London Pub Crawl

tomparker95 · 6 Jan 2014 at 15:24

Mates birthday soon and I've been designated organiser! Can someone spec me a pub crawl with around 6/7 pubs. The nearer London Victoria the better! Thanks. Feel free to give other suggestions too in regards to pub crawls..

Nevermind a bar crawl, go here http://thechurchlondon.com/ then head to one of the after parties or the walkabout at Shepards bush.

That looks intresting. Would still rather a pub crawl

Thanks for the suggestion though will keep it mind !

tom_e · 6 Jan 2014 at 15:31

It's brilliant!
Highly recommend it at least once just for the experience if nothing else.

Much more of a pub kinda person than a club person though. He wouldn't like it, and at the end of the day it's his birthday

There are some here close to Victoria:

Or you could make your own from this:

^ Cheers Cosimo. Second link is annoying because it doesn't state how far from Victoria. Will have to do some research though as it lists a lot of pubs!

Off trail but i do love a bit of beer roulette at The Porterhouse in Covent Garden.

Can't say I know around Victoria but when ever I've been in London I head straight for Camden, always fun

If it's Wednesday to Saturday then plan the pubs around ending the night at The Box, Soho.

Victoria is a useless location for a pub crawl IMO.

For the kind of night you seem to be after, I think it would have to be Soho, Highbury/ Angel, or Shorditch.

What pubs in Shoreditch? Thought it was a bit grim round there? I have no idea about London

There are lots of areas covered.

Hasn't the SHEBU Walkabout closed?

Possibly, the last time I was down there was April.

Edit: Just had a look and it appears it closed in October

Shoreditch sounds good. Cheers

Eliot · 6 Jan 2014 at 16:57

Nought wrong with Shoreditch at all these days

Why not select a theme then do a subcrawl? Get on the underground (subway is what we call it up here), and get off at each stop and go to the closest pub for a pre-designated drink. It's good fun, and you get to see parts of the city you probably don't normally!
Failing that, try and complete a Monopoly board in pubs...

tomparker95 · 6 Jan 2014 at 18:25

That sounds like a cool idea. Also thought of Camden/Covent Garden possibly. Realised that Victoria isn't realistic so will just travel around. Thanks Ahleckz

How about a monopoly pub crawl? Arrange the locations so you move east to west and then finish off in a club if needed.
