The George Inn
Tucked into a cobbled yard in Borough, The George Inn is London's last surviving galleried coaching inn — a place where Charles Dickens drank and Shakespeare's Globe audience may well have paused. Its timbered galleries and intimate bar rooms feel entirely removed from the city outside, yet Borough Market is moments away.
- London's last galleried coaching inn
- Dickensian atmosphere and history
- Medieval Southwark setting
Best for history lovers and a genuinely atmospheric pint.
