Ah yes; hangin' with the hoes.

Not me either. I assume they must have been bottle-only as I never saw their beers stocked in Oxford pubs, despite frequent recent visits.

Nice one! :cheers:

Currently working my way through the area. Outside SE1, quality pickings are thin. In SW postcodes, I hope you like Young's Original/Special! ;)

The Three Pigeons - Error 404.

Ta.

22 new visits this month with 13 above average, helped along by Cambridge:

The Alexandra Arms
The Barley Mow
The Cambridge Blue
Duke of St Albans
Champion of the Thames
The Eagle
The Elm...

I should hope so!

Otherwise, an uneventful week:

Bluestone - Red of Heaven **½
Harvey’s - Sussex Best **
London Brewing - 100 Oysters Stout **½
Mad Squirrel - Unity 🤢
Mayflower - Session...

Never mind the kids, the adults can be just as bad in 'spoons, especially watching noisy sports' fixtures or having FaceTube conversations with their mates.

Redefining the Swift half?

Brilliant! :notworthy:

Amazing how things can turn on a coin: I popped into the Wenlock two nights ago and it was a sea of tranquility but the Old Fountain was now just too noisy for me; it seems some of these 'quiet'...

Not much:

Arbor – Mosaic ½
Dark Star - Hophead **½
Five Points - Pale **½
Thornbridge - Grand Purposes **
Timothy Taylor - Landlord **½
Wimbledon - Wilberforce Blended Ale ½
Windsor &...

Can't log in on MS Edge; I get a 403 error code. :confused:

Yes. Just the sort of bad luck I had in Reading's Nag's Head. :p



I'll speed things up by going tomorrow or Sunday as it'll be rammed tonight.

Hmmm. Not been in for a while, seduced by the offerings in south-east London [not]. I'll give it a go soon; I do think they have a minimum pricing policy though, thereafter price matching ABV, so...

BF at The Rochester Castle (JD Wetherspoon) -

The cheap drink and food options do attract a strange mix of older customers and a large table of over 70 men did emit an unfortunate reek,a seating...

The staff can be a bit goofy - especially the Frances Rossi-alike - but I don't see any other problems with the place.

London Tavern - a map link, ultimately.

Ta.

A change of what?

Obviously 'spoons having fitted Burstcatch locks to all their doors are finding them too burst proof.

Ok.

If I were a publican there are certainly a shed-load of clips which I wouldn't allow to line my bar; I can only think that most of these date back to at least the 1980s. But Naked Ladies is the name...

Kilburn Bridge - now called Kilburn Bridge; new link added.
