YM\'s favourite pubs

YM has scoured the country to find Britain's best waterside pubs. Is your favourite there or have they missed the best pub without exception? You can always add your own if so...

Disappointed to see the Master Builder at Buckler's Hard in there - one of the worst yottie pubs around, unless it's had a very recent makeover.

Likewise the Butt & Oyster at Pin Mill, always featured but very over-rated (at least when I was last there); still, this sort of advert keeps people away from the less well-known gems.

Interesting

Are you seriously suggesting that there is not one decent pub between East Anglia and half way down the West Coast ? ( going anti clockwise)

 

[RivalRedwing]

Re: YM\'s favourite pubs

there are plenty of decent pubs - TK and I just flagged 2 that always feature but fail to impress

Who decided that these were the best?

YM has scoured a bit of the country, leaving most of it unscoured.
And, there is more than one country involved here. /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

If you are going to include pubs that fail to impress - then at least you are being comprehensive - I suggest you include a rating system that covers quality/cost/menu variety.

I also suspect that YM's scouring was either a Google search or a trade listing, there's a fair bit of complete shite there

I'm very disappointed to see TK reviewing this, he's one of the worst yotty's about, unless he's had a recent makeover.

So who here has been to every-single one then?

Re: YM\'s favourite pubs

I've been to only 24 out of the 40 so I suppose that invalidates my opinion.

Re: YM\'s favourite pubs

Does no-one like any of these pubs?!

 

[Richard Shead]

Re: YM\'s favourite pubs

I do Dan dont worry I like the Master Builders, The Jolly Sailor and all the other commercial ones..oh and that one on the East Coast

Re: YM\'s favourite pubs

I don't think you'd get many votes for the Master Builder, thought the Folly is excellent, even if not everyones cup of tea on a Friday night! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I have been to some of them, though as ever, personal opinions vary hugely

Re: YM\'s favourite pubs

yeah..... very wise... all the pubs on the east coast are shite.....

 

[Richard Shead]

Re: YM\'s favourite pubs

Joking aside I dont think I have actually been to a bad pub on the East Coast but then again I have only been about 6 times in my life..

As with most pubs nowadays many of them are being taken over by large chains and serving shite food..

And thinking about it long and hard I think I have only ever been to the Mill, the jolly sailor and the master builders as well as the George!

Re: YM\'s favourite pubs

Master Builders was hopeless 3 years ago, and last season: still hopeless.
They manage fine with the drinks, but abandon hope ye who attempte to ordere foode.

Re: YM\'s favourite pubs

Did not say it was good just said I had been there!

Re: YM\'s favourite pubs

Well I'll vote for the Master Builder, it WAS crap three years ago plus but recent visits have been OK. Food delivered on time, beer in good nick. Last time I said this I also added that it could be because I'm a nice kind of person who gets good service wherever he goes ,whereas the average, penny pinching, miserable yotty gets the service he deserves /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
