Location : Old Barrack Yard, Wilton Row Nearest Tube (Underground) Station : Hyde Park Corner An extremely well hidden pub tucked away in a mews behind the grand houses of Knightsbridge, this attractive little place used to be a regular drinking haunt of the Duke of Wellington.

Location: Wine Office Court (off Fleet Street) The traditional view of a good English pub tends to evoke visions of oak beams, open fires, ancient crooked rooms and dark cosy interiors. It's a strange fact that with nearly 5,500 pubs, London has only a very small number of such establishments.

Location: 15 Selwood Terrace Nearest Tube (Underground) Station: South Kensington A superb pub, which surprisingly despite salubrious area is part of London's gangster past: this is where the Great Train Robbery was planned! This pub has no TV's, no fruit machines and no music which is often the sign of a decent boozer.

Location : 173-174 Upper Street Nearest Tube (Underground) Station : Angel This is the place to go if Continental beer is your thing. Even if it's not there are over 200 to chose from so I'm ...

Location: 174 Queen Victoria Street Nearest Tube (Underground) Station: Blackfriars One of London's most bizarre pubs and a favourite of Sir John Betjeman, a much loved Poet Laureate, The Blackfriar is a fantasy of art nouveau decoration recalling the monks of the eponymous monastery that stood nearby.

Location: 337 Whitechapel Road Tube: Whitechapel Part of London folklore, this is the pub where Reggie Kray shot George Cornell (the murder that finally put the Krays, London's most notorious gangsters, in prison for good).

Location: 119 Kensington Church Street Tube: High Street Kensington One of London's best pubs (voted Evening Standards pub of the year). You can't get more English than this: the walls are ...

Location: 22 High Holborn Tube: Holborn The huge Victorian clock on the front of this building suggests that there may be something of interest behind the façade. A pub has stood here since around 1430 and continues to serve the needs of barristers and solicitors from the nearby chambers.

Location: Claridge's Hotel, Brook Street Tube: Bond Street Beautifully calming, elegant, chic little bar in arguably London's most prestigious hotel. If you enter through the main door of the hotel, you'll be greeted by a phalanx of liveried doormen, footmen and valets.

Location: 44-46 Cranbourne Street Tube: Leicester Square A London stalwart, the Cork and Bottle is a very welcome relief from the barrenness of Leicester Square. You'll have a problem finding the place as you need to descend from street level.
