The Marquess of Anglesey, Covent Garden

As per the other reviews, I got served dodgy Youngs beer here. I pointed it out to the unhelpful bar staff and surly manager, and they refused to give me a different pint in exchange. The manager is a joker, who attempted to bamboozle me by showing me the operation of the barrels in the basement. All this managed to show was that behind the scenes the hygiene isn't great. This pub is one for the tourists (ie, people that won't come back anyway, so might as well serve them tripe) and I would recommend avoiding it and going to the large number of other decent pubs round the covent garden area.
