I doubt pubs round here would bat an eyelid at anyone wearing black tie, especially not one in fairly close proximity to the Royal Albert Hall.

Just The Three Chimneys for me,and for the last 48 years! Something of a love hate relationship,as it is not as it was.Plus point,all cask beers are served from Gravity,minus point, their temperature control is erratic,so my visits tend to be in Autumn or Winter.
Also, the walk looks a bit roady for me.
Just the Three Chimneys for me, and that was long ago when it was decidedly unspoilt. I remember being slightly disappointed when the aged agricultural in the corner, who looked like he had left his carthorse outside, drove off in a Range Rover!
