Well, £20 for a burger and a pint of lager doesn't sound much like my sort of thing, but the opportunity to do a bit of scientific research in the urinals is almost too good to turn down.

Big sigh of relief from Graham here, as the Theakstons Best runs out just in time.
I don't know how Steve was planning on "testing his todger" in those Sheffield letter box toilets, nor do I know how many "customers of the male variety" it takes to put toilet facilities under...
Spem in Alium is a choral work by Thomas Tallis. Apparently the phrase in Latin means "hope in any other", or perhaps "there must be a decent pub *somewhere* in this godforsaken hole". (If you read...
"This isn’t somewhere I’ll be visiting again anytime soon."
So, not that interesting after all. :)
Yes, nice one from Oggy. But I see the pub has changed hands, so surely time for a revisit? :evilgrin:
A nice riposte here from the late Alan Winfield, replying to a review by adam bell in which he seems to have run out of punctuation, with catastrophic consequences.
The Boy & Barrel, Mexborough:

As luck would have it, I drank a half of the same beer last Saturday. It was "actually drinkable", as I wrote in my review. I can't even see this beer on the bar without thinking of Alan.
Just seen a recent (well, two months old) review by oldboots of the Royal Children in Nottingham; good timing as I will be in that city on Tuesday for a Luton Town game. Will definitely give this one...
Thanks for highlighting those.
Al Bundy: "Your missus/girlfriend/bit on the side will love it."
ROB Camra: "My missus/girlfriend/bit on the side hated it."
Excellent.
:D indeed.
"This was probably the best bar in Dalston, but I won't hurry back - rating: 5"
Liked this one from Brainypool at Café René in Gloucester:
Quirky. Calls itself ‘le pub’, has wine bottles covering the walls, French posters everywhere. It simply has to be tongue in cheek,...
Thanks to ROBCamra for his suggestion that I visit this one (when circumstances allow): The Hatters Arms
It is indeed on my to-do list, being on Camra's inventory of historically important...
Puns are meant to be awful. That's how you know it's a pun.
Have I missed something? "CAMRA yoghurt-knitters who like a selfie while clogging the bar with their hour-long half" - is that a thing? ...
Excellent. You couldn't make it up.
Nice one, centurion. Like it.
"I will be coming agin next week with more of my friends and telling everyone about this finden little gem."
Is he by any chance one or two ingredients short of a quality cocktail?
You're probably right, Jim. :rolleyes:
Maybe it's just that he's taller than me?
Yes, but I would like to know how the review dated 26th July 2018 read before Quinno's suggestion that Al Bundy be requested to tone it down. If the "soft lad" behind the bar told him to "feck off...
Moi?! Shome mishtake shurely.
That quote makes me shudder every time I see it, even though I've no idea what a red arrow might be. (Obviously nothing good.)
"I had just scored my two-millionth red arrow on the Daily Mail's comment threads, and so I was in the mood for a modest celebration.". OMG Chequers Inn
OK, I need some help here. I'm obviously not on the same wavelength as the guy who wrote this review. Was it his own wife and daughter who wanted him to sort the pub team out because they were being...
If you want it to mean that, then of course it does!
What it actually says is that I couldn't find the same enthusiasm for the place that you did, and that when I was there I found the beers to be...
Ray's description of the desks in the Real Ale Classroom made me chuckle. Looks like they did anatomy before doing reading and writing at Ray's school...
