Last time I wandered into the Old Mill at the weekend, they told me that they weren't doing food. The Star, where we ended up, was doing sandwiches though.

I noticed a sign in the ship saying no drugs.
How silly and hypocritical is that, when you actually think about it.
Apparently they have to have it as part of their licencing conditions which makes it even more mind boggling.

Oh dear. Is your glass half empty or smashed to pieces. Life hasn't been good to you has it? 3 out of 10... only because it is better than being a derelict building. The owner needs to make more effort and actually make the increasing young professional locals feel welcome. He has not succeeded in doing this. It's going to take more than several coats of magnolia, a few old PC prints and cheap drinks. am thinking of making the place feel more modern, open, airy, welcoming, and maybe serve some decent food! At the moment the place doesn't know what it wants to be, thought it certainly does know it CAN'T be a nightclub. Seems like you want exactly what I dont. 'Young Professionals', should that read yuppies or wankers, or Mindless Sheeple who coz they get a train uptown to some crappy corporate office hell job think this not only justifies a superiority complex but, can compensate for lack of personality or inability to think outside of the consumerist box. They're best of sticking to mindless, mundane uptown crap like the slug and lettuce or all bar one, which personally if they were on fire I wouldn't waste my wee. As for making the place open, airy and modern - please, dont make me laugh. See what happened when the rose and crown on the high st tried the same thing? These type of pubs nearly always fail because they lose all atmosphere. I'd rather cut my thingy off with rusty scissors than frequent a sterile, soulless, laminate floored hell. Luckily there are other pubs in plumstead. |
