The other day I paid £3.00 for a half of Lagunitas IPA keg. Not just a fortune but a king's ransom for this area.
The culprit? Halliford House
Agree.
I think https://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubreviews/22805/ is one of the worst pubs I've ever visited. What wasn't mentioned in my review was my last visit when I was given a pint, topped up from being around a quarter full, which had been sitting on the slops tray. I also neglected to mention the rude service: 'Yeah? What d'ya want?' Does CAMRA receive Little Brown Envelopes from this pub to praise it so highly?
Hear hear, utterly dreadful place, I can't understand why London Camra is so enthralled with a dump that sells carp beer.
On the subject of prices Pedro Broon, well known Camra basher, has an article in the Morning Advertiser defending high prices (before the slagging off starts),

Definitely something fishy going on.
The Wetherspoons at Victoria station has started the beer fest early.£3.55 a pint though.
Not sure if mentioned previously but the Cock Tavern offered an Imperial Stout by "Howling Hops" on draught tonight for £4.00 a third. Before you turn in your graves, this monster was 11.5% and was a rich, complex, dark chocolate beaut and there was more than enough served in the measure it was served in. Yes, a pint would set you back £12, but there's no way you'd want to drink a pint of this (and then carry on drinking!)
