Where this comes from
We read Google's business data for 1149 London pubs on 22 Oct 2026, covering review topics, rating, hours, busy times and listed features. Pubs here are ranked on rating, weighted toward a typical London pub until they have a few hundred reviews, so a new place with ten five-star reviews cannot top the list. Nobody paid to be here. How we rank has the detail.
Hours, busy times and features come from Google and can change. Check with the pub before a special trip.
