The Sun Inn, Englefield Green

We were in the Sun Inn for new year 2011/12 in the afternoon and night. Lovely, warm, small crowd. Management and locals could not have been more friendly. Simple food, but served promptly and not expensive. Good selection of beers, but this is really somewhere to visit for the atmosphere. Worth stopping if you are in the neighborhood.

The Captain Kidd, Wapping

Under new management as of early Feb 2012. (The previous managers walked out, apparently.) The new landlord & lady are very friendly and experienced in the pub trade, which is reassuring - this is a great pub which deserves better than it's had for a while.

Lovely spot on the river, great views, good selection of Smith's beers (the Taddy Lager was good, the Stout better). Food served in the large, atmospheric dining room on the 1st floor - hearty pub fare, not expensive and very flavorsome. The "observation deck" top level is soon to be re-opened, which will make for a great drinking hideaway.

Good atmosphere as always, but seems a bit brighter and friendlier than in the past. We will be going back.
