The Fox, Hanwell

This could be a very good pub, but my girlfriend and I were treated with the most appalling rudeness when we paid a visit on Sunday. We sat at virtually the only table that wasn't reserved for lunch, but after ordering a few drinks and something to eat, we were asked to move as there was another couple waiting for lunch. There were no other tables inside, so we were told to go to the "shed" outside, that was apparently, heated. However, this was full of smokers, and my girlfriend is asthmatic, so the only option we were left with was sitting outside in the cold on a chilly November day!! Possibly, we surmised they objected to out appearence amongst what was quite a well-to-do middle class crowd (I have long hair/earings and my girlfriend has purple-blonde hair and multiple piercings), but do the management of The Fox really believe this is an adequate way to treat paying customers, whatever they look like?

The Old Coffee House, Soho

One of my favourite bolt holes in Soho. Has a really cosy feel, and the beer is always good. Staff are pretty friendly too.

The Horse and Well, Woodford Wells

Essentially a creche that serves beer
