A proper old-school pub (it opened in 1826!) with wood panelling and a beer garden, serving real ales, cider and English wines. Don’t leave without playing a game of bar skittles. It’s like going bowling, but you can do it with a pint in one hand – score!
London is awash with so many great bars and pubs that you could make a good game out of trying to visit every one. But if you’re looking for something a little easier to complete, many of those haunts come ready with a plethora of different activities for you to try your hand at between eating and drinking. Whether shuffleboard, darts, pool or board gaming is your speed, you’ll find a cosy – or buzzing – spot in the city to show off your skills and partake in a very laidback bit of sport.
