As the August LRUG registration goes up I realise that my sporadic attendance of LRUG in recent months has been, at least in part, because I find the Slaughtered Lamb a bit too noisy and crowded to be able to comfortably chat to fellow LRUGers post meet.<br>
<br>How about a change of pub venue for after the meeting?<br><br>Here are some pubs a similar distance away from the meet<br><br>- The Old Ivy House (<a href="http://www.fancyapint.com/Pub/london/the-old-ivy-house/141">http://www.fancyapint.com/Pub/london/the-old-ivy-house/141</a>)<br>
- The White Lion (<a href="http://www.fancyapint.com/Pub/london/white-lion/265">http://www.fancyapint.com/Pub/london/white-lion/265</a>)<br>- The Chequers (<a href="http://www.randompubfinder.com/review.php?Name=The_Chequers,_44_Old_Street&Pub=789">http://www.randompubfinder.com/review.php?Name=The_Chequers,_44_Old_Street&Pub=789</a>)<br>
- The Sutton Arms (<a href="http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/s/50/5043/Sutton_Arms/Clerkenwell">http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/s/50/5043/Sutton_Arms/Clerkenwell</a>) - this is opposite the Slaughtered Lamb but is perhaps a bit small for us all.<br>
<br>I'll have to admit to not getting very hands on with this research so I haven't actually visited any of these, except for the Sutton Arms. However I feel confident that some more dedicated beer afficionados on the LRUG list might have already scoped these out and be able to give a bit more insight into their suitability.<br>
<br>What say you local pub experts?<br><br>J.<br><br><br>
