The Princess of Wales, Blackheath

I quite like this place. There is a fair selection of different beers (the now obligatory dark lager, different ales and lagers and a fair selection of Belgium bottled bear)

Bar staff are excellent. Fast and efficient and friendly enough. They served me a cloudy pint and without any prompting they looked at it and said "That doesn't look right", tried again and then declared it off = top marks. My mate ordered a Duvel and they went off to find the right glass.

The decor is pretty good and its got some outdoor seating. Friday and Saturday evening can be lively but not packed and with it being summer there is enough space outside to drink with the heath opposite.

Can't comment on the food but looks a bit pricey - but then what pub aint pricey.

Well worth a visit.
