The Royal Albert, Crystal Palace
The beer could be better.
But, to be honest, a welcoming pub by both the staff and the punters.
Unfortunately, there's not a lot up at Crystal Palace these days.

No atmosphere but generally good service.
Toilets are far better than the one on the station.
Better than many.

I'd like to describe this place as a sh+t hole but it's not that good.
Closes early.

The Lord Moon Of The Mall, Whitehall
Certainly one of the best of these places.
Good beer, quicker but not quick service. Food edible, unlike some in South London (and probably elsewhere)
Toilets clean but take your own paper.

A below average Wetherspoon although the staff are more friendly than many. Have you ever met anybody that has participated in the �Award-winning Training�? Although it doesn�t seem so, the clientele are mostly friendly.
Ideal if you want to consume copious quantities of reasonably-priced beer. As usual, stay well clear of the Guinness - where do they get this stuff from?
Unfortunately, your consumption of copious quantities of the reasonably priced beer means that sooner or later a visit to the toilets is necessary.
Alas, if you thought the pub was bad you shouldn�t be too surprised by the state the toilets. Tim Martin publishes a bloody great magazine each month praising Wetherspoon�s wonderful toilets - does he need to piss? Or is there a private one for Tim?
I probably don�t need to tell you this but somebody has to counteract Tim�s �spin�. They are dreadful! How often they are cleaned is anybody�s guess. The staff manage to avoid this onerous task by not bothering to inspect them. For some reason it�s nobody�s job.
Manager, it�s your job - get it sorted!

I suggest that you ignore the pub�s current low rating, which includes reviews from the pub before it was in the hands of the current owner.
An interesting pub with good beer and polite and efficient staff.

A nice conversion with bar billiards, table footie and a pintable. Thankfully no television or fruit machines. Comfortable with good service and a nice atmosphere.
Before The Merchant, the only decent pub around here was The Falcon.
Good choice of well-kept beer but a tad expensive.

The Tamworth Arms, Croydon
One of the better things about Croydon.
