The Green, Willesden Green

This is pretty much my local, and the pub i visit most regularly in the area. However, as some people have already pointed out, it does lack character. But the biggest problem this place seems to have is with staff. The staff are almost always friendly and helpful, but they're also almost always new!!! Having had three friends work there over the past couple of year, I've learnt from them that the problem is actually the management. It's poor, and unfriendly, and so alot of staff up and leave in a fairly short time. One of my mates worked there for almost in 2006 7 months and was the second longest serving member of bar staff, losing out only to the Chinese guy who was there for 2 years (whose name i cant remember but was really great, until he stole a load of wine and got sacked).
Generally, the Green is a good place to pop in for a quick drink, and the food is definitely good, but it's not a place where you can expect to get to know the staff, or expect any kind of discernible character.
