Railway Tavern, NW7

After passing a couple of lads having a funny fag at the entrance and making my way to the bar I found the barmaid/landlady to be quite dismissive. I couldn't finish my pint of Old Speckled Hen as it had turned and after my first dealings I decided not to bother asking for a new pint. Bombardier was also available and the Greene King IPA was off leaving a selection of standard lagers and Greene King IPA chilled. There is a dartboard at the front of the pub and a pool table in the extension at the rear where there were also some decks set up from a previous DJ night. I'm not sure that I would enjoy the DJ nights here as the speakers were blaring out drum and bass hits at 19:00 on a Tuesday evening. There is a small beer garden out the back with a couple of picnic tables and a small hut creating a covered area for smokers on those rainy days. There was a sign in the toilet that said “please respect your local and the regulars – BY NOT – damaging the walls and the toilets”. I think that this sums this place up. This place is crying out for a refurb and maybe a change in management and direction. Until this happens I'll being keeping well clear.
