boast a rare central riverside terrace - inevitably it's often mobbed by tourists.

London's only surviving galleried coaching inn, dating from the seventeenth century,
and now owned by the National Trust. Expect lots of wonky flooring, half-timbering, a
good range of real ales and a fair smattering of tourists.

noon-10.30pm.

Handsome corner pub by Borough Market, with an interesting range of real ales and de-
cent food. Outrageously popular, as evidenced by the masses that spill out onto the sur-
rounding pavements.
