The Chandos

Yet another of these independently run pubs on the cuff of Covent Garden, barely looking into Trafalgar square but with enough proximity to pull in flocks of tourists and that’s pretty much all you can expect from this place. The venue is not overcrowded however as many drinkers are not fond of the own-brand cola, beer, cider and you are left with an old wash-house tiled quite big room, with tiny tiny windows surrounding and all the available tables taken up with curious chatty American tourists, eager to understand the best way to consume an entire pint.

Overall not the best idea for either tourist or regular since the variety in the same area is dramatic but for that spice of independence, it fits as long as you don’t mind the contrast chatter of Texan inquisition over your shoulder and waiting for twenty minutes at the bar for a cool one - 4/10
