[woodgie2]

Seven Stars, Carey Street, Lincoln's Inn Fields. That's probably classed as Westminster

(I think)

 

[Lasher]

This would be a better thread if you would ask people to go throw tomatoes at David Blaine for you.

Btw... If anyone in London happens to be cruising past David Blaine...

 

[woodgie2]

Oh yes, Scott. Why?

 

[MaxSebastian]

Cheshire Cheese, Fleet Street.

 

[nightnurse]

[Guest]

Oh yes, Scott. Why?

Market Porter 9 Stoney Street, Borough Market, London, SE1 9AA

Okay, these are all of the ones on this list that I have been to.
The first, Shakespeare's whatever, is rubbish. Fish and chips for the toruists, I don't think a single self respecting local would be caught dead.

You have to go to Ye Olde Cock, just for the name, really.

Pop is really more of a bar/club than pub. Which is not bad at all but it's very modern-retro-chic, not a classic englishy thing at all.

Of this list, I would say that probably the Market Porter is my favorite. Also there is another pub just down the street from them called I think the Load of Hay that is very nice too.

Where'd you get this list? I can think of lots of way better pubs than most of these. The Princess Louise in Holborn is
outstanding. The Warringotn Arms in Maida Vale used to be a bordello, and looks it, and is fab. The Blackfriars is worth a visit as well. Good god, man, you want a list of pubs, I got it for ya.
