The St Brides Tavern, Blackfriars

Good efficient service, but very expensive food, �15 for a wrap some chips and pint! Give us a beak - How about some cheap lunchtime offers - This is a recession after all! 5/10

The Punch Tavern, Fleet Street

Lay Off People!!!

I work around the corner from the pub, and visit quite regularly. They have really great home-cooked meals for a fiver at lunchtimes, well kept ales and pretty good service. OK the place is looking a bit tired and could use a lick of paint, but the food is very good and my work even order sandwiches from here on special occasions, that are also pretty damned good too. My rating is: 7.7 out of 10, a bit of a spruce up and I'd give it an 8 maybe an 8.5 even and believe you me, I've been to a lot of pubs over the years, especially in this area!

The Flask, Highgate

Had my birthday drinks here last Sunday and couldn't have asked for more - Great Service (including a potted history of the place) - Warming atmosphere next to the fire (complete with mulled spices) - Great winter food & ESB, Honeydew & Discovery on tap. Ever since the beginning of the year, when this place was taken over by Fullers, it has gone from being an above average 7 to a stonking 9.75! Only marked down for the price of the roast, a little expensive I feel at �12.50, but this isHighgate Village after all. What a place - We'll be back very soon I hope!
