This was my old local – it's probably my favourite pub in London. It is the only pub in London run by a cat. Do not try and stroke the Landlord, he will have you barred!

This pub is owned by Vice Magazine, so there's lots of pressure to be incredibly trendy. Upstairs there are often fun bands playing and you can have a bit of a boogie.
