Samuel Smith's pubs in London



I'm from Yorkshire, but moved to London in 1991. My local Brewery at home was the Samuel Smith, Old Brewery in Tadcaster and I wanted to find all the Sam Smiths pubs in town. I stumbled across quite a few of them and was surprised at how many there were. I tried to find them all on the web, but it's quite hard - you can't just search for Sam Smith on Yell.co.uk. So here is a list of the pubs that I found from many different sites. This may not be all of them, and all the information may not be totally correct (I haven't visited them all), so don't shoot me.

If you need to find out where they are, use the Streetmap website and type in the postcode.

My favourite is the Cittie of Yorke in Holborn, you can hide away in the back of the basement in the middle of London, your mobile won't work and nobody can find you while you enjoy a pint of Old Brewery Bitter. Unfortunately, it's closed on Sundays like some of the others in Holborn.

If you know of any more or think that there are any errors, please email me.
