Review of Snow and Rock

Hmm... okay... 
I'm umming and ahhing about what to give this branch of S+R since every visit has yielded a different experience. Sometimes the customer service has been terrible - really miserable lady who simply didn't want to be there; whereas the last time time I went a brilliant bloke helped me out in the trail running department downstairs.
The range of kit they have is superb, and are one of the few places I have been to who stock a good range of adventure racing products. However, it is by and large hugely expensive, since it only stocks the premium brands.
(The premium image of the store actually puts off a lot of people I know who claim the staff are snobby, and then who immediately jump into Millets or Blacks next door.)
So 3 stars, just for the inconsistent customer service, but otherwise great.

Review of Builders Arms

My old local 
This place used to be my local and it is still one of my favourites; not because there's anything particularly special about it but just a nice, bright, airy bar with a little bit of outside space.
It's also off the beaten track, so it is definitely a locals' bar (a good or bad thing, depending on your view of Kensington residents).
