Covering much of what is now one of the world’s major financial districts, the historic City of London, this pub crawl includes several of very finest pubs as well as some of the most interesting and impressive architecture in this locale. It starts at an establishment whose main claim to fame is that it was once a serious public health hazard, moves on to an elegant, but noisy, converted ballroom, then an old seventeenth-century inn used for peddling quack remedies, followed by the first coffee house in London. It continues with a beautiful bank conversion, then to a pub located in the centre of the impressively ornate Leadenhall Market, and finally the only remaining timber-framed building in the City of London.
