Ok, let's be having you, a celebration of the Public House.
Here goes.

I'll start the ball rolling with The Evening Star in Brighton.
Tucked away just down the road from the station.
Cracking selection of ales, craft beers & ciders, nice ambience, friendly staff & great background music.

About to partake in a pint of Sonic Titan cider.

Charters - Peterborough. Good selection of real Ales & walking distance to London Road when we play them again.

Greyhound - Bromham, really good for food, and the only pub left in the village where I grew up.

For foodies, the Blue Bell at Glinton, really nice for food and has guest beers

The Goodmanham Arms, Goodmanham nr Brough, East Yorks

The Corn Dolly, Bradford, West Yorks

The Butcher's Dog
&
The Crooked Tap
Both Driffield, East Yorks

The Hunters Arms, Linton/Lynmouth, Devon

The Sheffield Tap, Platform One, Sheffield Train Station

All of these have good well kept beers, loads of guest ales or craft beers, think nearly all of them accept dogs {and not just the ones you've pulled}, most of them are slightly dishevelled, a bit tatty and have onsite microbrewery or close links to local produce/beers.

Also appears I only rate pubs that begin with ''The''. Although that must be one of the most common starting words for a good chunk of watering holes  Pint Pint Pint

The Soho Inn, Studley (a lot of good memories from there). Now called the Black Dog Inn. Reminded me of the Slaughtered Lamb back in the day  Cheesy

Glue Pot - Saturday diversion before a game.

They do very bloody lovely ''Spicy Toasties'' as well as a decent Beef Cob {sorry, that's bap or roll} too. Although I think you might clear the place out of you had a few of them Flash  Cheesy

The Three Owls- Irish Town, Gibraltar 1985- 1987. Instigated many a hangover in there.

Followed closely by finishing the evening in either Bucaneers or Penelopes. Great 80's clubs for the discerning serviceman.

Used to like 'The Barge' at Seend, before it was fucked up.

Jim & Dilys were the slightly eccentric but lovely landlords.
