CC London Spring Party - ALL BAR ONE - THE SHAD: Fiday 8 April

[ttcycle]

I haven't checked what I'm up to on the 8th yet but All Bar One does have a great view. I don't care too much about the drink. Ultimate decider for me will have to be the state of finances as it's all up shoot creek at the moment!

Hope to see you all!

Frank, when you get through, would you mind seeing if they have happy hours or wot not and when they are please, as I cant see anything from their website, thanks!

I voted for All Bar One too as that one is not a bad pub.

Not wanting to disappoint Ian, but also myself and other beer drinkers, I have just checked their web site and this branch has the following beers:


Yes there is lots of Eurofizz (and worse), they don't do Pride any more, but the last one is a genuine English draft ale, served by the pint. They may well have others but I can't get through as their phone is engaged.

I've had enough Slag to keep me going for a while!

I love Doom Bar... that's it then.. sorted...

 

[CharlieB]

Doom Bar is a good session pint. It used to be largely limited to Cornwall, but has and will spread further now that Sharp's brewery has been swallowed by one of the big ones (I think it's Coors).

 

[Tynan]

Doombar, journeyman bitter and habitual bitter in pubs that serve only one

a very long way from my favourites

It does have a lovely view! I've always wanted to pop into the Design Museum to see what its like...

If we get this plan formalised, is it worth booking a few tables?

 

[redjedi]

I'm happy with Doombar, even happier after I've had a few Doombars. It's a regular in my fridge.

 

[Davywalnuts]

Whats "DoomBar"??? Its not on the list above??

Look at the other list! ^^^^
It's the draft bitter sold at All Bar One in Shad Thames.

Ahhh haa!! Cheers!

So, is the idea we work through the list, bit like wine sampling, but no spitting however?

 

[Sittingduck]

So, anyone joining me early?

Quite possibly... Will be out if the office by 4pm (latest).
Doesn't look like much choice of lager on tap! Might have to resort to draught Aspall. This could get messy!

That's right! How many laps do you think you'll manage?

 

[Tynan]

no to chain corporate pubs with ghastly canopies and faux cobble river frontages

no no no
