Quick, late-evening pint when passing through Waterloo. Pub quiet, but given the state of the tables and the gent’s toilet I can only assume it must have been very busy earlier on and the staff are all too exhausted to tidy up.

St Austell - Tribute4.20PoorRendered bland and near tasteless by severe over-chilling and being served with a thick creamy head. Not what I like at all.

Late afternoon and middle of evening peak. Experience was awful. 3 out of 6 pumpclips turned a quarter way round - what is that all about? No apparent action being taken to clean lines and get new beers on.
