Really rough pubs

Just a little bored and freezing cold waiting for a venue to open its doors to see a band, so I'm in the pub across the road.

Well I've frequented some rough holes in my time but this takes the biscuit. Broken glass on the floor, a bunch of tattooed, nose-pierced chavs playing pool swearing and someone just fell over at the bar.
Lots of hi-vis wearing junkies obviously been in here since 11am this morning and a girl of about 17 with three babies in a pram.
Everybody drinking Carling except me, keeping myself to myself. Can't complain though - my very nice pint only cost me £2 25 and I'm going to buy another. Why not?

Anyway, my question:
Does anyone have any tales of not so desireable drinking establishments to tell?

Back later, I'd best neck my beer and join the queue

Re: Really rough pubs

I thought, you could tell a rough pub by the sawdust, spittle and blood on the floor!
Oh and the billiard table being used for other activities!!

Yep, a place on the Isle of Wight, where the Landlord sold drugs as well as beer. Only went in there once.

Oh and a little place where the Landlord was a midget, so behind the bar was a raised platform. He served underage drinkers, yep I was one of them.

They don't know what Brexit is mate. They can't read papers.

Well, make sure you get up the front and if needs be, keep your ear pressed firmly on the speaker!

Re: Really rough pubs

A pub close to us was horrible. Really horrible. Your feet stuck to the floor and you didn't dare sit on the seats to avoid baby puke.

It has been transformed into a gastro pub. With a five star reputation.
