I've only been to two so it'll have to be The Baum or The Healey
So The Baum it is then.
Hoping for more choices in May.

A pub is for life not just for Christmas
Good thread !
The Wharf Inn
A very pleasant garden bordered by the babbling brook of the Warwickshire Avon and at the terminus of the Welford Arm of the GU Leicester Line.A lot of thought has gone into this garden by the publican.A large shed houses quality real ale on stillage and there are enough young barmaids to ensure swift service,no need for app ordering ,nor any long waits which is the case when ale is brought from the insides of a pub out of bounds to customers.
There is also a large tent with each end open to meet Covid requirements with some electric heaters suspended above the tables if the weather turns inclement.The only fly in the ointment was an 8pm closure during the week,but takeout containers were provided free so that drinking could carry on ,on aboard.

Ha! I've walked this stretch many times during lockdown, usually nearing midnight. Last night on the approach from King's Cross, I decided to bypass this stretch and walk just to the north through Somers Town - a bit of a mistake, I think that Euston Road and all its horrors is preferable. There's hardly any traffic, but some of the guys out here at night are a lot more intimidating than aggressive beggars.
Superb beer garden at the Nags Head Reading now. It has been proposed this pub is Camra Pub of the Year material previously but I have thought its great for beer but the scuffy toillets and the marque in the carpark let it down.With the garden upgrade and the nicer toilets I reckon this is a possibility assuming the garden area is part of the judging of the POTY.Anyway great improvement on an already great pub.
Four different pub gardens this month including The Nags Head a couple of times but I have to give it to The Wonston Arms with some great work on the garden including a bar you can sit at on barstools, table service made almost bearable as well.

A weekend in Leeds provided the Cuthbert Broderick Wetherspoons, Revolution de Cuba, and Chaophraya - real ale followed by cocktails followed by wine! So only one contender really
