please show off by telling everyone where your favourite pub in the world is

my other thread has turned into a battlefield, and all I wanted was a pub.

But nevermind that - you just tell me your fave, out of all of the pubs in the world



  • The pub that I have in my house in the cotswolds.

  • the Hobbit, Southampton

    Goblets, Southampton
    The Black Boy, Winchester

    • the black boy?

      jesus. dont get many outsiders round there then?

      • it's the best place to hold our meetings

        there's evening a hanging tree in the beer garden

  • The Salmon and Ball on the corner off

    Bethnal Green Road and Cambridge Heath Road is empircally the best pub in the world

    • My mate used to live above there.

      It's not even the best pub in Bethnal Green.

      • I don't like that place

        i mean it's convenient for a last pint before i trek home but it smells.

      • Lies lies lies

        What other pub in the world delivers such high quantity of ROCK

  • The Circus Tavern in Manchester

    I've genuinely never been anywhere else like it. It's a proper time warp of a pub. Not much of a choice in the way of beers but that's a secondary concern.

    I'm also very fond of the Lass O'Gowrie off Oxford Road.

    • where is the circus tavern?

      never been.
      Lass O'Gowrie is good

      • Portland Street

        just past Piccadilly, close to Chorlton Street coach station and Chinatown. It's so small you could quite easily miss it unless you were really looking.

        • o you mean that tiny place

          thats like the size of a small bathroom. next to the chippie? you walk in and nearly slam straight into the barman?

          • that's precisely it

            it's like going back 40 years. It attracts all sorts of people as well - Mark and Lard used to drink in there, and David Lloyd mentioned it whilst commentating on the Test cricket a few weeks back.

    • Need to go back to the Lass...

      ...Lots of board games to play!

      Also The Kings Arms in Salford and the Marble Arch on Rochdale Road.

      • it's a really nice pub

        old-school pubs ftw. Decent choice of beers in there too, which is usually a deal-breaker for me.

        The Marble Arch is great, but it's just a little too far out of town for me to trek to usually. My dad used to work at the gas board place on Gould Street and I ended up being dragged in there loads as a kid. Didn't appreciate it so much then obv.

        • ooh i dunno

          they do have chocolate beer - kids can drink that right? you could throw stuff at the marble from my other half's window. of course we generally just walk over there for a pint instead. we're gonna get fat on beer far too quick...

  • YATES WINE LODGE

    any town

    • I ordered a burger from a Yates's once

      it came on a baguette ffs. It was an unforgivable mismatch and I haven't been back to one since

      • :D

        They only need to look at the serving sugggestion! Idiots.

        Here's some soup...in a yorkshire pudding!

        • that sounds pretty good though

          • Yeah, I didn't think that one through.

            Hmmm. Here's some baked beans...in a pint glass!

            • chuck in a sausage and you get a savoury ninety nine though !

              • Excellent stuff.

            • YUM!

              so long as they're cold beans and i get a spoon to eat them with

      • it was a bizarre experience

        I spent ages squinting at it in disbelief, wondering if someone had spiked my pint with LSD or something. In the end I just concluded that Yates's were simply awful places almost entirely staffed by retards.

  • The Birch Hall Inn, Beck Hole

    its in a relly pretty location in the middle of know where and not only sells a cheap real ale and all that good stuff, but it has a sweet shop conected to it.

    • "know where"

      no i dont. do tell

      • Beckhole

        derrrrrrr

        near Goathland in North Yorkshire up on the moors in a vally nera heartbeat country as most people know it as.

        • sorry

          was just making a joke on your spelling: "location in the middle of know where"

  • golden fleece, mansfield road, notts

    • I use to go there lots

      I lived just up the road a little bit from it when I was a student there. Its a pretty good pub. Sat up on the roof garden bit for ages over one summer.

      • IPA and a killer roast

        damn straight.

        • oh yeah man

          the roasts are ace and the booze selection is wicked your right.

          It was my local for about a year.

  • The Foundry, Old Street

    Purely for Worm Lady.

  • pubs

    think its called the Queens Head, and its by the tennis courts in brook green (which is between shepherds bush and hammersmith). only been there once, but its hard to beat. also the social is nice, but cramped. oh and the defectors weld as i met my girlfriend there. oh, and the champion in notting hill.

    • Ma Cameron's

      In Aberdeen.

      Food's crap but the place is ace.

  • Cloisters, Edinburgh

    See also: The Craignure Inn on the Isle of Mull.

  • The Asparagus,

    Battersea.

  • My favourite pub is The Charles Bradlaugh in Northampton

    it makes me feel safe and warm.

    but honourable mentions go to The Carpenters Arms near Brick Lane and this little bar in Barcelona above a dental hygienists.

    • The Fullback in Finsbury Park

      mainly because it's local but also because it's just splendid

      • I like that place

        but I've yet to go in when it's not RAMMED.

  • The White Bear

    In Bristol. Amazing burgers, and they ahve a roulette game where you can win your whole round fo free. And a massive fuck of palstic white bear stuck on the front. Awesome.

    • where dat?

      • It's at the top of...

        bollocks, my memory is failing me. Cotham, I think the area is? St. Michaels Hill, I think. Go drink there and have a cheeseburger, they are amazing.

  • Fav pub, the Point House, Angle Pembs.

    Gets cut off by the tide, handy excuse when the missus says "come on drink up we're going home" ah ha no we're bloody not luv !

  • Lubu Dubu in Krakow or The Acorn in York

  • The Black Cross, Bromsgrove

    a 16th century coachhouse that King Charles allegedly once hid in, now populated almost exlusively by goths, bikers and freaks with a jukebox that never works. Also serves the best pint of Diesel in the country.

  • In no particular order, my top 5...

    The Arkle, Stanley Park, Liverpool.

    The Ava, Dufferin Street, Bangor, Northern Ireland.

    The Royal Oak, Bethnal Green, London.

    The Temple, Oxford Road, Manchester.

    The Beehive, Dykes Hall Road, Sheffield.

  • Can someone confirm if 'The Village' in Walthamstow

    is a well-known gay pub or not?

  • Just off one the Virgin Islands

    there is a flaoting bar called Willie Tee's.

    You get drunk, lick whip cream off each other and jump off the top deck into the sea.
