The Spotted Dog, Willesden Green

I have come to this place a bit lately, and there seems to be improvements in the friendliness of the staff there. Having no food there seems to be a little strange considering that just about every pub in London does! That aside, the atmosphere seems to be changing with people from many places over the world. I have met Eastern Europeans, Irish, English and of course the Antipodean crowd!

Downstairs at the Sindrome, although parts are rough the dj's and the bands seem to be improving and there has been some big nights there! Some work needs to be done in the toilets though. My partner refuses to go for this reason!

The sports on the TV's appears to be aimed mainly at the Antipodean crowd. If you are going to show English football you need to have Prem+. Can't just have some of the games and not all of them!

The manager has mentioned that there is a refit of the pub in January. If it all goes as well as expected, this place should be rocking and breathing some well needed new life into the old dog! Lets hope we can see it back to it's former glory.
