Richard I, Greenwich

I really like the make over.
This place used to smell like old socks and the beer tasted very like the odour.

The garden is still the best part in the summer and the bar staff seemed very friendly and I liked the ok range of ales they had.

Overall, massive improvement.

The Princess of Wales, Blackheath

I live near this one and one of the bar staff told me last week it was going to change into a 'bistro' in about five months time.
I'm a bit sad about this as the food is not of a high standard and while the beer and service often leave a lot to be desired it's an historic if rather uncared for part of the local landscape.
Would be great if they hired more staff and gave the place a clean up - although the new tables and (small scale) revamp of the god awful toilets was more than overdue and very welcome.
