I think it wins on a couple of counts - close to Exhibition Road, pretty 
cheap, likely to be fairly quiet, won't be full of students as it's for 
post-grads and staff mostly. Downside is it may be closed.

To be fair to Aussie lager, it is abysmal.

Top marks to some of the fantastic wines from down under though,

In Australia/New Zealand they taste lovely. In the UK, bleh.

My second favourite lager is Tui (from NZ). But if you buy it here it
tastes like water...

Seconded on the Wines.

Some of it is actually nice - lager is almost all you can get, but
there are tiny breweries that do stuff that verges on drinkable. The
mass-market piss is piss.

 your awesome cabernets.


None of these are actually worth the money in the UK because of the
cost of shipping - for the price, you can get much nicer stuff from
Spain, SA or Chile. A pity. Same for kangaroo meat.

 That sounds more appropriate for Saturday 8am than 8pm. But maybe that's
 because I grew up in Hong Kong.

[Wikimediauk-l] Post AGM pub

2012-05-09 Thread Stevie Benton

Hello everyone,

Just thought I'd drop a line to see if anyone has any recommendations 
for a pub near the Science Museum for everyone to retire to after the AGM.


I used to drink in the Hoop and Toy (a couple of minutes away) 
occasionally but reviews suggest it's gone downhill a little.


Anyone have any suggestions?

Stevie

I'm sure the Science Museum staff will know (scientifically and quantifiably!) 
all of the best pubs in the nearby area - try asking them for an expert 
recommendation? ;-)

Star Tavern, in Belgravia, isn't bad at all; I am a bit snoobish over pubs
and it was perfectly acceptable to me :)

But it might be a bit too far away.

Well as long as there's decent beer involved, I'm in.
