The Royal George, Charing Cross Road

brilliant venue for an alternative night. music policy is great - no crappy chart hits!
food is basic but good quality - the burger i had was huge!
wide selecion of beers all clean and well looked after.
the only problem is that the bar is tto small for the busy times. sometimes you can wait for ages, especially on a friday night full of office crowds.

all in all a refreshingly different pub for central london.

The Sun In Splendour, Notting Hill

Have been popping into the Sun regularly for the past 5 years, and for the first time the staff seem friendly! On my last visit in 2006 there was a miserable manager and even more miserable staff. It is the best pub in the area, no question. What it lacks in size it makes up for in personality.
The beer is well looked after, the guy working told me that they have just recieved a cask marque, and reasonably priced for Portobello. Food is good, if a little uninspired, and service is fast, even when busy (due to the size of the pub, one suspects). DO NOT MISS THE GARDEN - very secluded but beautiful.
