★★★★★ The book is an excellent tool for finding interesting and historical pubs. The way it has been written and laid out is really helpful for Novices and "experts" to find each public house. It includes nearest tube station information, a short history on each pub, and even helpful little tips on pub etiquette and culture. The illustrations are colourful and the maps of pubs are really clear. An absolute must for someone wanting to have a wander through London pub history. Thoroughly recommend this as a companion on your next London Pub Tours!
★★★★★ What a fantastic book to have! The format is easy to read and the illustrations are absolutely beautiful. It includes so many quick, or longer, pub crawl routes, history and fun facts, trivia and places for comments and ratings on each pub. I enjoy the travel size for convenience but would LOVE if it came in a larger, hard cover, coffee table version as well. I could look at the details of the illustrations for hours, especially how she paints her windows!
Easy to follow, fun, and so informative!
★★★★★ We purchased this guidebook for our trip to London in hopes we'd get to see a few more of the 'local' pubs and learn some facts along the way. We were blown away by the rich history lessons, easy to follow directions, and even info on how to blend in like a local. Highly recommend this book to anyone visiting London who loves a good pint!
