The Market Porter, Borough

Went in the Porter last Sunday fort he first time in a year. Didn't realise there's been a refit and the place had expanded. The Harvey's was dreadful, most of the other beers weren't on. nearly a fiver for a panini, no sandwiches as there's no bread delivered on a sunday. Ah and you know the 2 dart boards that are in there, well they're there 'just for decoration' yes I kid you not. In fact when we attempted to play we were told in no uncertain terms not to (despite the fact the place was empty). Face it, it's a chain pub with no character, living off the weekly influx of market punters who have more money than sense and think they're getting a genuine London pub experience because there's wood panelling and hanging baskets outside. I can't believe this palce gets voted best pub on BITE and FAP.com. Do yourself a favour get down the White Hart or the Town House.
