Not all pubs are created equal, my friend. Forget the tourist traps—your indoor mission is to find a proper Victorian boozer with a crackling fireplace. Places like The Lamb & Flag in Covent Garden or The Prospect of Whitby in Wapping are basically time machines with beer taps.
Order a pint of something dark and malty, grab a wooden table, and just watch the world squish by through steamy windows. Pro tip: Pair this with a giant plate of bangers and mash—that’s a rainy day victory right there.
