Housed in a building from 1720, this tiny, atmospheric pub covered in wood panelling, delft tiles and scuffed paintwork is the only London dispensary of the fantastic beers from St Peter's Brewery in Suffolk. Be warned: seating's limited and it's hugely popular. Arrive early to nab the raised 'pulpit' seats, but you'll likely be relegated to the overflow area in the street.
