Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Gospel Oak Tavern

Much-extended Marston's pub with various different seating / dining areas in an overall 'L'-shape. Dull, semi-modern furniture and decor throughout. However, for the better weather, there is a side patio and rear beer garden. Standard menu, plus a couple of specials on a board. Just Banks's Amber (£2.70) and Hobgoblin available from the two banks of three handpumps.

Soup Dragon left this review about Gospel Oak Tavern

This is a detached Marston's pub and eatery with a patio area. There has been a pub here at least since the Victorian period, in order to feed the local collieries. The pub has been added to over the years, especially since the area was turned over for residential use in the 1960s. The main part of the pub is likely the c1910 build. It is in cream brick, with coffee wood beams on the gables. The old corner entrance is now blocked. The extension behind is modern. The interior has one main room that i saw. It is typically foody in being in cream, coffee, patterned wallpaper, with bits of red and wood. The most colour was actually supplied by the toys in the Tardis like kid's grabbing machine, which seems to take centre-stage. A few vases and mirrors are about, as well as beer offers and a chamber-pot full of lightless twigs. Several TVs were showing football. The service was functional and the clientele mixed and dining. Beer; usual tap stuff with Banks's MILD and Shipyard Indepedence Ale on, as well as three handpulls with Banks's Bitter, CockerHoop and Marston's EPA on. The MILD was fine. A generic Marston's food pub, which is easily forgettable.
