A lot of other people agree with me - this pub is CRAP!! They just can't be bothered reviewing it on this website

Davacc - what kind of name is that anyway? The toilets won't kill you but you get a bug or disease. Did you go for a wee or a poo poo? The toilet paper is one ply and sand papers your hole.

Totally weird pub. Trying to be a bit too cool but failing miserably! Come on - get real. Staff a bit too hip - no not really. Absolute tossers. Avoid at all costs. The atmosphere was tense and pathetic.

Littlecock and Parmesan - grow up please. I am not even sure if you have ever been to this pub or whether you are having a laugh. The sandwiches are awful. Cocktails, especially vodka based ones are very refreshing and better for the sick pack and erection than a flat and warm ale. And toilets are important, especially to the ladies. And women's rights are important you chauvanist pigs. Get your ale swilling snouts out of the sexist beer trough!

I guess Middlebrook owns the pub after a review like that!

Not sure why the nerd brigade are attacking my views. Just go to the pub like I did and you can vouch for my comments. Trust me instead of the anorak brigade or digital camras or what ever else they call themselves.

Okay - based on the reviews by some people I thought I might cream myself in here. Alas that did not happen. Ordered a sandwich and it was absolutely disgusting - the bread felt like soggy cardboard. Then I ordered a long island ice tea and that was awful too - might as well have been sunny D with paint stripper. There is a decent range beer but beer is so 90's. Spirits is the rage now. And I normally comment on the toilets as it's a sign of hygiene, management and patronage. Well these bogs were okay for wee wees but not for poo. The seat was dirty and too low.

Great pub. In my top 47. The Fosters was cold and the crisps were fresh. The staff were smiling at each other - I think they had showered. There were some scantily clad older women and I am sure Wayne Rooney would have paid them a few bob for a pump. The bacardi breezers were awesome.

Well avoid at all costs. Weirdos and homeless people love this run down joint. I am sure the barman was sleeping on the street. Not sure what the fuss is all about.

Too many antipodean dicks on the dancefloor. Avoid unless you want some filthy animal grinding his dirty crotch on your bottom. Very popular with slappers.

This pub was recently on the beebs and it showed the owners making 100 squid between them a night. I decided to see why. I can see why now. Too many ale drinkers that drink one pint per hour - can't taste too good then. You can see why the All Barone's and Slut and Lettuce are taking over. Also this pub attracts the older clientele who are generally stingy. On the plus side the cutlery for my chicken kiew (from Iceland I suspect) was very clean and the staff friendly.

Persona non grata - why a slap? Most of the birds at this pub are very obliging!

Check out the Barley Mow - miles better with Heineken on tap. Also some decent crumpet hanging around.

Good pub but no TVs or pool table is a real let down. Also no salt and vinegar flavoured crisps. The Carling and Fosters tasted pretty flat. Not cold enough too.

Why this obsession with real ale. Surely there are other drinks and other qualities that make a good pub.
22 Dec 2009 10:04
I used to like this pub but it now has those CAMRA nerds talking about the pipes etc. Avoid at all costs now. I can see why the traditional boozer is being destroyed.

Look you idiots. It is just a pub. Don't take life too seriously. As long as the beer is reasonable and the toilets clean with at least 2 ply toilet paper, then that is fine. Peace.

Oh come on you real ale idiots. I went to this pub a few weeks back and it was disgusting .Who cares if there ten types of ale when there is urine all over the floor in the mens?

dozysharp - you are absolutely right about the lack of hygiene.

A really good pub here. All the recommedations are very accurate!!

Very average. People say that this pub has a great range of beers but there is hardly any of the major lager brands with their "super chilled" products. Very disappointing. Who drinks ales anyway - except for geriatrics pretending it is the 60's again.
And why the comments from CAMRA? This pub is not linked with photography is it?
The staff were trying hard but you could sense that even they realised they were fighting a losing battle trying to make this pub appealing.

Another one of those pretentious Hoxton pubs. You know the sort. We are different therefore we are special.
It needs a bit of a makeover too as it does not seem old in a charming way but old in a craggy and decrepit way. But perhaps that reflects the clientele.
I had to go for a dump and there was no toilet paper. I then asked the barstaff for some and they gave me serviettes instead!

I think I saw that gangster that wanted to blow away Stevie G in here. He had his arm's around an assortment of Liverpool's finest ladies. I was more scared of his harem then of him.
The barstaff were very friendly and most of them spoke in pidgeon english which I found easier to understand than the scouser accent.

Yeah not bad. They serve beer and the beer seemed okay. Better than the Wetherspoons stuff which normally tastes off. But there must be something wrong with the pipes as I had the Kenilworth Craps the next day. So a pre-tty standard pub.

I read some of the reviews and decided to check this pub out. It is really crap and the toilet was a paddling pool.....
20 Apr 2008 15:15
too crowded. Place is very popular with slutty retail types from Oxford St jobs looking for middle management suits to shag. so not all bad
12 Apr 2008 15:11
What a brilliant pub this one is. Great location and never gets too rammed. Staff are very gd too.
12 Apr 2008 15:03
Great little pub. Feels like a dive but has thai food. And some of the slappers that come in their around closing time are quality.
12 Apr 2008 15:01
This place is an absolute disaster. And the Aussie and Kiwi patrons are even worse. The scume of these antipodean countries travel to the other side of the globe so that they can congregate with like minded animals that cannot handle their alcohol and then act like right morons. Some of the activities you will regularly see include:
Punters releasing bodily fluids in an inappropriate manner including
faeces (being excreted on the floor)
urine (being released into a pint glass)
vomit
sperm.
And the worse thing is hearing these idiots slagging off England, London and other people. If you don't like it piss off.

Unfortunately I went to this place last week. The pub is an absolute disgrace. Full of some of the most disgusting, foul mouthed and ugly people. And most of them are kiwis and aussies. I guess in NZ and Australia these sorts of pubs must be the norm. I saw one guy taking a crp into a pint glass. The toilets were blocked so he had due cause.

This pub has some exotic cocktails - especially the WKDS! The toilet seat was missing so I had to crap in a squatting position. I was constipated so my thighs were really sore. A good workout though. Great beers.
