Randomness Guide to London - Wargrave Arms entry

This is a big corner Young's pub. Shame they served my Special in a hot glass, but it tasted OK anyway. There were a couple of office Christmas lunches underway when I was in there, which added to the atmosphere but without making it overcrowded. But this is a big enough pub that it would need an awful lot of people in there to make it overcrowded. There is an abundance of comfortable seating, and I felt that this was an honest, basic, boozer, where I got a warm welcome. This was my first visit, so can't comment on how it might have changed for the worse, as I had heard suggested by others, but I always say that a pub can be two different places on different days if the atmosphere is good one day but not the next. Based on my one visit, I would go back.
