The Jolly Farmer, Weybridge

Funny little place.

The beer is usually in top quality condition which of course is the main thing. But.....for some reason the hand towels in the gents are permanently trapped in the dispenser like some kind of frozen mammoth and the regulars are a bit odd. Not eye spy strangers or anything just a gang of old soaks. Oh and the carpet is well passed its use by date.

The landlord also thinks he's god's gift to inn keeping. He's not. If he was he wouldn't be running a grubby little pub like this.

It�s an honest drinkers pub and it doesn�t pretend its anything else. Which these days is a very refreshing change!

I like it.

The Prince of Wales, Weybridge

Popped in here today for quick jar, the prices are eye watering!

I know this is Weybridge (darling) but �3.90 for a pint of London Pride?

Someone is really taking the proverbial.

The Town Hall Tavern, Chertsey

Decent beer, good atmosphere, pleasant decor and friendly staff.

The gastro pub experiment was ditched a while back since when the couple who run the THT have concentrated on making the place a proper pub again. It's clearly worked as the place is bustling on Friday evenings.

They have started doing Sunday lunches again which is reasonably priced.

This place was in terminal decline a few years back, so its full credit to the management for turning it around.
