The Colonies (Victoria - London)

The Colonies

A very nice pub indeed tucked away behind some rather pricey looking houses just behind central victoria and quite as a mouse outside. The place is accessible from two roads and has wooden floors, outdoor tables on one road and a low ceiling. Gets rather busy come evenings but the bar staff are not very friendly and rather slow and useless. A pint in here costs about £2.80 and to be fair there is nowhere to sit so you ahve to make do standing in one of the two roads either side of this establishment. Gets rather busy at lunchtimes as well. It may not be as small as it looks from outside but it is still rather borrower-friendly but the atmosphere does liken towards a rather bolstered and friendly londer clientell, there are no snobs here to speak of.

Overall I would have to say that despite the size of the place and the attitude of the staff I did like this pub and would come back for another if the opportunity arose but be prepared for westminster prices and bring a map with you to find the place! Apparently closed on weekend though!! Boooooo!! So 4/10 for me.
