I'm with you Pauro. We all know pubs can operate without the meathead that they all seem to employ now. I had my drink nicked as i put one foot on the road to let someone off the pavement. Of course it wasn't the first time he asked me not to step on the road as he spent all night hassling everyone who was there, even rather bizarrely an old man who wasn't a customer and just someone who had arranged to meet his wife outside the pub.
My protestations were met with a 'I don't give a f***' which was nice. When i explained that i worked in customer service and he shouldn't talk to customers like that he told me to 'f*** off'
I'm gonna write a letter to their head office but I'm frankly too angry at the moment that my favourite Soho pub has caught this 21st Century disease

I'm a big fan. Cheap, nice staff and plenty of pavement!

I generally love this pub. Cheap beer, great in the summer, good crowd etc. But my last visit here has been tarnished by some bouncer making sure we all drink behind the white line. I'm ok with the rule, but it does spoil the banter, having someone like him having a go at punters all the time. A lot of people were getting very pissed off including me. A friend of mine didnt know about the rule and the bouncer just grabbed his drink. Please management, get this bouncer out. He's beginning to spoil what's a very good bar.

A Sam Smith’s pub. It has a very interesting interior, with separate drinking areas. But it does not have Old Brewery Bitter on handpump, so is not recommended if ale quality is important to you. There is a pinkish kerbstone outside marking the location of the pump that assisted John Snow in demonstrating that Cholera was a water-borne disease.

Love this pub. It gets insanely busy, and that's not just because of the cheapness of its (quality) SS drinks range, it's because the atmosphere is consistently appealing. It seems to go on forever, with plenty of seating upstairs when you can't find a slot in the more cramped downstairs area (or if the pavement outside doesn't appeal). The staff are friendly, the clientele are a mixed bunch but it's always relaxed, bustling and generally a pleasant experience.
