Grab A Pint In A Traditional Boozer

It doesn't get more traditional – The Grapes

In this hustling and bustling London life we live in, sometimes you need to stop and take a step back. And when we say back, we mean back to the tradition of the classic British pub. Filled with fish and chips, pie and mash, ale, and that welcoming buzz we all know and love. Here's just a selection of our favourite traditional London pubs.

Jerusalem Tavern 64 reviews Farringdon 55 Britton Street, London Pubs “I just love this pub. Full of character, old, and thankfully unmodernised. They have a great beer selection and, importantly, very reasonable prices... I always get served quickly since the staff are attentive and keep the place humming along nicely.” Steve B., London

Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese 244 reviews Blackfriars 145 Fleet Street, London Pubs, British Restaurants “Lovely old English pub. No, it really is old. It has lots of charm and, best of all, it's reasonably priced... You should venture downstairs, I've never been to a pub quite like it.” Ami W., Dagenham, London

Holly Bush 103 reviews Hampstead Village 22 Holly Mount, London Pubs, Gastro Pubs “Great old school pub that takes you far away from the hustle and bustle of London... You can truly lose track time there and the food isn't bad either, my last meal of fish and chips was one of the finest I've had in London for a long time.” Steve W., London

Ye Olde Mitre Inn 53 reviews Farringdon 1 Ely Court, London Pubs “Ye Olde Mitre Inn is one of London's oldest pubs. A long-serving place, where drink is the mission, not food. No, this place is a fortress of Londoners and their post-work boozing... a wonderful find indeed. I love this pub and it's one of London's best.” Ben C., London

Ship Tavern 69 reviews Holborn 12 Gate Street, London Pubs “I'm English, and I believe that comes with a certain predisposition towards old man's pubs... and this one really didn't disappoint. There's something quite comforting about discovering one right in the centre of London too.” Clara S., London

The Hemingford Arms 26 reviews Barnsbury 158 Hemingford Road, London Pubs “What a great, truly British pub! I think I've fallen a little bit in love with this place — it reminded me of home... You have your regulars in one corner, your newbies outside on a bench, and everyone else in between.” Bethany W., London

The Grapes 40 reviews Poplar 76 Narrow Street, London Pubs “I love this pub... What a surprise when I've heard that Ian McKellen (Gandalf!) was the owner. I'm going there often and the atmosphere is just like a typical British pub: Cozy, friendly, and with a decent choice of drinks!” Mathieu F., Limehouse, London
