Moby Dick, Surrey Quays

I think some of the previous reviews are somewhat unkind. The view over Greenland Dock is great and the beer is good. I've always had good experiences there, especially on warm summers days sitting out front.

The Fox and Grapes, Wimbledon Common

This a top rank pub. Although not a regular (I don't live close enough), I've gone here on a regular basis over the last 4 years. It has to be considered as a partner to the common, not as an idealised country pub. The atmosphere is friendly with a diverse clientele, (locals with their dogs, young families, couples,etc.) all drop in for food and drink after an relaxing walk on the common.

The food is always very good and ventures well beyond the tradition pub cuisine. The beer (I don't drink lager) was only OK, I was expecting it to be better kept given that the pub is always busy.

All in all a good experience.
