The Woolpack, Banstead

Personally I've always liked the Woolpack after John the old guv (from Sunderland) left. You get some v friendly staff there, for instance Shrek was great for a laugh especially when his beloved Sunderland was on tv. I haven't been there since Xmas (I live in Newcastle now) but I'd definitely suggest it as a place to go. Good collection of friendly regulars and some great bar staff who are always friendly. The food is pretty good, wished they'd kept the sky for the football but other than that its brilliant.

The Robert Peel, Kingston Upon Thames

Generally its a great place to go for the music. PA is good, bar staff generally pretty friendly (unless they think you're u18). Fact is the Peel is definitely first and foremost a music venue, its not worth going for if you just fancy a quiet pint etc.

The Faraday, Epsom

Don't worry my name might suggest I'm a Burberry bastard but I prefer 70's rock so no worries.

For me the Vestry can be summed up in 3 easy words: Crowded Shite Hole. Its full of Chavs especially on a friday night. Its expensive and smokey. You can't hear a bloody word because the music is turned up to 140 decibels. Really the worst of Epsoms not particularly finest.
