The Nags Head, Walthamstow

A latish Saturday evening visit and both the London Pride and the Timothy Taylor Landlord were in excellent condition, plus three more handpumps being busily employed by the friendly bar staff! The partially canopied garden with its heaters and several tables provides a welcoming spot for smokers and non smokers alike. The interior was harder to assess due to its popularity, but service was swift and welcoming despite the large demand for attention from what seemed to me a cheerful and enthusiastic bunch of customers.

Ye Olde Talbot, Worcester

Went in over Easter weekend. Vey busy, good Greene King Abbot & IPA plus Ruddles Best as a guest ale.Service friendly and fast in spite of staff covering bistro and hotel duties as well. Tasty food good value - comfortable seating and outside courtyard. All in all a pleasant experience.

The Goldengrove, Stratford

Continues to provide good service, even if a bit slow. Clientele and staff are friendly and the gaeden's a great spot in the summer. Like many JDWs a fine collection of historic,local photographs. I've had pints there that weren't to my taste - cask covers such a wide range of flavours - but never a badly kept beer.
