Cheap pint in the West End

The Cock Tavern, Oxford Circus, London, W1W 8QG
It could only be a Samuel Smiths pub when you walk in, busy, bustling and a great mix of people. It always amazes me the amount of change you get in these pubs even in the west end of London. And amazingly for this price the beer is of much better quality that the a lot of places charging twice as much. I wanted to have a pint of good old Yorkshire bitter so went for a pint of the aptly named Old brewery bitter and was just as anticipated with its strong bitterness and no nonsense taste. I did move onto my favourite Sam Smiths beer after that though and I really rate the Pure Brewed Lager as one of the best German style lagers that you can get. The walls are wooden panelled and is normal it's a little bit like walking back in time when you enter one of these pubs, but it's a brilliant reminder of what a good old pub where the only food is crisps and nuts can be like - an antidote to Wetherspoons.
