The Prince Arthur, Windsor

Typed 'best pub to watch the rugby in Windsor' into a search engine and this place came up. Stopped in for the lions match on Saturday morning and the place was as you might expect. Small Fullers pub, clean and pleasant with a few small dogs running about. Managed to get the last couple of seats although it didn't get any busier after that. They only had 2 ales on, one of which pride looks fairly permanent. Nice enough pub and everyone in there (20 or so people) were all watching and enjoying the match.

The Oxford Blue, Old Windsor

While walking around Old Windsor stopped in the Oxford Blue for a pint. Beer was good and we were both perfectly happy, small pub with a pool table and a decent garden and restaurant area. It had been raining, so the barmaid went outside dried off a table and some chairs and provided us with cushions for the seats, so we could sit on the decking area comfortably. The kind of simple decent service that enhanced the experience. Nice pub.

This is the fourth pub we headed to in Old Windsor after realising 2 on the list were a toby carvery and harvester and the other one we walked past was closed for a private function.

The Ship of Fools, Croydon

I wouldn't normally review a Wetherspoons as they are pretty much all the same and not great. However this one I liked as it had on boards hanging from the ceiling the final trains times to numerous nearby destinations. Looking after the welfare of their drinkers.
