"Good people drink good beer" Hunter S Thompson
I haven't been to any in the last 15-20 years but in the past have been to all except the closed Barnes one, the wine place, the Salisbury and the French House.
Snap. Although I suspect I may well have visited some others during my two spells living in London, in the eighties. I honestly can't remember.
'And where he supped the past lived still. And where he sipped the glass brimmed full' John Barleycorn, Carol Ann Duffy.
I think I have been to all except the Beehive in Barnes due to it being closed, The French House as I probably thought it was a restaurant and the Wine Shades.

The 2016 Good Food Guide includes a list of it's top 50 pubs, although one assumes that will be based on the food being served and hence may not correspond with the views of the regulars on this forum.

Regretably, as someone who enjoys eating good meals in pubs as well as driniking beer in them, I have only been to two, The Pony & Trap and The Hinds Head. The Kingham Plough is definitely on my "to do" list though.
