| Nicholson's with five real ales and Westons Old Rosie. On Friday night they had Pride, Landlord, Tribute, Bitter & Twisted and Highgate Bee Zone. On 4 levels altogether, they keep the top level as a restaurant, seemed determined not to let anyone up there despite there being no one eating. Ludicrously short pints served that they clearly weren't going to do anything about until prompted. GuideDogSaint - 6 Jul 2008 16:40 |
| Interesting looking pub with a few decent ales on, including some excellent Sharp’s Doom Bar. The ground floor bar has only stools to sit on, so is not particularly comfortable for a relaxing drink. A spiral staircase leads to an upstairs bar with some comfortable seating and which seems to be mainly used as a dining area. I wouldn’t rave about this pub, but it’s a decent enough watering hole and I would definitely visit again if I was in the area. RexRattus - 3 Jul 2008 22:17 |
| Excellent Nicholsons pub with the usual range of guest ales. I enjoyed a pint of "Robin's Ransom" which was a new one on me - very good though. Spacious pub in busy Wigmore Street. Plenty of room inside and out. Spiral wrought iron staircase to upstairs dining area; cellar bar with wrought iron gating downstairs. sussexred - 30 Jun 2008 10:11 |
| This pub is very hit and miss. The lager is sometimes flat warm and in a dirty glass, other times it's fine and reasonably priced for the location. The food (and I have eaten there many times over the years) can vary from one extreme to other. It has often turned up late, incomplete, cold and bland, occasionaly it's great. Often understaffed so a long wait for your order but staff are nearly always friendly. Thieves love this place and a visit will always involve witnessing the distress of a victim. I think despite the naivety and carelessness of some customers in leaving their belongings at risk, the pub could do more. It must be the same gang again and again and CCTV and more vigilant staff could help (maybe a bouncer on the door would recognize regular thieves). No football on TV anymore :-(, rubbish place to put the quiz machine (by door)as well, to be honest I only drink there because it's near work. CheshireCheese - 28 Apr 2008 17:00 |
