Re: Visiting daa'aann saafff :-)
 

cheesy four star hotel in the west end. Hyde Park corner.

Re: Visiting daa'aann saafff :-)
 

I know nuthin about pubs so i may well see you guys for an early brekkie at the Ace instead :)

Re: Visiting daa'aann saafff :-)
 

No, no, no Zig...

is not the same as

If it's a brekkie, rather than an early brekkie, then I might come and join in too.

What kind of drinky places do you want? Traditional boozers, cool bars, gastropubs...?

There's also the massive Winter Wonderland festival over the road in Hyde Park (ice skating, rides, lots of food and drink). Might sound 'touristy' but Zig went one year and said it was pretty good fun...? Clicky

Dizzy - you're spoiled for choice with pubs/bars in London tbh, but happy to help with some suggestions if you let us know what you're looking for

Oh and that Winter Wonderland thing looks great Caz - think I might give it a go one evening after work to get in the Christmasy spirit. Which might also involve drinking some Christmas spirit :grin: Funny that Spidey went before - he obviously isn't quite the hardened anti-Christmas-Scroogy-pants that he'd have us all believe... ;)

Thats it, pick a date when I'll be up north to come down south...

Have fun :)

Cheers Mark.

What type of pub do you like?

If you want an authentic Victorian gin palace, then try the Princess Louise in Holborn, which has recently been restored to its former glory. The loos there are famous. I was taking a pee in then gents there once when a whole bus load of female American tourists trooped in to take a look (at the architecture, not at me peeing).

If you want to sample the finest ales, it has to be the tiny Jerusalem Tavern in Farringdon.

For one of Londons oldest pubs visit the labyrinthine Old Cheshire Cheese in Fleet Street.

Re: Visiting daa'aann saafff :-)
 

And if you want good beer, search out the Wenlock Arms near Old Street, which is better than the Jerusalem Tavern.

Unfortunately you have missed the Soho incarnation of the Intrepid Fox, and I haven't tried it out in its new guise near Centre Point yet...
