Pools with fair payout systems and low-to-no fees.  Those are your best options.  There are plenty of comparisons between different pools in here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=41.0

Personally I mine on my own p2pool node.

First look at the pool comparison list compiled here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=104664.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=104664.0)

Then get updated info on the pools you are interested here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=77000.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=77000.0)

and THEN go to the link johnnybravo provided and look at the pool discussions.  Honestly it doesn't really make a big difference in the long run as long as you're one of the top 8 pools.  Pick the one that gives you the lowest stales, least downtime and most peace of mind (all that varies by your location and ISP).
