I spotted this one this morning on Twitter and got suckered in with the tag "Never trust a London best pub list that doesn’t include the Blythe Hill Tavern", ok but having swallowed the clipbait I was faced with the immortal line "Here, having a perfect Guinness brought to your table has always been a thing, long before the introduction of pub table service". As well as being historically inaccurate it tipped me off as to how much credibility this list had for serious beer drinkers.Originally Posted by Mobyduck

6/10 for me with the Lord Clyde, SE1 being the most recent, where I confusingly plumped for a pint of a Watneys beer.

Just the two for me(Kings Arms,Lord Clyde).Very poor show for a son of South London.

Possibly 8, not sure about Kings Arms. Blythe Hill Tavern top of that list for me, Dog & Bell next.
Only three in this one, mercifully. Been in the bronze, not really my cup of tea.

Not been to any but it looks like only one is actually a pub.

None for me either.

Ooh - I knocked off the Baskerville in December!! Pleasant enough but certainly not award-winning in my book.
On leaving the bar, I felt a strong blow to the back of my head. Turning round, I discovered it was the pavement
