The Barley Mow, Cox Green

Went there for the first time this evening, for a quiet pint after a long day's work. London Pride was excellent and staff were friendly enough while I was paying them for my beer, but otherwise showed no interest - even though I sat up at the bar. Tellingly, they didn't even bid me a good evening when I left. I would say that this place has the potential to be very good but it felt to me a bit like an estate pub, where you need to be known. Seven out of ten, and would have been five if not for the excellent beer.
