S1527 Brady's

A busier pub than all the others so far, quite possibly just because it had got late enough to hit dinner time for many. I managed to get quite a nice, albeit small, table and spent the entire time there waiting to either be asked or volunteer to move - this wasn't required, though.

This review is from many, many weeks ago and roughly coincided with the implementation of Diageo's price increase; leading to the oddity of seeing all the Heineken group taps taped over with a warning that they were premium priced, referencing their extremely unpopular price increase of a few months prior; but which the other macro breweries have mostly or entirely matched since. 

The taping over actually made it look like the taps were turned off; but a quick chat with the senior staff member (owner? manager? I didn't actually ask) who was pulling my pint confirmed that they had made the decision that they would sell them to those willing to pay rather than whipping the lines entirely as some other publicans did. Unfortunately, many of said publicans replaced them with C&C lines, just trading one macro for another...

As as relatively standard large suburban pub with a focus on food, you may prefer somewhere else for just drinking - S0248 Vaughns across the road-ish for instance; but this still seems like a decent pub.
