picture of HarpGiven that drinking real ale in the middle of London can often result in a Wetherspoon's experience, this little freehouse so close to Trafalgar Square comes as something of a surprise. The regular ales are Timothy Taylor Landlord, Harvey's and Black Sheep, with two guest beers - and some powerful ciders - also on offer. The pub's tasty sausage (there are several varieties to choose from) sandwiches do the business too. This one fills up most evenings but if you can find a seat, or catch it at a quieter time, we recommend a visit. Keep an eye out for the oil paintings - the one of a young James Mason is especially fine.
