The Kelham Island Tavern, Sheffield

Only popped in for one, but my first impression (based upon the warning notices that those swearing will be ejected) was that this pub is primarily here for the gentle enjoyment of excellent beer. No music; no fruit machines; no cursing. Just beer. Will definitely go back.

The Blackfriar, Blackfriars

Visited here last Friday. The interior is rather splendid and packs in the tourists. A good choice of ales were on offer and were fairly well-kept, but the wife's G&T was all tonic and no gin. Service is passable, but the perception that this place is a tourist trap making no effort to attract regulars is unavoidable. I give it a 3 only because of it's charming decor inside, but to be honest I would rather not drink here.

The Witness Box, City of London

Awesome breakfasts! Venue of the monthly JPMorgan Breakfast Club offsite for a morning repast of epic proportions.
In the evenings, sitting outside is not to be recommended as the narrow street by the tables is regularly frequented by large lorries turning at the gate that closes the street. Inside, the downstairs bar is snug but can get a little crowded.
