| Yes I agree re the short female manager or assistant manager - whatever their title. No idea about customers. Should be a prison warden from what I have seen. Get another job women before your bossess force you to do so. daisy1 - 28 Jun 2008 01:04 |
| Been in here a few times over the past week, so I've seen a bit more of the place. The bar staff are so mixed - there are some really nice people working there, but some absolute arseholes as well. The hobbit they have for a manager really needs to get laid or something, she's fierce. And that fat barman with the imperious, sneering attitude - dude, it's no surprise to see you with a black eye... I've seen two fights recently. One gang decided to beat up some white haired old dude. Give him his due, the old timer stood his ground and gave back as good as he got, told the police all about it later with a smile on his face - hat's off to that tough old bastard. The other one was standard pub scrapping, you know, drunk guys bashing each other with chairs, that kind of thing. I did have a pretty good burger one evening though. DaveMere - 21 Apr 2008 18:46 |
| rubbish. slooooow service and diabolical food. mikeyn - 21 Mar 2008 21:49 |
| Typical Wetherspoons, just the same as any other in the country. It's pretty cheap, on a Monday you're talking £1.75 a pint, which would be good even outside of London. Flip side of this is that there's a fair number of weirdos in there. Last Monday some midget bloke in a Inter Milan shirt started singing Beach Boys hits to me while I was at the bar. "Best band in the world mate, best band in the world." he chirruped as he danced. What else? Service for food is pretty crap, but the grub itself is ok, and the beer's not bad. There is a tiny assistant manager who's a bit of a dragon, especially when last orders draws near. Then again, if I had to deal with all those oddballs I might be sucking a lemon as well. Think of it like a no-frills boozer, all the overheads cut out to bring prices down. EasyPub, perhaps. DaveMere - 19 Mar 2008 18:07 |
| A typical 'Spoons pub - it could be replicated 100x over across this Green and Pleasant Land. I went in around 18 months ago, when I was in that part of London. I thought it had a slightly threatening atmosphere - there were cantankerous old boys in there who had been in there since 11am (I was there around 8pm). The place had changed since I used it on a regaular basis (1995-2003). I used to study and work at Roehampton University (then Institute) and most of workers there were students and staff (as Jim says below) . A lot of the regulars were also 'faces' at the Grid in Southfields so there was also a friednly atmosphere due to that. One or two used to get drunk out of their heads (especially and old Black geezer whose name I have forgotten),but they were not threatening. Things have obviosuly changed since then judging by my experience and the latest revies. A shame. RIP THe Railway. wbafc_beer - 21 Dec 2007 18:56 |
