The Square Pig, Holborn

I disliked this pub so much on a visit earlier this evening that I specially registered on this site so that I could make sure other people knew how horrible it was. It isn't the fact that it is located at the bottom of an office block and has as much soul and character as a KFC, nor the fact that even by London standards it is excruciatingly expensive. No, it was the smug way the bar maid said "we don't do small glasses" (when asked for a small glass of red wine) and then cheerily demanded �5.35 for my drink. Delightful. It has the air of a place that doesn't care if you never go back just so long as you stay long enough that they can rip you off at least once. In a word, vile.
