All the Bristol ones, Stroud, Cheltenham and O'Sheas in Manchester so 6 in total without digging too much into some places I've been before records began as nothing springs to mind.

11 for me, but looking at some of the names on the list that I'd been in, it probably shows how long it was since I visited them as they could hardly be considered standout.
"Breakneck speed we drown ten pints of bitter"
Just The Harlequin and Mr Foley's for me. Although the beer in Foley's is usually of a good standard, it's debatably not even the best in Leeds. Ironically, it has a strong local reputation for its support of cider and actually won Leeds CAMRA cider pub of the year in 2015.

10 for me. As I haven't been to London for 8 years after spending about a third of my working life there, some of them are quite a while ago.
A pub is for life not just for Christmas
Based on the 2 I've been to, Chaplins and The Two Brewers, this is a pretty uninspiring list.
'Beer is for all day, not just for breakfast'.
It's high time that this thread saw some tafarnau Gymraeg so here goes :-

I've been to six and am not sure about the Bull in Beaumaris
No Sign - Swansea
Black Boy - Caernarfon
Tiny Rebel - Cardiff
Albion - Conwy
Ship & Castle - Aberystwyth
Old Arcade - Cardiff
The only one from the distant past is the Old Arcade. I've stood outside the Druid at Goginan when it was shut.
I can think of two that really should be on the list and are not.
One,The Harp at Old Radnor.We shall probably try the Stackpole Inn in September. None from my misspent youth in the 1970s'.mind you, they were grim then.
"At that moment I would have given a kingdom, not for champagne or hock and soda, or hot coffee but for a glass of beer" Marquess Curzon of Kedlestone, Viceroy of India.
Impressive use of a foreign language. (I know Wales is part of the UK, but "Wales" comes from a word meaning "foreign" in Proto-Germanic.)
Oh, and just Skirrid Inn, The Bull, The Bear, The Ship and Castle. Took a photo of the Ancient Briton, but I don't think that counts.
