Having just come back from a while down south for my son's wedding, I would have to add the Swan at Inkpen to my five....but then that would be six....ah well

No bother, HR.  As starter of the thread, I'll let you have a sixth!  The unofficial TEF 'Good Pub Guide' continues to grow.

That was the one pub in Ashburton I never went in when I lived there, went in the other 6 pubs but never that one. For a small town, it had a fair few pubs  Beers

UPDATED LIST

1) Tiger Lilly's - Edinburgh
2) Beehive - Swindon
3) Black Horse - Upper Wanborough
4) St. James Tavern - London (Tourist Trap though)
5) Heart In Hand - Blunsdon


Tiger Lily's in Edinburgh is awesome but crazy expensive - quality eye candy though.

All pubs in the grassmarket are spot on, but to be fair, all of Edinburgh is spot on!

If we are adding to lists, I would like to add the Anchor Inn at Oldbury-on-Severn.  Lovely beers, good food, and a boule court in the garden - a great way to relax in the sun while getting gently and slowly sozzled.

Was disappointed that on our camper van tour of Silverstone, Cornwall and Glastonbury I found my way there through the narrow lanes only to find it shut on a Monday lunchtime. Long way to go to try again

Thoroughly enjoyed the Cafe Royal in Edinburgh, sadly the Dark Island was only on for the first half of the week.  Did a lovely Haggis and whiskey cream pie, too.

Cafe Royal in Edinburgh is a cracker.  The Beehive in the Grassmarket is also excellent around that part of town.  If you fancy going upmarket then the Blue Bar is also lovely and if you want to risk a bit of a kicking then by all means try the Shakespeare. For afters then the Omar Khayam at Haymarket station and if you feel adventurous Hanam's Kurdish restaurant are also highly recommended.

Another good pub along the similar lines of the British Lion is The Lamb in Devizes, a cracking little pub where everything appears to be £3.  Has a very good jukey and a good little pool room too.

Fuck yeah! My favourite pub of all time, so many good nights in there. The place had a bad reputation for some reason, but I always found everyone really friendly, especially when Ailsa & George were running the place.

Somebody had also mentioned the Hare & Hounds in Devizes, again another really friendly place. My parents drink in there, so I've been there loads of times! I do miss Jan being landlady though.

Strangely never got on with the British "The Fighter" Lion.
