The Starving Rascal, Stourbridge

Wonderful pub driven past by many, frequented by few. Has its own car park in Collis Street so stop and go in. Knowledgeable land lord keeps his real ales (4 or 5) in top condition. Comfortable bars. Appears to make a thing out of its range of whiskies but that is a closed book to me. Go out of your way to call in.

New Inn, Stourbridge

Pleasant pub tucked away in old Stourbridge. Good choice of real ales. Pleasant, friendly clientele. Unfortunately the bar maid (who is obese) lacked training in most aspects of her duties.

The Warrington Hotel, Maida Vale

There are four hand pumps but all with high alcohols beers meaning caution is called for if drinking other than late evening. Carpets need vacuum cleaning followed by professional attention. Table tops need cleaning. If you plan to eat , check the rating on the Government's "Scores on the Doors" site first, unfortunately they do not display their rating. I would not eat here but presumably plenty of people do.
