15 for me, none in recent years and a couple I've never really heard of before, the Plume of Feathers in Greenwich and the White Swan in Twickenham.

Only 5 I can definitely remember, but there are several that seem vaguely familiar.
12 for me that I can remember .....
17 for me, a mixed bunch, good and bad, and they don't come much worse than The Old Bull & Bush.
All but the Old Bull & Bush, I think, although The Spaniards and White Swan were visited before I started reviewing.
Londons best beer gardens.
Only managed 7 of these pubs across all 4 regions, and not necessarily been in the gardens.
From The Grauniad:https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2...ng-walks-in-uk. Haven't done any of the walks,as described, but I've attended 6 of the pubs over the years,including The Wallace Arms in about 1975 or 76. A very rare outlet for cask in those parts then.(Theakstone's I should think, might have been Camerons.)
Two definite ones for me the Blackboys in Sussex which was and still is a Harvey's tied house and the Bryn Tyrch in Capel Curig. This is one of three hotels with climbers / walkers bars stretched along the A5. I haven't been there since the early seventies!
A possible is the Five Horseshoes at Maidensgrove. It's not one of the original Brakspear tied houses which is why I can't be sure.
Not been to any of these,

And quite possibly won't.

Just the two: The Kirkstall Bridge Inn and the Canalhouse.
I'm amazed that you haven't been in Stubbings Wharf in Hebden!!!
Three for me.:cheers:
Only The Dawnay Arms for us,though when we go on our hols the weather is often against riparian delights.
Two for me the Canalhouse in Nottingham and the Bridge at Topsham donkeys years ago. In what way is the Canalhouse a Riverside pub?
Only two for me-
Stubbins and Artichoke (+Harkers, linked from Artichoke)
Only Stubbins is riverside, being in between River Calder and Rochdale Canal.
None whatsoever. :o
As you might expect,most of them :)
Canal House,Crate,Stubbings Wharf and Dawnay Arms (all reviewed ) and The Boat Inn many moons ago.
As the article says The Old Harkers is my usual haunt in Chester ,so have missed the Artichoke.
Inn Deep,Nags Head Inn and Bridge Inn are on rivers not suitable for narrowboats :mad:
Leaving just the Kirkstall Bridge Inn as the major ommission,hopefully corrected shortly when I will be mooring in Leeds.

Britain's best summer pubs, none in Scotland, two in Wales so not that British, the rest are mainly foody, middle class places and the Pandora Inn must be good 'cos it's in twice. I've visited four and incidentally eaten in three of them.
I've done 2 of these, The Lord Poullet and The Halfway House, and much as I hate to agree with the Torygraph, I would indeed put both of those in my top 30. The former scores very highly for food and the latter is faultless on every count.
5 for me, currently winning till Blackthorn looks at the list as I know he's done more I reckon.
Trout Inn
Timbrell's Yard
The Mayflower
Hare & Hounds
The Lord Poulett Arms
Just three, The Little Angel and Five Horseshoes in Henley upon Thames and The Wellington Arms Baughurst, all many moons ago.
I normally do OK with these lists, but just 1 of 30 here - pathetic!
Nil, zilch, none, FA :o
"It highlights micropubs that are a 10-minute walk from a train station"
http://www.kentonline.co.uk/kent/new...-trail-127172/
The are loads of good micro-pubs listed here, but a few are stretching "10-minute walk from a train station" a bit (but still worth the effort in most cases). You can find more details here: Kent Rail Ale Trail.
This list throws up the old question as to what is a micropub. Having visited Teesside earlier in the year I've completely lost the plot with this subject. However, surely one just selling keg is not a micropub? I'm thinking of the twelve taps in Whitstable. To me Fuggles in T Wells isn't a micropub but I made that call before going to Teesside!! There's quite a few I've not been to on this list. The trouble is it costs me more to go to Kent than the West Midlands and the beer is more expensive.
