The Peacock, Tower Hill

An avid darts player, I have decided to comment of all the Pubs I have played in recently.

This I would say is a true darts venue. Great (Blade 3) Boards (4), all well presented and lit, each fitted with Winmau Electronic Scoring. We had spent some time here and were disappointed when the staff pointed out there was a match starting at 6, fearing the worst we started to pack up, until the staff pointed out that there where more boards upstairs and even helped us carry out chattels and goods. A lovely little games area is to be found on the first floor, well lit and equipped.

It was good to see some local ale on the bar, which it must be said was delightful and cheap for the area, also and not the norm for the area, Ringwood Best Bitter, which was in excellent form. CAMRA discounts are available too, though not too well advertised! The only remark I can make of the previous posts is we found the staff lovely, helpful and all speak English, whilst we did not try the Doom Bar, having had it elsewhere, did PJH just hit the end of the barrel and not have the foresight to point it out?

All over one of the best venues we had been in. Welcoming, exceptionally clean, though a bit of paint here and there would not go a miss. Great ales at good prices and as the evening wore on, as others have said, it just got busier and busier.

Ye Three Lords, Aldgate

Nearly not worth a comment. But, No, No, No. Never again. Overpriced and a dreadful pint.

The Ship, Tower Hill

An avid darts player, I have decided to comment of all the Pubs I have played in recently.

Couldn�t actually see the Board, someone pointed out that it is upstairs, but the staff were rather unwilling to allow us to use it. Why bother having it?

Reasonable enough beer, expensive though a pretty average selection, nothing which grabs you.

All in all, an OK little place, though as has been said before, they could clean up more often.
