BRB at The Gate, Alexandra Park

I also first went to The Gate in 1999. Loved it when it was transformed into the BRB version earlier in the decade and yes, the bar staff were great in those days. It could take a while to get served but as those employed by the pub were so pleasant I didn't mind so much. The quiz nights on Wednesdays then were usually very good. It has gone downhill a bit in the last couple of years and I enjoy going there more in the afternoons when there's not so many people around than in the evenings. Would be great to have the good old days of in the early noughties back but it probably also belonged to that particular period in my life. A once great pub in my opinion.
