The Cheshire Cheese, Temple

Went here during the Jubilee Pageant on 3 June 2012. Packed as you would expect, but with a very good humoured crowd, out to enjoy themselves. Had a choice of Bombardier, Sharps Doombar and Tribute. Had the Bombardier, which was excellent. The couple behind the bar serving the throng were both speedy and friendly - all in all a nice little local pub in the heart of the City.

The Grapes, Hereford

Went here on Saturday Easter lunchtime. Excellent pub food, locally sourced, and a good selection of beers and ciders. Wye Valley seems to be their 'house' beer.

Alto Lounge, Reading

This is a cross between a bar and a bistro. Too small for its function really, and can get very cramped when all the tables are taken. That said, it's customer friendly, has a wide range of customers at different times of day, and serves very decent burgers.
