The High Stool in Greenford

Ah, The High Stool – it's one of those local Irish pubs that really hits the spot for a laid-back evening. From what I've gathered from the reviews, the staff are absolute gems, always ready with a smile and top-notch service that makes you feel like you're part of the gang. The authentic Irish vibe, especially with that live music and dancing on Saturdays, sounds like a brilliant way to unwind after a long week in London. Plus, the drinks are reasonably priced, so it's easy on the wallet for a quick catch-up. On the flip side, though, there was this one off-putting experience someone mentioned, where the staff got a bit too carried away with their own conversations, making it uncomfortably loud and unprofessional – not ideal if you're after a peaceful pint. And it's a shame there's no food on offer, so you might find yourself nipping out for a snack. All in all, with a solid 4.4 rating, it's got more ups than downs, but it's worth keeping those little niggles in mind if you're planning a visit. I'd say give it a go if you're in the area; it's a proper community spot with plenty of charm.
