What a week! Bank holiday merging into election fever and still we don't really know who's running the country. Mull it over this May in one of Fancyapint's top ten pubs visited last month. All these pubs stuck in the tenancious and discerning reviewers' minds as excellent boozers, for a variety of reasons. Agree? Disagree? Let us know in the comments. And if you think you know your pubs, get over the fancyapint.com and have a go at reviewing yourself.
The Seven Stars' Tom Paine by dalekhelen
Simply a good pub that happens to sell pretty fantastic food.
- The Seven Stars (Holborn)
A very popular old boozer, especially with legal eagles and a celebrity cat.
- The Grapes (Limehouse)
We just can't keep away from here...
- Mucky Pup (Angel)
It's the sort of boozer you want to keep just for you and your mates.
- Harcourt Arms (Marble Arch)
Can't comprehend the ice hockey? No problem, this is a fine pub.
- Dartmouth Arms (Forest Hill)
For once, a pub that's much improved after from going gastro.
- Rosemary Branch (Hoxton)
Plenty of decent ales plus a dash of culture, for good measure.
- Devonshire Arms (Kensington)
One is one to seek out for a pleasant, sunny afternoon.
- Blythe Hill Tavern (Catford)
Five real ales, a good drop of the black stuff and racing on the telly - need we say more?
- Windsor Castle (Marble Arch)
History, celebrity, royalty, eccentricity, good Thai food and a decent pint - all in one pub.
