  • In this second episode of Pint Shopping we bounce around North London to profile 9 of our favourite pubs. The pints and pace were both very strong and so the wheels came off by late afternoon so I do apologise for the lively state I was in by the end. But hey, occupational hazard I guess.

    That footage from the Landseer Arms couldn't have been shot at a better time, the light in the background is perfect London autumn weather. I live in New Barnet and have the Landseer in my sights in the next few weeks [weather permitting] due to this video. I will knock out a few others on my jaunt. Btw, I was a resident of Notting Hill for a decade, how come you've never done a west London pint shopping? I mean, I was 50 yards from two utter classics, The Cow & The Westbourne, which on their own you could build an entire video on. Happy to recommend some others in that area if you don't know it as well.

    They're all a bit.... toffish aren't they? Landseer was alright, but it had no atmosphere, no music, just felt big and full of people working (at 5.30pm) a couple of families and bored bartenders. Landseer is probably quite nice in the summer with the big windows, but I'd be sat outside as I wouldn't miss the lack of atmos.
    The Lamb on Holloway, Alma, The Duke of Wellington and Hunter S nearby are way better than most of these overtly posh and expensive restaurant pubs. Hunter S toilets are particularly recommended that you visit....

    THE VILLAGE INN
    "The village inn, the dear old inn,
    So ancient, clean and free from sin,
    True centre of our rural life
    Where Hodge sits down beside his wife
    And talks of Marx and nuclear fission
    With all a rustic's intuition.
    Ah, more than church or school or hall,
    The village inn's the heart of all."
    So spake the brewer's P. R. O.,
    A man who really ought to know,
    For he is paid for saying so.
    And then he kindly gave to me
    A lovely coloured booklet free.
    'Twas full of prose that sang the praise
    Of coaching inns in Georgian days,
    Showing how public-houses are
    More modern than the motor-car,
    More English than the weald or wold
    And almost equally as old,
    And run for love and not for gold
    Until I felt a filthy swine
    For loathing beer and liking wine,
    And rotten to the very core
    For thinking village inns a bore,
    And village bores more sure to roam
    To village inns than stay at home.
    And then I thought I must be wrong,
    So up I rose and went along
    To that old village alehouse where
    In neon lights is written "Bear".
    Ah, where's the inn that once I knew
    With brick and chalky wall
    Up which the knobbly pear-tree grew
    For fear the place would fall?
    Oh, that old pot-house isn't there,
    It wasn't worth our while;
    You'll find we have rebuilt "The Bear"
    In Early Georgian style.
    But winter jasmine used to cling
    With golden stars a-shine
    Where rain and wind would wash and swing
    The crudely painted sign.
    And where's the roof of golden thatch?
    The chimney-stack of stone?
    The crown-glass panes that used to match
    Each sunset with their own?
    Oh now the walls are red and smart,
    The roof has emerald tiles.
    The neon sign's a work of art
    And visible for miles.
    The bar inside was papered green,
    The settles grained like oak,
    The only light was paraffin,
    The woodfire used to smoke.
    And photographs from far and wide
    Were hung around the room:
    The hunt, the church, the football side,
    And Kitchener of Khartoum.
    Our air-conditioned bars are lined
    With washable material,
    The stools are steel, the taste refined,
    Hygienic and ethereal.
    Hurrah, hurrah, for hearts of oak!
    Away with inhibitions!
    For here's a place to sit and soak
    In sanit'ry conditions.

    Gastropubs that look like they've been built off a Sims 2 template are the death of the industry. Just soul-sucking capitalism in action.
