Best Pub in London?
This is probably the best pub in London.
It's small, it's busy, it's closed at weekends. So what makes is so special?
For a start, it's owned by an independent brewer, St. Peters, who are based in Suffolk.
So if you want Stella or Strongbow or any of those other well known brands, look elsewhere. (And thankfully, fans of the aforementioned do).
The building dates from 1720, and inside you'll find a welcoming coal fire, which make the wooden chairs and benches slightly more comfortable!
All the beers and ales are naturally from the St Peters brewery, and the wooden pumps are built into the wall behind the bar. Bottled beers are also served, in beautiful oval bottles, and the service is friendly.
There's also a food menu, however I haven't sampled that yet.
The pub can be extremely busy, especially when the Clerkenwell and City set leave work, but if you can avoid the very busiest times, you'll find a charming venue to wile away the hours.
