Wholeheartedly agree, it's not just about the food, that's what makes it great. But, at the same time, they don't always agree with each other, it's quite refreshing.

One thing I really like about these vids are that the crew in background will laugh and have a small input now and then, adds to the environment, especially in this episode in pubs you need that social aspect and that added to it.

Fun fact about pub names in Britain - they're named things like 'The Kings Head' & 'The Black Swan' because outside there would be a painted image above the entrance on the outside. This was done to help identify public houses (pubs) before most people were literate and could read / write. Most frequenters were agriculture / factory workers and would use the image above the entrance to identify the pub.

@JimWhitaker

Alternatively, alehouses would traditionally be identified by a bough from an evergreen tree fixed above the entrance. I last saw this in Austria a couple of decades ago.

in the midlands we nickname them also, so my locals were the coach n horses (coke n snorters), the rose n crown (closing down), the travellers rest (old mans vest), the olympic (the armpit), and lastly the victoria which we call "the middle", coz its in the middle of the rest of em.

Spent 2 years of my life studying in the UK, I visited Spoons at least once a week with my mates on Thursday for the quiz night. Totally enjoy it!

Spoons doesn't play music because Sir Tim Martin modelled his chain on George Orwell's essay "The Moon Under Water" where Orwell lists all the attributes for his perfect pub, one being "In the Moon Under Water it is always quiet enough to talk. The house possesses neither a radio nor a piano".

You have no idea how much i look forward to these episodes! Thanks Joe and Harry! ❤

I always look forward to Joe and Harry chatting on any subject! I would happily watch a pub crawl series with them!

22:45 fun fact about half pints, my dad worked in a lot of pubs and you can tell a landlord is an alcoholic as usually they will be drinking half pints to make it seem they aren't drinking as much

@lynnejamieson2063

Until relatively recently in Scotland, there was a whole section of society (mainly working class men, though by the time I was working behind a bar in the mid 90’s they were mostly retired) who would buy a single half pint of beer to last their entire visit and would order however many whiskys to sip and once the got down to the last of their whisky, they’d pour the last few drips into their beer. This was my Granda’s way of drinking in a pub and I can only say that in the thirty odd years we shared this planet, I can only really remember him being properly drunk once…though my brothers will have seen it far more often due to Burns Suppers mainly.

As an Englishmen who loves America and American culture, this series is unbelievably awesome. More please! And better pubs next time! Gordon’s wine bar!? - that needs to be one it would blow an American mind! 😊

35:30 - As someone who worked in a pub in London, most of the strange requests we'd do, after clarifying about three times that is what they wanted. We'd then try whatever weird thing it was after our shifts, just to see if it actually worked or if it was just mental. The main one that stands out to me is having lager topped with pepsi, which honestly was nowhere near as bad as I expected - pretty much the same as a lemonade top haha, even if I looked at the guy who ordered it like he'd escaped from the local asylum!

27:36 Harry calling Highbury & Islington a lovely area just reminds of the time that I saw two middle aged men, presumably pissed out of their minds, fighting on the floor over a bottle of Sarsons vinegar that they'd stolen from the local spoons. To cap it all off a busker outside the station decided to freestyle narrate the two men wrestling on the ground. It was bewildering and I would've stayed to watch for longer but I had a 6 a side football match to get to

These are great, I love the dynamic between you guys.

YAAAAS!!! I was coincidentally on a binge watch of the previous food tours, and then this pops up on my feed…! Imma definitely watch this after work! 🤩🤩

You guys need to extend this tour to see more of what the UK has to offer.

These food tours videos in London have been fantastic. Harry's research of the history of the UK and venues and Joe being mind blown at how old things are never gets boring

Really love this series

We need a part 2!!!

London has some amazing old pubs. In fact the whole UK does, but sadly many of them have closed.

His face was hilarious watching him open the bag of crackling. it's like he witnessed him kick a child.

New Food tours, let's go!

Do Part 2 - Best Soho Pubs. The French House, The Shaston, The Old Coffee House, The Coach & Horses, The Three Greyhounds, The Lyric, The Devonshire.

3:00 This is so accurate. I’ll be moving in the next 6 months and moving too far away from my local is a genuine concern, it’s quite sad really 😂

The Surprise in Chelsea after much research, is my favourite pub in London. Food’s great. Atmosphere is low key. Beer is well kept. Service is friendly. No big chain vibe. About the right size. Good Sunday lunch. I know you are thinking - Chelsea? Really? It’s not Chelsea at all.

Wicked funny episode guys!

Another fun, interesting video, always friendship and fun.

"Ye olde" or specifically "Ye", is a misrepresented spelling. There was a letter called 'thorn' which looked similar to a Y but the pronunciation was 'th'...so anytime you see 'Ye' it actually means 'the'.

Joe and harrys chemistry is gold, so easy to watch

When I was 16 yr old (1982), my Father brought home a Scotch Egg and then later on Steak n Kidney Pie. It was his employee meal made by an English Chef at Hyatt Hotels. I loved it, especially the Scotch Egg.

These two make a lovely team.

The Hope & Anchor Islington is in music history books, my fave pub in London, really should have gone there also the Florist in Bethnal Green is fabulous 🌟

Jamaica Inn AKA the jam pot...Cheshire Cheese...top places

Do a part 2 please and Harry and Joe have great chemistry and banter

Why am I not surprised that Harry lives in Islington? This is a great series. Harry and Joe work so well together.

The Horseshoe in Clerkenwell, proper local vibe, landlord owned. Great for darts, do Great pies and is used in lots of films/tv such as Gangs of London.
