What's your favourite boozer and why?

The White Lion on Putney High St.
Was living in London in the '80s and went in there on the way home one Saturday after seeing City lose at Crystal Palace. Sat at the bar feeling miserable and this American lass asked why was i so glum, and then the evening got better. She just asked "wonder if that pub is still there?"

Suffolk CAMRA pub of the Year 2023?

Hold on, they do folk music and Morris.

Just an occasional afternoon thing in the week usually, and easily avoidable.

Since having kids. My local boozer is my living room. Good choice of ales, good view of the TV, no rags or dippers, and always the outside chance of copping off with the barmaid.

I remember her. Spent more time in the gents than behind the bar. Give her my regards, Big Bob.

Was it called The Wagon and Horses before it became Mulligans?

My favourite pub is the Trackside at the old train station in Bury
Great selection of beers and you get the steam trains pulling up as you drink your pint
Also have fond memories of drinking there with my dad and family before he passed away in 2020
Something that I love about train stations and drinking a pint there

The Dog and Partridge in Titchmarsh was the best pub for many years, alas like so many gone now.
The Nags Head in Wollaston
The Kings Head in Wadenhoe
The ship in Oundle
The King Billy in Northampton

Now The Royal Wolf in Driggs( i can walk there)
Dave's pub in Tetonia

Two King Billy,s in Northampton,one down the bottom of Bridge st and one in Kingsthorpe sadly now closed.

Just to go off on a tangent - I'm back for the weekend in Manchester with a mate. My usual boozers in town are Revolution on Deansgate Lock, Albert's Schloss and Peaky Blinders (good atmosphere on a Saturday night).

Given that we're here for two nights, I'd like to try somewhere new. I'm not arsed about real ales really. I just want to drink lager in new surroundings. We were thinking of a night around the Northern Quarter tonight but I'm open to suggestions. Inspire me my fellow Cellarites...
