The Bobbin, Clapham

Live just round the corner and the Bobbin is a great boozer for a quiet evening pint with friends. Totally agree about it being a proper pub in a sea of identikit establishments.

Sunday lunch normally pretty good, hearty helpings of roast meat but the last time I was there the beef was very fatty. Perhaps reduce the portion size and increase quality?

But overall, a great little pub.

The Rake, London Bridge

Nice bar area although a bit small and the outside garden is a gem (although why is the umbrella up now it's almost Summer?) But the bar staff have to take the award for most pretentious beer snobs I've ever come across. Fair enough you don't serve Stella - but if someone asks for it don't address them as if they've just crapped on your living room carpet! Pork pie is good too.
