Just a brilliant, brilliant place to go for a drink. It does get extremely busy, both inside and out so not really some where to go for a swift, cheeky Sussex half but if you've got the time (and patience) to wait to get served (not criticism of the service, just reflects how popular it is) then it is well worth it. One of my greatest pleasures is a wander through the market, maybe picking up something to eat on the way through, a pint of Harvey's Sussex best from the Porter and an hour or so spent outside, chatting in the sun, soaking in the sights, smells, and sounds of the market. London simply doesn't get any better than this.]]> Wed, 08 Aug 2007 13:59:54 +0000 /review/uk/london/bar-pub/1n82z8u/the-market-porter/1414181125803920 AlexWoods 51.504255591438 -0.092297411597581 http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/london/bar-pub/1n82z8u/the-market-porter/1g82c8

Often hard to find a place to perch, but that's made up for by an unsurpassed collection of beers - with many rare guest ales on tap. If you like real ales and rare beers this is a must.

It's a particularly fine idea on a sunny early-evening to get a takeaway from the 'posh sausage' stall next door to enjoy a banger and a beer.]]> Tue, 08 May 2007 09:55:40 +0000 /review/uk/london/bar-pub/1n82z8u/the-market-porter/1g82c81859830681 blackbeltjones 51.504255591438 -0.092297411597581 http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/london/bar-pub/1n82z8u/the-market-porter/1k10s8

I'll continue with my funny Friday diary (first point St Martin's Lane, remember? The end is the best one, wait for it) with the Market Porter.

Pretty nice pub in the Borough Market with quite a lively feel to it. Actually that's an understatement the place was heaving. Packed inside, and packed outside too. Lot's of people from the creative industries around the Southwark area, plus the usual crowd of professional who were celebrating their Friday liberation before going back in on Monday. Great location to end up after a few hours spent in Borough market, which deserves a review of its own.

Not much more to say on that one. It was time to head back home, as my phone battery had run out so I was socially stranded with nothing to do, nowhere to go and no one to see!

I love this place, mainly because I find it really nostalgic, I think it's because it's close to the Borough Market.

Extremely busy, but great atmosphere, must visit on a Friday night. It servers speciality beers (I haven't tried so please feel free to comment if you have!), street magik, and lots of smashing of glasses, they also serve food.

You'll find that City people drink here weeknights but especially on a Friday, and I would imagine tourist would visit in the day and on weekends.

But don't be put off this pub suits everyone.]]> Tue, 24 Oct 2006 16:29:52 +0000 /review/uk/london/bar-pub/1n82z8u/the-market-porter/1h90k8794736171 lisac 51.504255591438 -0.092297411597581
