The Red Lion

This very well hidden pub is a commitment to a very old London pub tradition of squeezing the smallest tavern into the most tight street in the world and then putting it on the map. The place is little more than a small cosy room with a scattering of tables, a bar and some stools. The selection of drinks is small and unappitizing but the place is a unique charm. The barman even keeps himself a copy of the Fancyapint’s guide in London Pubs and is used to seeing a variety of travellers in here. The gents toilets are down the narrowest set of stairs you ever saw in a miniature cellar and the locals populating the pub are hearty, cheerful and welcoming.
Overall a sweet small pub, where the barman makes cheese n pickle sandwiches for his punters but hand on the bar and the tequila shots are reasonably priced. For that spice of friendliness, hard to come by with such tradition - bring a couple of friends on down - 6/10
