This was our 3rd venue of a pub crawl in Romford. Its clearly a music themed place and I felt had quite a good vibe about it. There were a few old chaps at the bar generally shooting the sh1t and loud music playing which wasnt quite in keeping with the clientele at first, but then changed a bit to be more appropriate. I had a good look on the walls as there is a lot of music and football memorabilia, mainly centred on Tottenham and West Ham for football, and all kinds of music but there was a particular section that focused on the music I love, Madness, The Specials, The Jam, Sham 69. Even a few Quadrophenia photos. The drink selection was like everywhere in Romford: no real lager options but you just adapt. Seemed a friendly enough place with a pool table (I HATE blue clothed tables) and Id happily go back pompeyron - 30 Mar 2015 09:22 |
This pub is awful. BAND'S BEWARE!!!:- We played this pub and Michelle(?) refused to pay in full after the gig. If you've got bookings here, get something in writing or don't do it, her reasons for not paying were complete drivel. Completely un professionsl, and to be honest.. it's not a worthy gig!!!!! Spread the word, many bands have already been made aware of this in the area. DirtyWafer - 9 May 2011 08:44 |
Not hearing anything good about this pub. Would not trust the Landlady as far as I could throw her. gilberto - 5 Oct 2008 18:05 |
Some colleagues and I, having had a lovely curry on a Friday night popped in here for a nightcap. It reminded me of the pub in 'Shameless': there was a terrible karaoke going on, monopolised by some of the more unsavoury regulars.Everyone in there was 'bladdered' and very loud, and the beer was crap. I wondered whether I should ask for a couple of 'es' when I ordered a round. Families welcome? Not unless you want them knifed or something! HornchurchJohn - 11 Sep 2008 10:22 |
Gone downhill rapidly under the new manglement. Either it seems to be full of chavs or middle-aged wannabe chavs, or totally dead, even on a Saturday night. Unpleasant atmosphere and unpleasant open-plan decor which makes you feel very exposed. It was 10x better in the previous incarnation with cosy pub-style decor. "Family's welcome", it says in the window, which just about sums it up. McIntosh - 1 Sep 2008 12:45 |
