The Gallery Pub in Westminster

Ah, The Gallery Pub – it's one of those spots in London that you might pop into for a casual drink, especially if you're in the Pimlico area, as it's right near the tube and some cracking sights. From what I've gathered from folks who've been there, it's got this modern, comfy interior that makes you want to settle in for a chat, and they've a solid lineup of lagers that could hit the spot on a lazy afternoon. Plus, the outdoor benches with a bit of greenery are perfect for when the weather's playing nice. But, and it's a big but, some of the staff can be a tad brusque – we've heard tales of them being outright rude over nothing, which really knocks the wind out of the experience. It's a shame because the pub's gone a bit downhill lately; things like dirty walls and clutter make it feel less inviting than it used to, and the food doesn't seem to be up to scratch anymore. Overall, if you're after a straightforward pub crawl, it might still be worth a go, but go in with your eyes open and maybe keep expectations in check for a more relaxed outing.
