The Tooting Tram & Social, Tooting

Went in Saturday after it opened. Really liked the place, perhaps not for everyone as at night reminded me of the horrors silent hill and th phot of the japanese chick on the wall which follows you round reminded me of the ring. Looks like they will ales on tap. Bar staff were friendly enough. The place was quite full music was good mix of ska/reggae and indie. Perhaps a bit loud for a quiet drink tho. I'll be back for a visit. I am a bit turned off by crebs antics below tho.

The Long Room Bar and Hotel, Tooting

For many a year I have moaned to anyone who will listen about how it would be good if someone took over the Mitre and did it up as it had huge potential as was currently the closest boozer to my house. So I was excited when I saw the building works taking place at the start of last month. I finally made it in there this weekend for a couple of quiets and they have done a good job still a pub I reckon but bordering on wine bar (others may argue). My main gripe is that there are no real ales on tap (although there are 15 or so lager taps) and at �3.50 for a bottle of abbot ale; it will be an expensive evening out for ale drinkers. Until this problem is solved I will have to take the hike to the Selkirk or the king�s head I think apart from times when I am at my laziest. 6/10 for the moment but a couple of real ale pumps would tip it to a 7 or 8.
