting to the customers.

Plenty of potential and could be so much better in the right hands.

Nice pub but don't bring your bike there! My friend had his cycle nicked last night from the lock-up railings just opposite the Perseverance - the railings were rigged to be loose (in hind sight) and 2 fellas sped up on a moped, slid the railings out of their holder and drove off with the bike across the passenger's shoulder. Why am I posting this on here? To warn other cyclists of the scam and also because this had clearly happened before and the bar staff didn't care at all. They couldn't care less. Please put a sign up to warn people, it's the least you can do to stop your customers being repeatedly fleeced.

It's so obvious when new owners or bar staff post comments. Anyway, I've been a away for a few months and returned to my favorite pub for a drink with mates the other night. Actually, the negative comments were spot on: the staff (why's it always the blokes who collect glasses???) was abrupt and couldn't wait to close before last call, the only refurb seems to be some stereotypically pub Ebay wallpaper, and the once interesting menu's been reduced to non-descript pub grub. Wish the old management had been able to stick it out. If anyone knows if they have a new pub, post it!
