I've got a pub opposite me and one literally round the corner. The one round the corner is very locally and if you walk in they all stop and stare at you. The one opposite is more of a family pub, and have all the footy on etc. Go in there occasionally. Its strange though, sat in the beer garden looking accross the road at my house, may as well sit in my garden!!

I'd never go anywhere near them pubs. The further up that road you go, it becomes spot the white guy, the pubs are most likely the same.

Got three locals. Ones the student union and it's a bit shit, but I used to work there. Got a proper pub which is pretty good and there is a Scream bar which is utter crap - takes about half an hour to get served even if the place is empty and the beer tastes of pish because they never clean the lines and the beer is all about to go off.
Usually go to the proper pub every day/other day

My local was the scene of a murder and another attempted murder and as a result is nicknamed the "stab inn".

Lovely place.. I'm in there at least once a week 
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/2708301.stm
The victims and the accused were all drinking in said pub before it kicked off. He went to find them later that night and fucked them up. That scene is literally 2 mins away from me. Was horrible when it happened.

They've probably given up seeing as the Scream pub I used to work in is the best in the Country. and in the top 10 of Mitchell and Butlers pubs, hence the reason I go there so much, excellent service, is cheap, and does good food. Even at 2 or 3 deep on a saturday you won't wait more than 5 mins, unless you're a twat.

My local pubs in my area are good for the following...
- I can walk in and there is always somebody I know in there.
- People travel from allover Rotherham and surrounding areas just to come to my local as it has some disco nights and the weekends are heaving.
- It's a minutes walk from my place.
- My friends work there.
- We have the best football team in our area.
I go every now and then for a few pints (Guiness or Stella) and on the weekend I'll go for a gargle depending on who's out, but I generally just go to socialise nowadays rather than get polaxed.

My local is about 30 seconds down the road, never been in there! Used to be home to the local gang, until they grew up and got jobs or went to prison etc...
Probabnly never been because I've just turned 18, rather go into town, but stop for a drink at my Dad's pub on the way

This is my local, 1 of 3 anyway. I don't drink that much but when I do I go here and have a few games of pool. It's pretty posh but has a pub on the side which is also part of the hotel, just like your average pub anywhere else. One of it's most well known regulars is on youtube, you can also see the pub part of it on the video...

Only ever go when I'm already drunk and on the way back from somewhere. Been in once this year and that was this last Saturday
The place itself is nice enough its the people, they never really go anywhere else. Very very busy on Saturday night and its open till whenever but its full of the same shit head people. We left at half 3 and it was still busy
