This one's all boarded up - same as the <a href="http://fancyapint.com/pubs/pub50.html">St Paul's Tavern</a> at the other end of the old Whitbread Brewery. From what we've discovered, the whole block is...
There must be something of a recovery going on, because the Wood Street Bar and restaurant is another abandoned pub rescued recently. The Old Crowders Well, the previous incarnation, was a bit of an oddity - an...

This place has hardly changed over the years - it's been shut for years now - thanks for reminding us...
The Hand & Shears is a great little pub, which, despite it's diminutive proportions, is still divided up into public, private and saloon bars - a real rarity these days. It hasn't changed in years, decades even, though we...
No longer a pub, this is now the Chiswell Street Dining Rooms
We haven't been in the Two Brewers for awhile and it has changed a lot! It's had a refurb but is still a traditional pub with little sign of moving towards the gastro zone. While it's still very local in flavour, we suspect it...
Pretty grotty City pub on London Wall. A dismal, uninspired clash of 60's international style. 70's Brutalism and 80's olde worlde pubbe. Usual range of beers, lots of games machines, TVs and toys to keep the City boys happily...
A new basement bar on the edge of the City of London. It appears most of the beer is bottled, but we'll get along and have a look.
Having become a bit of a landmark in the Smithfield area, this is still one of those places where it's more about image than experience. The food and drink is nothing special, although it's presented competently enough and the...
A large pub situated under an office block in the sixties development around the old London Wall. We've known this pub for quite a while now, and it's had a couple makeovers in the last few years trying to keep up with the...
A new(ish) City pub with lots of regular events. We'll have to get along and see what it's like.
The Hat and Feathers has been a semi-famous <a href="http://www.derelictlondon.com/id925.htm" target="_blank">derelict</a> monument for a number of years now, the grandeur of its exterior slowly...
The Rising Sun is an old and attractive, traditional pub hidden away in a Dickensian-looking alley next door to the magnificent and historic <a href="http://www.greatstbarts.com/"...
This one's been here a few years and it proved popular with the local workers - the usual City crowd from the financial institutions spread around it. What puzzles us slightly is that not long ago, another one opened not two...
Now part of the reinstated Taylor Walker chain, we've known The Raglan for a long time. The Tardis-like interior opens up as you enter the pub, seemingly much larger on the inside than out. There's a decent enough range of real...
Apart from one disastrous incarnation (as the Long Lane) we've long been fans of the the Old Red Cow, it's a handsome, quirky, old building that's always had a cheery aspect to it. And we're in illustrious company as it was...
Not a great deal has changed during the makeover of this vast, split-level pub. Now part of the Barracuda chain, the only really noticeable difference is the introduction of plasma screen TVs above the bar so that Cittee folk...
Done up (since the Old Monk showed up next door) to try and compete and so much more popular with the lady suits now. It's a Fullers so the food is good but you can't help feeling that the interior design ideas of the Fine Line...
This is one of those pubs we've been in lots of times but keep forgetting to review - it's nothing out of the ordinary. It's okay as far as pubs go with a fairly standard drink selection and a smallish interior. The tables on...
