Historic pub co-owned by Sir Ian McKellen. Charles Dickens wrote there whenever he visited his godfather who lived in the area. The original prop of Gandalf’s staff from LOTR behind the bar. Beautiful views of the Thames out of the window. Rammed full of people on a Monday evening when the pub quiz happens - if you‘re lucky, you might spot Sir Ian himself enjoying a pint like my fiancé and I did once.

great little brown pub (can smoke inside.. an experience) the bartender is dangerously good at chess and if you play you cards right the locals will give you a backie on their bike for a very very silly night out

Not very interesting lore I know, but I wanted to share anyway because I’m excited and I love my fiancé more than life itself. Some of the best lore is some of the most normal lore.

Call him by his name (this guy is called Chaucer), give him a little pet, and admire his little crooked chin before you go on your merry way
