Historic Pub Tour
Overview of the tour in London
London has many excellent traditional pubs serving a good range of drinks and serving good food but also many very historic pubs, some haunted! On this tour we visit five of these historic pubs, each with its own unique atmosphere to take you back in time. To get the best from each pub it is best to have a relaxed drink and if you wish we give you plenty of time to do this and of course in the past pub you are welcome to stay and enjoy as we finish very close to a tube station. We start in a pub where Queen Elizabeth I is said to have danced around a tree then later a pub where time stands still! We visit a pub rebuilt after the Great Fire of 1666 and a favourite of Dr Johnson, Charles Dickens, Mark Twain etc and was once a brothel and we finish in an exceptional Art Deco pub that reminds us of the area’s history using marble and copper.
I have purposely kept the group small as a couple of pubs are small but often busy, so giving time to get served. Hopefully everyone will have an enjoyable social evening and see some of London’s amazing history while doing so.
