All Bar One, Sutton

anon:

Feel I have to come back after your comments. The reason we wanted to go in the empty pub was more because of the thunder and lightning, a safety issue, rather than to avoid a bit of drizzle.
As for the'under-21's policy' - we weren't really after a new local, just shelter from the storm. It is exactly that sort of unhelpful, 'computer-says-no' attitude that I was berating.

Some of the staff were being helpful, but then you could call things like offering shelter basic common decency- a given, rather than something special.

It is all by-the-by now, anyway, though I can't see how you can go a site such like this and criticise 'unfair comments' - the site is full of moaning about watery beer, dodgy clientele, rude service -it is a positive whinger's paradise.

But if you want impartial views I'm sure there are official guides to these places -personally I would rather hear about real people's experiences, whether I agreed with their views or not.
I myself think ' a fantastic selection of beer and wine' as you describe, would include a Guinness, which you seem to be able to get everywhere else in Sutton, but that is just my view, we'll have to agree to differ.
