The Alliance, South Norwood

A nice pub but it does get its fair share of weirdos. Thankfully most weirdos go to the Wetherspoons across the road but some still find their way in to the Alliance and make it unpleasant for the rest of us.

The new landlord is very good though and the place has come on in leaps and bounds since he took over.

Okay for a quick one (or several if you're already drunk). Nice bar staff but very unpleasant regulars that look upon strangers as treading on their 'patch'. Regulars often get served ahead of not-so-regulars by the bar staff who know that they'll complain if they're not given preferential treatment. It is very clear that the staff are doing this just to avoid confrontation.

The Ship, South Norwood

I agree with the last comment. Definitely the best in the area. I've spent many good evenings here. It has the nicest people and the best character in the area.
