26) The Albert Nr St James Park.
I visited hear after finishing some exams. Not a bad place for a drink, the food is very average. 6.5/10.
27) The Buckingham Nr St James Park.
I visited hear after the Albert (above), this pub was a lot quieter, it had nice bar staff but little to offer in the way of atmosphere. 6/10.
28) The Lots Road Pub and Dining Room off the Kings Rd near Fulham Broadway.
It is a light airy pub which serves great food. Whilst it is relaxed, as you would expect it is more of a dining room than a pub. 6.5/10.
29) The Market Porter next to Borough Market.
This is a pleasant little pub. It's busy as a result of all the people visiting the market but certainly gives you a good glimse at one of the better sides of London character. 7/10.
30) The Portobello Gold, Nr Notting Hill.
I didn't eat here but the food looked good. It has a nice pub area at the front and a large area geared more towards dining at the back. It has a strong Character and is a fun place to spend an evening. 7/10.
31) The Anglesea Arms, South Kensington.
This seems to play host to a vast number of wealthy Europeans some of whom seem to go there for a coffee on a Saturday evening, I was quite baffled by this. It is however a busy, lively pub in a great area of London which I have visited since and no doubt will visit again. 7.5/10.
32) The Argyll Arms, Oxford Street.
This pub reminds me of a Saloon with various partitions and paterns of frosted glass. It is not unique in it's character as I have been to several pubs with this style. For me it lacked something that I can't quite put my finger on. 6/10.
33) The Chapel Nr Edgeware Rd.
The is a more modern bar, which my girlfriend at the time quite liked but, as a man looking for a good 'old man' pub loaded with atmosphere and character, this was not the place for me. 6/10.
34) The Crown and Greyhound in Dulwhich.
I went for a good evening pub quiz. The pub had interesting patterned ceilings. Not a bad local. 7/10.
35) The Earl Spencer, Wandsworth.
Nice food but lacked character. 6/10.
36) The Fat Badger, Portobello Rd.
This is a big pub that seemed a little empty. 6/10.
37) The Gun, Docklands.
NAP. I wouldn't bother come here unless you want to eat. Not a very relaxed place for a drink, I couldn't get out quick enough.3/10.
38) The Nags Head, Knightsbridge.
It's a shame to see this little pub which has so much natural character being so poorly run. The food is remeniscent of a school lunch, they won't allow the use of phones, and whilst this would normally be a pleasant quirk in this pub its hard to see the bright side. Whilst there is a lot of old photos and newspaper clipings on the walls, when you see the dust it's easy to get the impression that they are only there because the owners couldn't be bother to remove them. There is a lot of potential here but I did not enjoy my visit. 5/10.
39) The Old Sergeant, Wandsworth.
This is not as good as some of the surroundiong pubs such as GJs or the Tir Na Nog. It is better inside than out with 2 floors. It does show sport too which is good. 6/10.
40) The Barnsbury, Islington.
Friendly atmosphere, sound place to have a pint. 6.5/10.
41) The Orange Brewery near Sloane Square.
This was a very busy but narrow and cramped pub. It had a good vibe though. 6/10.
