Thank you

I love this pub, & it is so easy to get to. Even better for us, its walking distance. The food is brilliant, the menus are extensive, I always find it difficult in choosing! Prices are reasonable, & the service is very good, & the staff are very friendly!

Part of Sizzling Pubs, who offer a great basic, fast food pub service. Standard food but so very inexpensive.
drinks are cheap, subsidised by the food sales

You could fit Gatwick Airport in this pub! Its huge but has quite a warm feel to it with a couple of little booth style seats.
There was quite a few people in there at lunch time when I popped in for a pint which is always a good sign with a big pub. The bar staff were really friendly and I quite like the sign above the bar saying ‘we will top up your pint’. The first thing I look for is which lagers and bitters a pub has hooked up and in pubs like this its usually just Stella, Kronenburg and if you’re lucky, John Smiths but I was really pleased to see they had Harveys on tap.
The menu was absolutely huge and really REALLY cheap. Everything from meatball subs to 10oz ribeye steaks were on there for more than half the price of most pubs which tells me its probably not organically sourced from local farms but sourced by a lorry in a cash and carry outlet. It did smell really good though and when you pay £3 for a sandwhich, you can’t really go wrong!

When I am not at University this is my local pub and I have had some cracking nights in this place. The pub is big with a space for eating, a chilled bar in the middle and a sports bar. It also has a beer garden which is ok. For some people not having sky television in a pub is a big let down but it does stop people from just watching the television. This makes it quite a sociable pub to go to
The prices are rock bottom for drinks which is always a bonus whilst the food is good value for money. The area around is good and with the dog stadium a 10 minute walk away you could easily start here then go there after.
The feel is good and local residents are pretty good. Early afternoon the ‘punters’ are the guys that come in from work and just want a quiet drink so if you want it to be more lively then go early evening. However, when it’s quiet it doesn’t feel empty so in my personal opinion I do not mind being in there at that time.
I have given it 3 stars because its not the best pub ever but would be worth 4 stars if it had the odd night with something different going on.

The Grenadier is a big local pub serving a good range of food and drinks. There is generally a good atmosphere inside, and the locals are very friendly. There can sometimes be quite a long wait for food, but generally the quality of food is excellent when it arrives. The menu is designed around flame grilled meats, however there are good salads and jackets available too.
