Me too.
A mate of mine accused me of having shares in the Crown & Anchor yesterday....but I just love pubs. Decent pubs.

i prefer staying in, clubs or parties, but with big gatherings, one has to settle for the pub

Yeah....you've got Planet Kebab (not as bad as it sounds) and...erm....not really.
If you walk 10 mins up towards Oval there's a couple of decent delis, the Cable cafe, the Oval Tandoori for a curry etc.

I did a double header at the Fried Chicken place on the same row of shops before and after the opening night, wasn't bad if thats your thing. Owner super friendly too and hadn't noticed a new pub had opened virtually next door!
Plus fabulous Eritrean restaurant Adulis - http://www.adulis.co.uk/
otherwise its chicken and chips - offers such as 4 pieces of friend chicken and chips for £1.99 or similar are unbeatable!

Apart from Adulis and Oval Tandoori there are also a couple of Latin American places, Jamaican, Chinese, Sushi Bar, apart from the Chicken fiends, PLanet Kebab is a classic though
Ah yes I am - I tend to be very very drunk and so maybe not very observant when I contemplate such foods

Some of them are quite a walk up to the other end of Brixton Rd though. I used to use Oval tandoori a lot (delivery) when I lived round there a few years back.

Had a wicked night there last night. Great pub. And that's saying something coming from me
They have a special imported one (Celebration or something) but when my friend ordered it last night, they told him before they poured it that it was £8, giving him opportunity to opt out.

You asked how much it was and they threatened to kick you out. Hmmmm.
I sense there might be more to this.

A mate of mine (not gabi) got burned on the £8 pint this evening, and there was no prior warning of the price.
Anyway, another good night in the pub. They need to update the signs though - the Brooklyn Lager and Kernel were both finished but advertised.
Nope. Just ordered a pint of what should be the cheapest pint on the list. And was genuinely surprised to see a price tag of £8.
Er, that's all there is to it, sorry onket. I hope they don't put 'cheap bar' anywhere near their ads, for your sake

One of the many things that led to my friend being thrown out was him writing on the window 'PINTS 99P'.

apart from the massive price list on the wall directly behind the bar staff?
Sierra Nevada Celebration is not Sierra Nevada Pale ale, BTW. It's stronger and brewed on a far smaller scale. Still shouldn't be £8 a pint mind, but a lot of things are, have you been in the Euston Tap, the Rake Bar or the Craft Beer Co?

Yeah, some of the beers are incredibly expensive but the prices are prominently displayed and there are regular priced (although not cheap) options too. I don't see a problem with having the premium priced options really.
