The Pig and Butcher, Islington

Watched the Rugby there on Saturday. Reasonable choice of beers but nothing special. But a good atmosphere and not too smoky. Also was enough space for everyone to comfortably move around.

Would recommend it.

The Porterhouse, Covent Garden

Love the pub. Good selection of beers (especially the Germn Weissber) and always an interesting social experience.

Only problem I have with it is the generic English people who insist on going there and then complaining about everything. Fortunately all of us "braying antipodeans" generally drown them out and they can only whinge on here. Let's be thankful for small mercies.

The Wellington, Strand

Spent part of boxing day there (the only pub we could find open prior to midday). Good service, good beer, were happy to change the channel over to show some sport. We ended up the dar end near to the open fire which was magnificent on a cold day.

Woudl highly recommend
