The Eagle, Shepherds Bush

If you are ever in the need to be disabused as to the the merit of a bar, this is one.

expensive and poor - slavish and mercenary - smug and witless

The conceit is that there is quality service and product.

Go there and laugh.

The Packhorse and Talbot, Chiswick

Dismal. I don't think anyone cleans the beer lines, the lavatory is constantly awash, they had run out of tonic and the staff all look bored.

The food is indifferent at best and the price of beer is ridiculous, considering you get to drink it to the constant sound of whining, foul-mouthed old men - and even then their symphony for sputum is better than the music on offer.

I like this place. They have a balance between yuppie f**kwits and foodies and people who just want a drink or two. They try hard to fit us all in.
