The Dog and Six Stories, West Hampstead

R.I.P The Dog and Six Stories, fantastic pub with great people working there, only to be blighted by its awkward position and inability to attract the socialites further down on West End Lane. We shall all miss it

The Alliance, Kilburn

ok i recognise that a few people have posted positive reviews about this pub, however i can only draw back to an experience i had, which led me to have only feelings of anger towards the people that both work there and go there.

Firstly I am a well-dressed black male and a couple of years ago i went to The Alliance with several white friends of mine. I first visited the toilet and then proceeded to buy a drink for myself. When I asked for a simple pint, I was told that I was not going to be served. I first believed this to be because of my particularly young appearance, so i pulled out my drivers license only to be told:

'your great-grandad wouldnt get served in this pub now leave'

A large number of drinkers heard him state this and did nothing to defend my cause.

A racist pub exists in NW6 West Hampstead, and people need to recognise this simple fact.
