The Merry Harriers, Hambledon

I paid a return visit to the ` harriers August bank holiday weekend using their campsite. My only regret is i cannot visit as often as i`d like . It`s a pity about the license review . In my opinion, Colin & Julie and their staff work very hard to make the pub as popular as it is. But i noticed as soon as i walked through the door that the walls were festooned with printed email messages of support. It`s the only pub i know where strangers are made to feel welcome.
Some may complain of high prices but, i think the price reflects the locality.
I live in the West Midlands where you can get a pint of bitter for �1.80 & lager for about �2.50 in some ` down market` establishments, but , you get what you pay for..

The Goldthorn Pub, Wolverhampton

it`s really sad to see this place go downhill fast, when it was a social club i was a member for nearly 10 years, saturday nights were packed to capacity and sunday night you had a different crowd who were there for the entertainment, i didn`t go in during the week because of my work.
But now after a sucession of managers, it`s now run by an asian father & son who have a different perspective on things , they are doing their best , but why spend money on a place when you can`t get decent people through the door.
