Ah yes, Covent Garden, it's practically Lagos.

Stay out of multicultural Newham Sparky.

One shot dead in Canning Town yesterday morning

and another one shot dead in Forest Gate today.

Lagos much safer Sparky !

MARVELLOUS STUFF FFS!!!

Well I almost take that as a dare! How far from Wimbledon are these exciting resorts?

The Angel, Covent Garden fancyapint.com rated3 pints

This is a lovely Victorian pub in the gay area between Covent Garden (Shaftesbury Avenue) and Tottenham Court Road.

It does food, which is a bit basic, and not the best representation of a Sam Smith's pub. It's serves the usual Sam Smith's fare and is very reasonably priced for central London. It's obviously had complaints from local residents, as the beer garden now closes promptly at 5.15pm. The bar staff can appear a little miserable, but apparently that's par for the course when you work for a brewer from Yorkshire. Anyway, don't let that put you off though - definitely worth a look.

sorry .......... that should read grey area :p

dont drop a pound on the floor :(

Now don't all get excited!

London...i live there and love it!...its the centre of life,brilliant place to live,,,,,if it aint in London it doesnt excist!...whatever it is.
Best capital in the World...

Matinee good time to go then enjoy the evening ,covent garden can be a bit lively of an evening,Leicester square can be a complete shyte hole ...

Good for you! I've very much enjoyed it every time I've been, and all the friends who live their love it too. I guess it's where and in what circumstances though.

How long u lived in london golf ?

Since i was 32 case...now 60

case...we're old friends meeting up after too long, so ideally we want a quiet bar, if you can recommend any it would be appreciated.

You looking for a local type pub spark?

All the bars are quiet as the smokers stay at home.

Not bothered really golfnut...basically just somewhere we can get served reasonably quickly, isn't very noisy or too expensive. We'd be happy sitting in the park and drinking cans from the co-op!

Get the tube to Angel,6/7 min walk down Upper Street and just turn off of the side roads....there are 3 or 4 nice bars easily found,on a Sat Upper Street area is ok....you will find no "quiet" place in CV on a Saturday night....

Failing that there are plenty of nice park benches for you!.....enjoy your Tennants extra!

Ive not drank in town for years Spark ,probably be sending u to boozers they have knocked down :^0 ,I used to drink in a pub called the old bell in fleet street ,like stepping back in time when u go in there ,but its probably
all changed,there was another little bar attached to the waldorf hotel on the aldwych ,but they probably charge a tenner a pint these days :-( nice bar ,if the Old Bell is as it was well worth a visit u can walk there in
10 mins or cab about a 5er ,and would be quiteish at the weekend ..

Erm, the Pub is The Angel...don't feel bad, others have made the same mistake!

Thanks case

Sam Smith's pubs are one of the better chains, not a bad pick.

good stuff

The Grapes is a lovely boozer

The Grapes is a lovely boozer

I may have to revisit this thread tomorrow morning! Well, this morning!

most of the pubs on fleet street are quite at the weekends ,couple of boozers on whitehall that are near each other if u fancy a mini crawl
one is the old shades ,lot of tourists about :-) all within a few minutes of covent garden ..

i know the pub is the Angel ffs.....thats why i said take the tube....i was trying to give you an alternative....

have a good one ,whatever :-)

lol ok golfnut, thanks!

Not so much after a crawl, it's just old friends meeting up.

Cheshire Cheese pub on Fleet Street worth a visit. Straight out of Dickens' times, cheap as ***** if you can get a good sport in the front room should get served pretty quickly. A hidden gem of London town.

At last....I have a chance of taking out the so called Sparkmaster......what method should I use......hmmmm...

Keele University's loss will mean chit chat's release from his inane warblings.......ha ha........ha ha...

Oooops......I joke ofcourse.......he's a fine fellow...

There is a little pub with a 'Bay window' just opposite the side door of The Theatre Royal on Drury Lane. I watched the racing their about 6 weeks ago on a Saturday afternoon. Very friendly and welcoming.

Where are you going EGG? x
