Just the Olde Cheshire Cheese, The George and Spaniards Inn for me although probably a few to add to the "to do" list.
Martyn Cornell did a hatchet job in his blog on an London Irish pub making similar daft claims, all part of the fun of being an historian.
Mirroring BF, all but Ye Olde Wine Shades and Spaniards Inn.

Not quite - you seem to have omitted The Tipperary Fleet Street, EC4 (which should have been listed in 4th place, with The Grapes and The Guinea being tied in 10th place)!
