Bulls Head, Chislehurst. Friend of mine on Monday. Guess the beer was 6 pounds, the rest being table service/ delivery charge.
went there yesterday as a mate really likes the pub. Was worried about this service charge thing but they have either got rid or put it on to the price of the drink. £6.15 for a pint of Moretti.
the thing that did annoy me about the Bull is the fact they now only accept card payments.

I'd have insisted on only having cash, a good way to have enjoyed a free pint.
have done my fair share of al fresco boozing greenwood victoria - expensive and cold red barn barnehurst - cheap and cold the morgan belvedere - fine but a daytime drink the yacht bexleyheath - cold and some gypo started on everyone in the garden at 5pm the one bell crayford - brilliant good service and warm as have heaters still to go the kings head bexley - this saturday the bickley arms ( cousins local ) friday 14th
on a sep note played at southern valley golf club last weekend and they permit you to go to the bar and get "takeaway" was brilliant going to a bar again
The kings head Bexley not bad - good little ordering system you send a whatsapp through and drinks served in about 5 mins Guinness and a San Miguel £9.40
With the falling CV rates and increasing number of folk vaccinated, the impact to the hospitality trade this weekend will be the weather. I would have completely understood if restaurants and pubs were allowed to open indoors from Friday rather than Monday.
Wheatsheaf West Wickham for me for a couple. Not as busy as I thought it would be.
I deliberately stayed at home yesterday, and have said that I will for a week or two. I'd love to go to a pub, but thought I'd be happier waiting until any early excitement had died down. Just wondering whether others felt the same or whether it's just likely to be Mondaynightitis. It'll be interesting to see what Friday and Saturday are like.
Stopped off in here on the way back to Bromley. There has to be 50 people in this gaff, at 3.30 on a Thursday afternoon is impressive. @blackpool72@clb74@ricky_otto I paid the whole price for the round this time!
I ventured inside a pub today. First time sitting inside since gawd knows, probably last March.
Feel strange or not?
It seemed pretty normal, apart from having to put a mask on to go to the loo and the staff wearing masks. It was of course no standing and table service.
I’m taking my mum and sister out for dinner this evening to celebrate my mum’s 70th and my sisters 40th birthday (which happened during the last lockdown), I am looking forward to it but also slightly apprehensive about the amount of people and the busy environment.
