The TreeHouse, Barnes

Agree that this is probably more of a restaurant that you can drink at - but I went there with wife and kids last week and the food was fantastic. Would definitely recommend summer lunch out the back in the sun.

Paxtons Head, Knightsbridge

Popped in here for a quick pint the other night. I thought it was more on the grand side than dingy (nice faux? leather benches). Not bad for quiet drink (this was midweek mind) and certainly didn't feel any danger to life & limb per the last punter's comment!

The Hole In The Wall, Waterloo

From the previous comments I was expecting something slightly different to the pub I actually walked into? Breathing was somewhat difficult given the clouds of cigarette smoke (which given my smoker status is saying something!) Toilets were grim - nice damp floor in the mens. Decor is somewhat tired. HOWEVER, this place appears to have something that many other places (especially in this area)
don't have - it seems to be a genuine local pub with all the good connotations that has. So given that, it probably beats an afternoon at All Bar One - unless of course you have the wife with you.

The Red Lion, Barnes

Had dinner here a few nights ago. Can't comment on the quality of the beer sadly (wine with the missus!), however the food was excellent (prawn cocktail - retro yes, but still good plus steak/frites - a nice cut of beef). Service was also "with a smile" - a throughly enjoyable evening. Recommend.

The Brown Dog, Barnes

Went there the other night (a Sunday) - friendly atmosphere. A definite improvement on the last venture on the site.
