London: Historic Pubs, British Ales & Classic Dishes｜United Kingdom

Bask in the centuries-old tradition of London ale in a 500-year-old pub on your first stop. Learn the story of Queen Elizabeth's connection to the tree outside and feast on a classic pork pie dish. This is just the beginning of your journey through London's pubs and food scene.

Visit an iconic London pub on your next stop on Fleet Street, where Sweeney Todd made his mark. Enjoy a refreshing pint of cider and the perfect accompaniment—a sausage roll—in the pub designed by the same architect who created St. Paul's Cathedral.

Enjoy a rare experience and step back into the past with a pint in a listed building at your next stop. Rebuilt after the Great Fire of London in 1666, this pub became a favourite for some of the world's renowned authors like Charles Dickens, who would pop in for devilled whitebait and a drink. Follow in their footsteps and indulge in the exact same pairing over 150 years later.

Hear all about a unique London delicacy—cock ale—at the next pub you visit. This centuries-old drink was made using cockerel and was believed to improve your health.
