When it comes to drinking, London is unrivaled. Scratch the surface and you'll find a burgeoning craft beer movement, cocktails that are envelope-pushing and wine bars taking the pomp out of plonk. So where do you start? Start with the ones with the most heart. The ones with the story to tell. The ones that are so a part of London, we couldn't imagaine a city without them. In this collection of 111 bars and pubs in London you'll find rooftops, basements, gardens, caves, breweries, distilleries and so much more. You'll find places the locals couldn't let die and venues so impressive, people have done their upmost to keep them under wraps. Picking up this book is the equivalent of stepping through the speakeasy door and marvelling at the cave of hidden, boozy wonders inside. Call it London's best bar crawl yet.

The book is a classical work that has played a significant role in human history, and Alpha Editions aims to preserve its legacy by republishing it in a modern format. The text has been meticulously reformatted and retyped, ensuring clarity and readability, rather than relying on scanned copies of the original. This effort highlights the importance of keeping such essential literature accessible for both present and future generations.

Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
