The Ship, Mortlake

Two of us had lunch here on 15th April 2013. We each had fish pie and a pint. The food was just awful, tasteless vegetables, overcooked, tasteless fish topped with mashed potato microwaved almost to destruction. In a practically empty pub we had to wait ages and remind the bar staff. For £11.99, disgusting. Overall atmosphere was dull, external doors banging in the wind, unwatched TV moaning in the background.

The Queens Head, Ampthill

The left hand bar on entering is a drinker's delight: everything focussed on the bar, mostly standing room, regulars scattered about, super-friendly bar staff. The landlord Paul and wife Sue are always delighted to chat.This is a Charles Wells pub, but one guest ale is always on, together with Bombardier. Frequent events (e.g. Ampthill Pie Festival, May Day celebrations) and quiz Wednesday.
