The Old Blue Last, Shoreditch, was built in 1700 as The Last on the site of what had been James Burbage's Theatre. In 1876 Truman's took over and rebuilt the pub. But by the 1970's it was being used as a brothel. Since 2004, it has been a pub/music venue. #boozer@theoldbluelast

Mildly obsessed with this architect's watercolours of London buildings - seriously intricate, and a mix of famous buildings and beautiful hidden parts of the city 💕

Back at London fave, The Grenadier in Belgravia. @GrenadierPub was built in 1720 as the officer's mess for the 1st regiment of foot guards. A tiny pub with a pewter bar, it is hidden down a cobbled mews near Hyde Park.
Sensible Sunday and my first pub outing. My local @JoinersArmsN3 are doing a sterling job under horribly challenging circumstances. The fruit machine has been sprayed and wiped 3 times since I have been here. 🍺 😷
There are a plethora of fantastic pubs in Highgate, but if in the area check out The Duke's Head, a purveyor of interesting indy cask and keg beers and changing pop up kitchens @DukesHighgate@SirenCraftBrew @TapstoneBrewCo @ElectricBearUK #boozers#london

Just sent a case of this beer to No. 10 Downing St.
With a note that it is best enjoyed in rose gardens, whilst discussing all the latest cummings & goings.
I hope the beer gets to @BorisJohnson
