The Kennedy, Meadowcroft, Aylesbury

Another of Aylesbury's numerous estate pubs, this is now shortened in name to The Kennedy and has as much of a Social Club feel as it does a pub. Again, a classic L-shape interior, the bar follows the L with seating to the left and a raised area further beyond, with a games area ahead and to the right of the bar with darts alcove and two pool tables in a laminate-floored area at the back of the room. No real ale as you'd expect, John Smith's Smooth "crap" the nearest you'll get. A large pull-down screen was showing a late Sunday kick-off Premier League match during my visit which took the clientele's attention away from my visit, and although it's seen better days, it ain't the ogre most people make it out to be.
