The Queen Adelaide, Wandsworth, SW18

Tris C left this review about The Queen Adelaide

Dating from the mid-19th century though possibly rebuilt, the name can be seen in mosaic to the entrance lobby.
However, the interior is one of those horrible, massively tarted-up Young’s jobs with predictable contemporary touches, mixed furniture and all seemingly ‘zoned’; there was also an overpowering smell of fried food, consumed by mixed local punters.
The Young’s choice of London Original and Special were augmented by Gipsy Hill’s Trail, an insulting £3.30 a half and a horrible ‘juicy’ beer.
This is a very corporate affair and as Rex says, this is a place to take your mother; Master Brew and a more authentic pub atmosphere can be found at the Hop Pole almost opposite, but the Cat’s Back is a short walk and is miles better.
