We've discovered over 850 special pubs and inns for you to try, all inspected, all special. There are stacks for those who like their pubs with real ale on draft and pickled eggs on the bar and for those who like leather sofas and chalkboard menus. We have boisterous boozers and tasteful taverns; you need never be stuck in a grim, swirly-carpeted, jukebox-rattled corner ever again!
For this edition we've also included full-page entries for pubs with bedrooms. We also flag up pubs with good local and organic and (mostly!) unpretentious food. There are awards for the best pub with rooms, the best pub for locally-sourced/organic food and drink, the best community/village pub and the best unspoilt, timeless gems.
Our well-researched, fresh and lively write-ups paint an accurate picture of what to expect, from the welcome to the setting, to the food, beer and wines and there are clear maps, directions and symbols.
All 640 entries from the Pubs guide - and 250 'worth a visit' recommendations - are now available for your Garmin or Microsoft Mobile satnav device! For more information or to order, click here »
