Chequers, Walthamstow

This is my second choice of pubs in Walthamstow. Though not been in there for a while as it's changed hands more than I've had hot dinners but on my recent visit we popped in there & ate the Tai food in the restaurant part of the pub. Without a word of a doubt it is very well presented, tastes absolutely fab and considering that the rest of the pub leaves a lot to be desired, the waitress service and whole abience is something everyone should experience. I hope other people will agree with me once you try it out. Please let me know what you thought of it. I know that since we ate in there we have been recomending our friends to go there. Trust me, you too will be doing the same.

Bonds, Mayfair

Bonds. Sounds expensive, doesn't it? Well trust me it is. You will come out of there wondering where all your money has gone once the penny drops and you realise how pricey this pub really is. The bar staff have no idea on how to pour a pint of guiness. They just pour it to the top without allowing it to settle. Their pints are never quite full, leaving a good inch or two gap from the top. For three drinks, please don't hand over a tenner otherwise you will appear to be a skint flint.

Go in there on a friday & you will be surrounded by people dressed up in suits who think they've just done a day's work in the city. Probably more like a done a day's work in a department store.

It's a noisy & well over priced pub. You can do better by going elsewhere.

Trafalgar Tavern, Greenwich

I've been in this pub a few times. You need a fold up bike to get there mind you. As it's a bit of a long hike from the surrounding pubs around the Greenwich area. On a nice sunny day it's refreshing to sit outside & admire the splendid scenery.

The staff are very courteous whether you are local or tourist. The food appears to be very expensive though. �3.50 for a bowl of chips? Ouch!

This place is definetely worth a looking in.
