The Prince of Wales, Caversham

Unsure about the two previous comments, but the POW has just reopened after quite a substantial refurb, clean and comfortable and if "theme nights" in the way of a burger deal, DJ, Live Music,Sky or Sunday Roast is from a Nick Love movie then I haven't seen it. No it isn't by the river but it the locals are friendly and as far as I have heard there hasn't been any negative comments about the new look POW, I hope it really works as the staff are attentive and the food is traditional pub fayre and a decent price, well done

Wattenden Arms, Kenley

Sad to see Brian (the manager) go. He kept a good pint of Cask ale and a good pub. By the way, the previous comment is wrong as the person obviously doesn't know who ran the business (Brian must've been cooking in the kitchen at the time of her visit). I feel that Stonegate have done him an injustice, but who am I to tell the people that "know how to run pubs" how they conduct their business. He was very hard working and when he did get a chance to talk to the customers would usually be very funny. I understand that he was sacked due to standards, maybe stonegate should invest in the Wattenden so standards then could be improved and take an initial hit on the wages to allow any manager coming in to manage instead of cooking, cleaning, admin, ordering and anything else that Brian did to keep the Wattenden trading. All the best for the future Brian and I hope that you get employed with a company that actually cares about their employees instead of just profit!!!!!!

The Harrow Inn, Caterham

Always quiet when I have visited, ales good but food expensive and they don't serve all day. Furnishings need updating and the gents toilet has a very strong smell of urine. All in all if you just want a quick pint it's fine but as it has no atmosphere I can't say that I will use it as my local.
