The Nightingale, Wanstead

i feel i have to wade in here too.

i'm not noel, but know who the guy is and i always found him friendly and approachable. he always would say hello to me and the wife. the bar staff's grasp of english was always fine, communication was never a problem. they work hard, they're efficient and they're friendly. what more do you want. some east london scrag screeching "yeah, wot do you want to drink, innit"?

it remains the best pub in the area by a long long way. sadly i think gigalo has another agenda here.

The Old Rep, Ipswich

the only thing stopping this dive from being the worst pub in ipswich (and therefore propbably the world) is Yates' up the road.

and that's the only thing. absolute hole of a pub populated by the worst of chavdom with crap, loud dance music blaring out at a volume that will make your fillings rattle. choose the old rep & lose the will to live.

The Dove, Ipswich

lots and lots of beer. the choice is boggling and the staff are more than happy to oblige with tasters.
sadly the excellence of the dove comes at a price, and that's it's incredible popularity. a great pub to visit when it's not so busy, however during busy periods you may find yourself thinking of going elsewhere.

still it remains one of the best pubs in ipswich.
