10 Of The Most Legendary London Pubs You Should Get Pint Happy In - London - The Infatuation

"Famed for: smugglers, pirates, and importantly, Del Boy. Calling all fans of Poldark and anyone who enjoys reading Wikipedia entries about notable pirates, this pub on the Thames is really going to get the old nautical juices flowing. The Prospect of Whitby in Wapping has been a pub in one form of another since 1520 and over the past 500 years it was rebuilt following a fire, got an oh-so casual visit from everyone’s favourite cig-packing party gal, Princess Margaret, and most profoundly of all, had a cameo in an episode of Only Fools And Horses. Outside of Del Boy, this riverside pub has also served other deeply respected British legends like Charles Dickens and J.M.W. Turner, who even sketched the views of local ships from the pub’s windows. Flash forward to the 21st century and it’s now a great spot for a pint with your history-loving parents or for a lowkey date out on their beer garden with river views." - heidi lauth beasley
