This pub has the most amazing interior, good pint etc. but a bit lacking in atmosphere..

Went here on a busy Thursday night, had rather a good vibe, and a lot better than the typical commercial london pubs in this area, nice pint and very cheap for centre of london.

Greyhound Inn, Staple Fitzpaine
really pretty pub both inside and out, good pint although rather strange that its sussex ale in somerset, but very nice. Has more of a hotel feel and prices to match.

I dont know why this has such a low rating, I would say as a tourist though! this is probably the best pub in cheddar, atmosphere is good, decor is nice and traditional, pints were good, food was good and rather nice and busy.

This really is a traditional pub for locals only, but we were made very welcome by the bar staff and it had a rather good atmosphere in the bar, good pint as well.

Really nice traditional pub with nice friendly atmosphere, good pint and lady behind bar was polite. Food was home made, although if you cannot order from the bar menu, its more fine dinning than oub food. Its a shame its quite a way from the centre as town, as there was only a couple of us there, so very very quiet.

Just popped in here for an afternoon pint, sat outside as great spot for people watching, but that really is about it!!
26 Sep 2009 09:53
Truly awful if going here as a pub, a bit of a laugh if going here as a hotel for a quick drink. There is a large area where entertainment is provided and also another large bar which completly lacks any traditional pub type character, staff how ever where very polite and quick with service considering the numerous punters!!

Only had a quick pint here in the afternoon, bar man was friendly, OK pint, but pub really does lack atmosphere.

Had lunch here, really nice food, good atmosphere and friendly service.

We only went to this pub as everywhere was closed for food middle of a Frdiay afternoon, there was a large group of us and the service was great. We sat upstairs in the eating area, and they were really good and friendly, the ceiling is amazing!

Really liked this place, full of character, bar staff pretty good and a nice pint, good location in lanes as well.

Ye Olde Watling, Mansion House
What a lovely looking pub inside and out, really good friday afternoon atmosphere, an OK pint, but again as with other london pubs staff rather unfriendly and uninterested!

Williamson's Tavern, Mansion House
Went here as part of a pub crawl, and the history/ apearance inside was rather nice and traditional, fairly good service and an OK pint, staff as general with a lot of london pubs these days seemed rather uninterested!
18 Jun 2009 13:55
What an amazing location this pub has, we took an afternoon river boat trip here and cannot really comment on inside the pub as lovely summers day so sat outside all afternoon, but it was great. Whenever we did go to the bar considering it was really busy we always got served rather quickly and staff seemed Ok enough, pint was good, will plan another sunny afternoon here again!
18 Jun 2009 13:50
Rather a rather nice pub, although it is a chain pub, for very foody. Service is good, food is OK, pub decor etc. rather nice, only real downside is they close rather early/ or very prompt...
20 May 2009 14:07
Nice little pub, the front bar has stayed nice and traditional more for standing and chating, we had lunch in back of pub which is a bit too gastro pub but nice, excellent sandwhiches and service was very good. would visit again.
20 May 2009 14:03
Great proper boozer, can get a bit lively on weekend nights, but maintains a friendly vibe, service is OK.
6 Mar 2009 16:48
I really enjoy this pub it always has a good atmosphere, staff are great, very busy though on weekend nights so you need to be patient for a seat, decoratively its a little bit out of the norm, more like a living room but in a good way.
6 Mar 2009 16:46
Went here for lunch rather good plenty of food for the money nice friendly atmosphere with good traditional feel.
6 Mar 2009 16:42
Went here on a lovely sunny day in feburay at lunch time, what an amazing location right on the beach, service was good considering how busy it was, and seems to have a rustic charm in the bar!
26 Feb 2009 09:44
A typical purpose built factory type pub, that said it has a lovely setting by the lake, food and drinks are expensive and staff always seem miserable/ unhelpful, good if you have kids.
24 Dec 2008 11:35
Is now a real gastro pub, food was rather good and service was good as well, nice for a meal if you want a resturant type affair, but for a pint NO
24 Dec 2008 11:30
Really liked this pub we stayed in St Mawes for a few nights and went here every night the staff are great, very friendly and welcoming the food was really good and the atmosphere was great fun, will definatley visit again.
17 Nov 2008 14:21
Did not like this pub at all, although it does have a good location, other than that no good, unless you want a resturant then would probably suit!
17 Nov 2008 14:18
Wow certainly interesting! its like a time warp, staff friendly brewery still going which is really nice, lunch was a bit basic.
17 Nov 2008 14:16
Went to this pub to start my sisters hen night, it was really good, good atmosphere and very buzzy! perfect location and the staff were very friendly, will go again.
17 Nov 2008 14:09
Went here for Friday lunch, which was really nice home made soup and bread, the landlord was rather friendly and the dog was welcome she even got some bits of meat, so must be good, would definatley visit again.
Only one negative which may be a bit unfair as it was a lunch time! but lots of noisy babies in bar area.

The Jolly Tanners, Staplefield
What a great pub, actually went here to finish off a Sunday out for my sisters hen party unlikley location I know! But they do food Sunday afternoon. It was great ! the staff were very friendly and we were given a great table by the fire, all the locals were friendly as well. Roast was brilliant 7 different veg and home made puddings, could not have asked for a better Sunday afternoon, will definately be going back as often as I can..

The Lamb and Flag, Covent Garden
Really liked this pub, very traditional including the landlady had a great atmosphere too! worth a visit..

The Royal Lion Hotel, Lyme Regis
We stayed at the hotel so made good use of the bar, staff friendly did not eat there, always a good pint, for a hotel bar it had rather a nice more pubby feel to it, and nice old woodwork etc..
23 Sep 2008 09:44
Rather like this pub, food was fine, very busy as most pubs are in St Ives, but still maintained a nice pubby feel, rather than just a tourist gastro pub.
22 Sep 2008 16:47
Great old pub, Very busy always, but staff handel that well, food was fine, loved the little booth type arrangement in back bar and also children not allowed after 9pm, only one negative is more a tourist pub than a local..
22 Sep 2008 16:44
What a lovely little london boozer, full of character, did not seem to be a tourist trap. Fab will go again.
4 Aug 2008 11:42
This pub is fantastic full of character, the bar man took us down to the cellar to show us the old prison its was well worth a visit.
only slight negative was it seemed to lack a bit of atmosphere, may just have been me?
4 Aug 2008 11:32
This is such a lovely pub, full of character, really nice, had a sandwhich for lunch, amazing probably the best sandwhich I have ever had! only comment would make is too many children for my liking, but it was a lunch time and does have a hotel attached.
4 Aug 2008 11:25
This many years ago used to be a proper pub! now it is just awful, I think resturants probably have more character, they should have a law to stop this from happening! Terrible..
24 Jul 2008 11:13
Such a shame, this is a lovely country pub with a great interior and the new managements attitude and poor food are distroying it.
24 Jul 2008 10:43
This is a fab country pub, beautiful setting, great beer garden, service was great and the food was lovely, rather exepnsive but the portion was large so can share between two!
24 Jul 2008 10:39
This is one of my regular pubs and its a great proper locals boozer, probably the only decent pub in caterham, No food at the moment which is a bit of a shame, and gets really really busy on a Friday night.
Well worth a pint or two..
24 Jul 2008 10:35
This is a great proper pub, with a lovely homely feel and decor. the new owners are really trying hard and are rather pleasant. the little pub dog adds to the ambience, its also rather nice that no children are welcome, makes a nice change and something of a haven..

The Floating Bridge Inn, Dartmouth
I thought this was a lovely pub, really nice food, service was good, fantastic seating outside by the ferry if the weathers good, worth a visit

The Pilchard Inn, Burgh Island
You cannot beat this place for location, on a summers day outside its brilliant, and a proper traditional pub, just make sure you don't miss the last tractor back to the main land!
24 Jul 2008 09:13
I really liked this pub, its very tradional and had a good atmosphere, decor is very tatty but maybe part of its charm?
24 Jul 2008 09:03
This is a great pub, has live music regularly, service good and nice traditional decor, only problem with this is as its popular some times difficult to get a seat!
24 Jul 2008 08:55
This has always been a very foody pub! but seems to be more like a proper pub these days. staff are very efficient, great beer garden, seperate dinning type area if needed, generally worth a pint, but smells a bit odd!
23 Jul 2008 10:08
The recent refurbishment has made it a very "resturanty" and a bit contemporary for my liking, but there is a small seating area and a couple of open fires, and the staff are really friendly which makes up for it.
23 Jul 2008 10:03
This is a great summer pub the setting and beer garden are brilliant. It is recently under new ownership, they are trying to improve its decilned in the last couple of years, but really do need to sort the food out, although the stone bake pizzas are lovely.
23 Jul 2008 09:53
A great pub mainly due to landlord Warwick and it has a good atmosphere. Service is really good, as is the food, although a bit limited if you prefer more traditional fayre. Dogs welcome, worth a visit.
23 Jul 2008 09:44
This is a lovely pub, I have been using it for many years. Food is expensive but generally rather good, great location, Dogs are really welocme which is great and becoming rare these days, there is a seperate resturant area if needed.
23 Jul 2008 09:34
This is a great little boozer, a rare traditional proper pub. This is my local and its great, now under new management (who is an old time local)they are trying hard to bring it back from the recent bad times. Good pub grub is served, friendly bar service and the locals are not bad either. The garden is currently being restored, and looking rather good, formal dinning room as well, Well worth a try!

The Fox And Hounds, South Godstone
Great proper country pub, staff are rather good, the menu was a bit fussy for us but the landlady was very good and made us a plain ham sandwhich which was great, lovely pub dog and traditional decor.
Just a bit of heating would have made it even better.

What a shame, made a special trip for a friday lunch time drink just based on the lovely external apearance, and what a disapointment inside. It has been totally gutted of any personality even moved table about four times hoping it was just our seating location, thankfully there was a couple of locals at the bar and the service was pretty good.

The Only Running Footman, Mayfair
Very disapointed, if you only want to have a drink in what is meant to be a pub!! you are forced to take one of the very limited stools around the edge of the room, they definately welcome dinners more here!!
