The Crown and Sceptre, Kensington

I have reviewed this pub twice before and still have more praise to give. Have been drinking in this area for years and this pub has had the best guest beers bar none. 3 Different 'Old Ales' in feb, 2 milds and 2 porters. Have not seen Old Ales in w14 before. I did get to try 4 of the Harvey's ales they had on offer during the month and look forward to trying the Hogsback Spring and HBB (formerly Hair of the Hog?) that the landlord told me were coming soon.

Despite claiming to have got an award for its beer this pub has not got the consistency of either the crown & sceptre or the radnor. Even their cider tastes like it has not been cleaned in months. No pride in their pride!!

This pub has the best varying real ale range in the neighbourhood. The beer is always in top form. As it is so close to the train station it is a great after work stop. The evening menu has a genuine mexican flavour (2-4-1 on saturday) which I enjoyed with a pint of burton bridge damson porter. Still a great pub that everyone who likes real ales should visit. Nice and clean as well.
