I just popped in the White Horse and straight back out again....ten minutes later after getting fed up waiting to be served. A right slow coach bar person....and there was a only a few peoplw waiting for service.
I haven't been in for years....and won't for many years.
Went to the Elm Park Tavern and served straight away (by my son
)

I was thinking more of what happened to Camden when it became an essential stop off for tourist buses.

They're lovely in there as well and if you fancied a beer with your toastie for breakfast no eyelids would be batted

At £2.60 for a pint of draught beer its always tempting.
I really like the place. Gets crowded when football is on. One of those places I will be really pissed off at losing. They reckon they will come back. But I guess it wont be so cheap.

Good to hear and tragic at the same time

I asked them about it. They reckon they will be back. The rent will go up in stages. There view was try that or have no job. So give it a go. I am still sceptical how it will turn out in long term

The other thing I like about it is this is typical Mediterranean culture. Drinking , having a coffee and eating. Prefer it to pubs. Also its child friendly.
Yup it is. And it's one of the few places left in Brixton where you can fill your belly for a fiver.

Or even a glass of wine or cognac! Good coffee too and only a quid to takeaway.

Cognac in Russia too. I remember seeing old ladies at the train station in Moscow drinking it at 8am with their breakfasts. I joined in with a super strength lager.

Street Party: July 2
And, anyone know of a big-sounding band for our party? We may have a spare slot, having failed to secure Brasstermind or Mangoseed.

If you're after that type of sound, ask the booker at the Hootenanny. I can only think of indie or stuff that is NOT family friendly at the moment.

I've seen them at Hootenanny a couple of times and friend used to play with them.

It looks awful, like some kind of posh/trendy wrapping paper. Soulless & incongruent to its surroundings.

That's too kind. It looks cheap.
I agree, a cheap looking generic construct that has zero relationship to its surroundings.

That is really quite fucking ugly to say the least.

Makes me think of Prince though, which I kind of like

I think the Shard was built quicker than this little local hotel , are they working around some iron age archeological site or something ?
