The Thomas Willingale, Chingford

Credit where credit's due..following on from my earlier review last year, this pub has now completely up'd its game, it has vastly improved, bar staff efficient and friendly, pub clean, food good and competitively priced, we now have a good solid local pub which I can recommend to anyone....quite a change from my first review..but to be fair they have turned it round.

The Thomas Willingale, Chingford

This pub is called 'The Station House', not The Thomas Willingale anymore. It is positioned accross the road from the station in North Chingford, this part of chingford is generally upmarket with quality restaurants, the forest and golf course being nearby...but I'm afraid for me this pub lets it down. It's bland, unimaginative and lacking in any style, whilst the service is friendly..I could do without the use of the 'F' word from the barmaid in every other sentence! In the early evening hundreds of city workers come pouring out of the station over the road..but they don't come in here and I'm not surprised..what a missed oportunity for the owners of this pub! If it gets any worse I will be worried it will adversely affect local house prices!
