The Hare and Hounds, East Sheen

Refurbed a couple of years ago and I like the changes. Good range of Youngs and guest ales, usually well kept. The food isn't bad either, standard upmarket pub fare but usually tasty and well enough prepared. Fantastic beer garden too, which is great with the kids in the sunshine. The only real drawback is the incredibly rude Kiwi landlord and landlady. Last night was the latest example of this when I witnessed, once again, the landlord speak to a family in an unbelievably rude and inappropriate manner. I object to having to witness this type of behaviour by licensees as, firstly the paying punters pay their wages. Secondly I'm sure that this constant aggressive attitude will lead to trouble at some point. Which is a pity as this could be a great pub. Come on Youngs - recoup your investment and provide anger management training for the landlord or fire him!
