Not that most tourists would know, but there seems to be a contradiction here. The Churchill, a celebration of the wartime leader (they even estimate the number of champagne bottles the man consumed), is in fact an Irish pub - didn't Ireland remain neutral during World War II?

Regardless, this is a fine establishment, part homely tavern (it's a Fuller's, and the beer is excellent) and part Thai restaurant. Character is provided by the lived-in feel and mass of junk - portraits of prime ministers and American presidents, the documented triumphs of the Clare GAA hurling team, shiny copper things. The verdant frontage, embellished by an image of Churchill giving the V, is a regular winner in its category of
the London in Bloom competition. Tourists love it, yes, but the regulars here include locals, and not just the posh ones.

We got sucked in my the most unique exterior we'd ever seen in a pub (or most anything else for that matter). The interior and service were every bit as nice. Try the Red Fox!

Extremely impressed with this pub when we visited this evening. Chose it because it is dog friendly and for the food. Service was excellent, food top notch, and it literally oozes character from every seam. Great find.
