| My pint of London Pride cost £5.60 and lost it's condition quickly (although it tasted good). Too busy for me to appreciate any of the architectural features although I was served immediately. paul_d102 - 2 Jul 2022 10:52 |
| Fullers Pie and Ale barn of a place. Friday night and overrun by those that hadn't yet gone from from work and those that were making a night of being drunk and lairy. The bar staff couldn't cope - poor service at bar, tables all dirty. Like a Wetherspoons, really. Mappiman - 1 Mar 2020 12:32 |
| Went in for a couple of jars today after a nose around the market. Great pub with very well appointed interior. Only had the guiness as am not a fan of fuller ales, but was nice enough. Worth a visit if in the area. TommyRogers1979 - 27 Dec 2012 22:15 |
| Just came back from meeting my husband for lunch. Ordered a sausage sandwich and cheese and biscuits. The waiter, after about 15 minutes informed me that they had no biscuits - just french bread. After another 15 minutes I went and asked the girl (manager?) behind the bar how long our food might be as I only had an hour for lunch! She told me she had just rung them. No apology. Another 5 minutes and lunch turned up - minus any cutlery for my husband, minus chutney which is supposed to come with cheese and biscuits. Tomato Sauce and Mayo were brought to the table - new tomato sauce wouldn't come out of bottle and mayo still had seal on the jar. I suppose that did at least show it was Heinz! Not a good visit - have been here for lunch on quite a few occasions over the past 5 years and it's pot luck what sort of service you get - won't be going back. ETCGC - 29 Mar 2011 13:59 |
| Decent range of quality beers, the pub is on two levels which is common with many Fullers pubs near The City.Most times I've visited its tended to have its fair share of the suited. EdgarBriggsMI5 - 7 Mar 2010 10:14 |
