I love London and I love pubs — but as a tourist, my time in London is always too short and I can’t keep up with the changing pub scene from afar. “The Pub Lover's Guide to London” is a great mashup of the city’s history and culture, and how those relate to the 7,000 pubs within London's metropolitan area. The book showcases 52 pubs the authors consider worthy of a visit and puts them into both geographical and historical context. If I lived in London, I’d go to one a week but, as it is, I'll use this book to plan a few into my next visit.

I don't drink alcohol, but I love England, I love pubs, I love history, and I love this book! I was so excited to see this book because I am visiting London next month, and I hope I get to see some of the pubs I read about. The book is technically about pubs, but it has so much more. There are clear explanations of several important parts of British history, along with the context of changes over time in the city. I learned about hundreds of years of politics, disease, and other important events. The most hilarious thing was how many pubs claim to be the oldest.

What a great book for both Londoners and tourists. Having travelled to London recently, there were so many pubs to chose from that I would have wanted this book in my pocket for both the concise history of London and to visit pubs connected with various historical events for enjoying a pint. Broken down by 13 various categories such a religion, crime and punishment even conquest, Callum Moy shares a sense of London past with the ability to enjoy a little piece of it today. The information provided about the ales served and food was also helpful. And the photos are great!

I love London and this was a perfect book The Pub Lover's Guide to London by Callum Moy had great history and information about the Pubs. Included were some great photos. My favourite was learning about the Sherlock Holmes Pub.

This is an absolute beaut of a book. This would be the best gift for my dad or husband they would love all the history tidbits and the photos are stunning. This is definitely a conversation starting book to have out as décor or just enjoy.

The Pub Lover's Guide to London by Callum Moy Had me absolutely intrigued as I have spent many a weekend enjoying the more "fluid" aspects of London but mostly around the Camden area (I was so very surprised when The Worlds End and Dingwalls were not featured due to their cultural significance to the music and comedy scene, but maybe next time?) Nevertheless, I dived in and what a joy!

I am going to be following this book as a guide next trip as one thing I have not done is explored some of these locations in detail (I am especially keen to visit St Mary Axe, more for the literary reference than historical to be fair, but the historical is a plus!

The photography is wonderful and I especially liked the composition capturing the grandeur and pagentry of the Trafalgar Tavern with brilliant sunshine and flags fluttering. The images throughout authentically capture the heart and history of the location, a perfect representation of iconic locations

The book is written in an engaging and well-researched way, describing the most poignant and well-known historical events, as well as many very important cultural events, therefore appealing to all parts of soceity (and as such, anyone wishing to visit London for the first or thirtieth time will enjoy this book)

Not remotely touristy, all immersive and a really good book to have on hand for your jaunt to the 'Ton!
