Ye Old Mitre, Holborn

Was in the mitre last night and had a few wonderful pints of the London Porter!!! If you want some get down there soon. Was very busy as alwasy this time of year but as usual the staff kept on top with there fast and effiecent service!! Uncle John was in good humour as always. While i'm at it i'm gonna put my 2 pence worth in. So mister mikestone you seem to have upset a few people with you remarks about John. It is one thing to critisize a pub in general but another to personally attack a man old enought to be you father, or my grandfather. Its no surprise to me that you have got some peoples backs up. sounds to me you may have a case of sour "Grapes". And to Jay28, I do agree it's a bit over the top but do you really expect people not to retaliate.
Anyway i will continue to enjoy myself here and have great quality food and beer.

Was in the mitre tonight and tried the scottish guest, very good it was too. Was told there will be dark island (One of my favs), will be one soon. Must say i'm glad that the seasonal once a year drinkers have left us regular drinkers to enjoy ourselves again!! The run up to xmas in the mitre was horrendous and i don't know how the staff manage to serve us so quickly, well done to them, and how the manager continually served such good quality beer, the man must have spent all his time in the cellar. on that note may i say mr WilberDaForce are you really that surprised and put out by the staff asking you to put the chairs back. they are big, heavy, very old and expensive and take up alot of room when moved out of place. and as we all know space is the one thing that the mitre hasn't got alot of. its hard enough moving around the pub when busy, let alone squeezing past those chairs. and spare a thought for the satff, god knows how many times they have to move them back into place. anyway, the beer, food and service is as always great and i will be returning soon!!!
