Where did all the Finnegan's Wake pubs go? Sub-O'Neill's Oirishy dens, one by one they've sailed off to Tir Na Nog, leaving the pubs to revert back to the names they had before their Paddy branding. The Gloucester Arms ain't gonna set the heather alight in SW7, but it is a stolid affair specialising in cheap(ish) beer and 2 for 1 food deals. A rather average pub when all's said and done, but it offers a decent enough alternative to the gastro stylings of the The Prince Regent across the road.
