Welcome to our special little group, known as the Fabulous Fivers, Lady J ;-)
I love the Cosy Club, Tony. In case you've not come across them, they're a (smallish) national chain of bar/restaurants, with 29 branches across the country. They're all individually (but lavishly furnished) and the food is outstanding. Their staff always seem to be exceptionally friendly, helpful and efficient too. Although most of their customers are there to use the restaurant facilities, they welcome casual drinkers too. They generally only have one or two real ales on draught but they're always of excellent quality. (They've got a policy of only stocking real ales that are from breweries which are fairly local to each restaurant). Their prices aren't too bad either (when compared to, say, the price of beer in a bog standard Indian restaurant, where you can often pay at least £6 for a pint of nondescript lager). I was drinking this stuff last Sunday, at £3.90 per pint (which isn't that much more than an ordinary pub charges around here for a decent old ale):
