The Dickens Inn, Tower Hill

firm favourite when on a daytrip to London. tourists? yes, but then i guess i am one just for the day! interior looks knacked through dirt and poor care rather than age. but its all about the frontage onto the dock, which is picture perfect. always on bottled beer here so can comment really. not that many pubs in the area so always seems to be packed solid.

Coopers Arms, Hitchin

nice old traditional pub. beers are fine, though nothing out of the ordinary selection wise. been to a few good parties there, the perfect place for Christmas Eve etc..

Ivory, Hitchin

This bar opened Christmas 2005 and it seems perfect for Hitchin - upmarket, but not out of reach, smart but not too classy, just like the town itself really. THE place to be these days, the que reaches right down the road at weekends, Saturday in particular is packed as its open till 2am. Great music and large selection of drinks, would have given it 10/10 but loose a point for not selling Magners! WTF?
