Old Town Tavern — Restaurant in London

Wow an unexpected gem! Was looking for a pub with a good craft beer selection (which they def have) and a cosy space (also have) and so ended up here. Saw they had Mexican food before going but didn't really intend to get any (full disclosure, I'm an American expat and have been burned by disappointing Mexican food in the UK one too many times, so have a bit of a "fool me twice" complex). BUT we got hungry while enjoying all our beers and the atmosphere so decided to get the tacos, chips, salsa & guac, and wouldn't you know, it was some of the best we've ever had in London. Really well done, quality and authentic ingredients. Salsa in particular was the most legit one I have found here. Finished off with the churros (and cried tears of joy) aaaaand one last beer. ;) Planning to go back ASAP for burritos and nachos!

Super nice, friendly staff that knows their beers, too. Will...

Worst pub in Clapham - and I've lived here for 25 years. Claim to have a good ale selection but staff cannot pull a pint or change a barrel. Gave me the remnants of a barrel which tasted awful and didn't want to change it. When my friends and I entered an hour before closing, the staff not only audibly said 'f**k sake more people' but then proceeded to pour us bad pints and then tell us to put them in plastics and leave - all more than 20 mins before closing. They have awful customer service. If you are closing then don't serve drinks, I'd rather be told their closed then for them to take our money for awful pints to be told to leave 5mins later. Unprofessional, not cosy and...
