Having lived in London for over 15 years and generally hanging around London for 20 years it is unquestionable that London is home to some of the coolest pubs. The reasons for having so many cool pubs unfolds as you spend more and more time visiting them. Everyone pub offering a different reason to stay for another pint (or glass of wine!). From Tooting in the South to St Johns Wood in the North you can discover why locals moan about which side of the river they are from and what side of the river they prefer. The coolest pubs may be in South ...
The topic of Britains oldest pub has been covered previously and we intend to investigate further the claims made by more than one old pub! The undisputed claim that Shepherd Neame is the oldest brewery has caused some interest in the beer making world. Beer makers throughout the UK have taken for granted that the beer makers of such favourites as SpitFire and Bishops Finger are truly the oldest brewery. However, there has emerged evidence that this claim by Shepherd Neame may be totally unfounded and that the brewery not only knew about this but did play a role in ...
We'd decided to flying visit a few pubs that are in the heart of London. Not a pub crawl more a general assessment of the venues claiming to be top dollar traditional London pubs and venues worthy of hiring for parties. Our planned research could very possibly fail at the first stop as we anticipate the beer being just too good to be dragged away before a 2nd pint! oh yes we love our job and we're looking forward to Xmas and NewYear in London pubs. During Christmas we tackled 3 pubs around the London Bridge area nothing really to report at the ...
The British association of beer makers has promised to continue its fight against the governments plans to hike taxes on beer. Pub Landlords have united against the tax rises and have vowed to maintain a strong defence in favour of offering cheaper beer to the consumer. Organisations such as CAMRA have previously failed to beat the government into submission over taxes on beer. Axe the tax failed miserably. The British public only recently was asked by CAMRA to stump up cash to help them mount legal action against OFT decisions to leave pub rents as they are. All in all the pub ...

It was never easy to decide the best way to do this as there are so many good old fashioned pubs that have been refurbished in London. One way was to visit every pub, have a drink and quality assess for a set number of criteria. Welcoming smile for example, cleanliness, smell (no one likes the smell of stale beer) and character, no point in claiming to be a traditional pub if you have ripped the heart out and made it into a chain looking pub, not mentioning any names cough Wetherspoons. This is what we did decided. We produced a ...
It's the time of year that you had wished you had booked your New Years party 12 months in advance! Despite the recession the lure of a good party venue is too strong, however tight we pull the purse strings we must celebrate the New Year in and be with friends and family and why not. 2009 for most of us has been testing to say the least. Whilst business is as usual for most and profits are still being made we can only look into the future with hope. Greene King this week (02 Decemember 2009) announced £24.2 profits after ...
Yes, it's true the Party season has officially begun but for some people the party never ends. Some great new clubs and bars opened their doors this year and that's not to say traditional pubs are old hat, far from it. But here is a preview of the bars and clubs worth going to for a party.
The pub and bar network across the UK is impressive to say the very least. Despite the many draw backs over the last decade and the decline of the pub industry as a whole the UK still plays host to such a magical and diverse portfolio of pubs and bars. For this reason alone it is so difficult to decide where to go for a quiet pint or even identify a great place for a party. Traditionally pubs were the place to unwind after a days hard work which was more of a male pastime than that of a young lady. Of ...
As businesses turn on their heels and claw back expenses previously spent on luxury hotels for conference venues, pubs and inns are now top of their list for venue choice. Recent research carried out by AM Communications over a 6 month period shows that companies are not prepared to compromise on quality of venue whilst looking to save cash. What this has meant in simple - shopping around for best prices is a time based tasked that can be justified. A recent conference hotel booking for a company in Chelmford Essex fell through after prices for the facilities were too high ...
