Lucky Dip

Convincing and atmospheric re-creation of a dark 18th-c tavern (1720 merchant's house with shopfront added 1810), tiny dimly lit bar, simple wood furnishings on bare boards, some remarkable old wall tiles, coal fires and candlelight, stairs to a precarious-feeling (though perfectly secure) balcony, plainer back room, full range of St Peters beers tapped from casks, good lunchtime food, friendly attentive young staff; can get very crowded at peak times, no children; dogs welcome, seats out on pavement, open all day during the week, cl wknds, bank holidays, 24 Dec-2 Jan

This is a very friendly, cosy pub with a lot of character, but for me, the beer has got to be the "star of the show". St. Peters' beers are just excellent!

The Jerusalem Tavern is a traditional pub serving a great selection of ales that is steeped in history.

It's located in the heart of EC1 and caters for the local media community and trendy locals as well as the distinguished and well-weathered pub goer. I really enjoyed my last visit and will return again for sure.

This is a pub that screams personality. You'll love the quirky details and aesthetic charms that make this venue unique so make sure you visit it the next time you're in London.
