This South London watering hole offers punters the chance to keep warm outside while their fire pits blaze, more than a dozen craft beers on tap and the option of taking their own vinyl on Sunday nights to be played. Sounds good? We think so.

The patron saint of cosy London pubs, the Dickensian Holly Bush has it all: a gorgeous, tucked-away location, the nicest fires this side of Narnia, and incredible pub food. Getting in can be a bun fight, but it’s the perfect place to cozy up for an Autumn afternoon. Fun fact: it’s opposite where Jamie Oliver used to live when he started out as The Naked Chef. It’s rumoured punters used to bang on his door to request bacon sandwiches after close. Yep, he moved shortly after…

The go-to for trendy locals, you’ll find this pub filled to the rafters most weekends but it only adds to its “proper” British pub atmosphere. The food here is excellent (the menu is seasonal) and the fact they have a roaring fire makes it all the more inviting to set up camp for a cozy afternoon.

Situated on Mehetabel Road, The Chesham Arms is fast becoming a known secret. The traditional East End pub was bought by developers in recent years but was saved by the local residents and is now is hub of the community. In the summer the fashion crowd spill out into the garden but it’s winter when the Chesham stocks up their logs and builds two roaring fires for locals to warm their cockles with a mulled cider.

A proper country pub in Henley-on-Thames, The Crooked Billet is a far cry from gastro chains, it’s rustic, made up of lots of little rooms and has charm by the bucket load. One thing we’re sure of, it serves (probably) the best Yorkshire puddings in the area.
