Rogues Wine Bar, Guildford

A very friendly pub which is getting better and better. I'm not usually too keen on wine bar type establishments, but this one is the exception. A pint of Otter is regularly available and keeps me happy. Good chat around the bar or plenty space out towards the back if you want it quieter.

They've been doing mulled wine for the last few weeks which has smelled glorious.

For me, Wetherspoons establishments fall into one of two categories: they can be very good; or pretty appalling. This one is very good. There is always a good range of ales (if not on the bar facing the door, then try the bar at the side) which are generally well kept and always at a good price. In keeping with most Wetherspoons they indulge in the practice of keeping the pump clip facing front long after the ale has finished, but that's my only gripe.

The pub gets busy and has a MUCH younger clientele at night especially at weekends, but you can see that before you go in. A good score from me.

The Rowbarge, Guildford

I've been back a few times since it has reopened. It's good to see that the real ale is still up to scratch and that a lot of the innovations made by the previous landlord have been kept going. There are few enough decent pubs in Guildford to afford to lose this one.
