As a veteran of the old circle tube line pub crawl (many years ago and lost in a drunken haze), I’m proud it only took one week for someone to come with a modern equivalent & announce it on the jubilee weekend. Very British urban adventure. Well done rob.
Your comment put a real smile on my face Michael; cheers mate! 😉
Yeah, nice touch. They have done a wonderful job on the line. Would make a great pub crawl.
@@patrickbrett1552 Cheers Patrick 😉
Loved the way you said "The first time my Dad bought me the first LEGAL pint".
Your round Rob😊
Don't cry, I'll buy the fish & chips.
Ha ha! 😉🤣
Your videos are always so well thought out and compiled. Thank you for your time and effort. Terrific work, 😊
That is so kind of you to say, many thanks indeed ☺️
Working my way through the pub-themed episodes on this channel and greatly enjoying it. I used to frequent The Flying Horse (or The Tottenham, as it was back then) in the late 1980s and became good friends with a young American couple who were working there. Visited them in the USA a few years later after they'd gone back home from their travels. Still in touch with one of them on Facebook, over 35 years later. I was in London in July and staying just off Tottenham Court Road, so popped in for a pint. First time there in decades. Lovely memories.
Thanks Gerry, really lovely comment. Thanks for watching and stay well 😉
I've seen quite a few videos on the Elizabeth line since it opened - but this is the only one (so far) that looks at the nearby pubs too - well done 💜
Thanks so much Rita ☺️
2 birds with one stone springs to mind
This is really great.. as a foreigner it's great to get some above ground info relating to each station.
Thank you :-)
Watching this video while suffering a little hangover from the cheap beer at Streeties, what a nice surprise to see it featured. A great little pub!
Ha ha! Cheers Ben ;-) It is a great place, wish there were more like it. Hope you're feeling better soon.
Great video, really done your homework on this one.
Thank you 😊
Absolutely fascinating. Haven't been back to London in 30 years, but this is tempting. Brilliantly presented, better than TV. Thanks.
Truly appreciate that Patrick, thank you so much 😊
That's plain excellent.
I now want to explore the whole route.
Many cheers for that. Rob.
Cheers Darrien! I have been considering the other branches ;-)
Another corker, Rob! My trips to London are so infrequent that it's likely I'll never visit any of these pubs, but I could listen to you talk about them for hours :)
With love from Yorkshire x
Cheers Mickey for the lovely comment! Stay well mate and hope you manage to get down to visit some of the pubs at some point! ;-)
Must attempt this 1 mate. Robs Royal Crawl.
@@patrickbrett1552 😄
i absolutely love your videos! soothing, yet jovial narration. very relaxing, therapeutic, even 😆
lots of facts and history. great footage. regular new content.
as a Londoner myself, i find i don’t actually do much exploring, i think i’m pretty typical, really.
thank heavens for you! exploring everything for us 🤣
i think you’re my favourite channel!
i just wish you would add that missing apostrophe to Rob’s London 🤣🤣
cheers, matey!
Thank you so much Sarah Louise, that means a great deal to me 😊 It is honestly the fantastic support like yours which keeps me going!
To be honest I wish I could put an apostrophe in the channel title too!
It’s a bit late now though… It comes from my original website; when I created the name it wasn’t possible to put an apostrophe in the web address, so I had to create a blend of the two words… and that became the brand! 🤣
Thanks so much again for your wonderful comment, it’s set me up for the day! Cheers and have a great weekend 😉
This was such fun I watched the whole thing at normal speed - a rare event for me...
Thanks so much Jerry! Glad you enjoyed it 🍻
The Montagu Pyke that runs all the way from Charring Cross Rd through to Greek St is an extremely long pub - that must be the longest pub!
I was thinking the same Anthony! Is that pub still open though? I’ve not been there for some time
@@Robslondon I went about 7 months ago. God knows who chose it with all the other beautiful pubs in the area.
😂
Thank you for another informative video
Thank you Barbara ☺️
Rob as usual a fascinating video. Not sure I am man enough anymore for the pub crawl but the history the line passes through is almost endless and fascinating. Keep safe.C.
Ha ha! Cheers Clive- I’ll be honest, the pubs were filmed over several days, I couldn’t do ten in one go either 😂 Cheers and stay well
I couldn't manage a pub crawl either, unless I stuck mostly to soft drinks
Is there a Tshirt for completing it? I’ll be there for 3 weeks and ‘might’ be able to do 10 pubs in that time 😉
@@taraelizabethdensley9475I had plenty of non-alcoholic drinks when filming this Tara, believe me! 😂
😂@@chezg806
Outstanding Rob
I used to ride the underground rails when I lived on the streets of London.
It was warm and relatively safer.
The New Elizabeth Track is a marvel of British Engineering.its a Tourist attraction in itself, Rob you video showcasing some of London’s fantasticPubs , highlight this.
😊🏴☠️
Brilliant comment Alan, thank you so much 😄 Cheers and stay well.
love the flying horse! Had many a drink and happy times with my mates in there.
Cheers Wayne ;-)
Well worth the wait. Once again, an entertaining, exhaustively researched and very well presented video. Thanks Rob, you always manage to raise the bar (pun intended ) 😜. Cheers. Lance.
Ha ha! Cheers Lance; much appreciated mate 😉
Lovely video content - so much useful facts and information! Must try out those pubs too!
Thank you so much 😊 Glad you liked it! 🍺
I worked on the building sites in London in 1989 to 1990. Loved the tube and the overhead rail - I lived in Palmers Green so my tube stop was Wood Green or if I took the overhead from Moorgate (I think) then it stopped at Palmers Green unless I fell asleep, then woke up in Hertford North or Welwyn Garden City (I think they were the end of the lines from memory). I woke up late one night at a station I think it was called Watton at Stone and the station master called out to me and told me their were no more trains for the night, I was feeling glum until he told me there was a train coming back empty to London and he’d ask the Driver to stop and drop me off at Palmers Green, which is what happened - what a nice thing to do. I love your videos of London railways, I’m back home in Ireland now but the happy memories of London will always stay with me.
Thanks for the kind words Sean- and for sharing your memories, really enjoyable and funny to read! Cheers mate and stay well 🍺
Another fantastic video Rob, really enjoyed it!
Cheers John! Thanks for watching, much appreciated 😊
Another excellent video Rob, I must be sure to visit some of those old pubs! 👍
Cheers Tony! Have fun ;-)
Such a well constructed ride along... love the twine of rail and pub history.... amazing work to build that line, love the dedication to all those that helped design and build it.
Hope you have a great Bank Holiday weekend. Much love to you and family.
Thank you so much as ever John, your support means so much to me. Hope you're keeping well and that you have a great bank holiday too.
Love the interesting snippets of information in a fascinating video 👍
😊
Excellent video Rob, as always.
Much appreciated Tim, thank you 😊
Best Elizabeth line video of them all, and there's a lot out there👍
Thank you so much Gareth :-) Glad you enjoyed it- cheers!
What a smashing and uplifting comment.Top man Gareth.
Excellent video Rob! 👍🏻😃 I really enjoyed all the information on the Elizabeth Line, London & the pubs… great research.
Thank you so much 😊
Another great video Rob. Funny you should mention William Morris wallpaper because I think I spotted some at 12:33
Thanks so much Ed- and fantastic observation, I didn't realise! Cheers and stay well :-)
I really enjoyed this video. I'm going to try and do this crawl with my daughter. Half pints only of course!
Ha ha! Cheers Iain and have fun 😉🍻
Hello Rob
Was a great way to present the new Elizabeth Line. We are looking forward to taking this line our next time in London. We did get to visit the bell factory and its museum before it closed which is a shame it was a jem. We did buy a small bell that they made. There is another small museum by the hospital which has some of the Jack the Ripper letters. Which name escape me but it is near the pub you featured. We have not been in any of pubs though mention, I know that my grandparents visit Dirty Dicks pub in 1970 on there visited London mentioned near Liverpool station. I know this because they took a picture of the pub. Thanks for the great video. Take Care Chris and Sandra of Canada.
Great comment as ever, thank you ☺️ The Museum sounds like the one in the Royal London Hospital? It’s a great little one. Cheers and stay well
A monumental achievement!
Cheers Jim! 😉🍻
Another winner, Rob! (I have visited four out of the ten pubs mentioned!)
Thanks so Mik!
I do enjoy your videos about London pubs:) keep 'em coming!
Cheers Paul!
Another fun pub tour. Train station info was very interesting. While watching I was reminded of a few places in New Hampshire US, that were called taverns or inns, mimicking pubs. One I went to after work on Friday with the POETS club. Being a girl, I was an honorary member. POETS stands for, Piss On Everything Tomorrow's Saturday. It was 5 Software Engineers and me. Good times.
😂 Great comment! Thank
You! 🍺
Well researched and presented, thanks for sharing.
Thanks Stephen :-) Stay well
Good video Rob. Shout out for Ye Olde Mitre only a few mins from Farringdon. A cracker of a pub dating from 1547, hidden down a little Alley. Worked nearby, a great place to hide ourselves of an afternoon.
Cheers! Yes, Ye Old Mitre is easily the most requested pub here, so I'll certainly be covering it soon. I was going to include it in my first ever pub video- but the footage was ruined! Thanks and stay well ;-)
Such wonderful storytelling and presentation! Thank you so much for this lovely cheerful video and the great pub recommendations!
It's a pleasure! Thank you so. much for the kind words :-)
Another fascinating video ,am very impressed with your research .maybe the Shakespeare Head Kingsway could be one of the longest pubs .Be lucky Barry Southern
Cheers Barry- and yes, that’s a good call 🍺
@@Robslondon maybe we could have a pint one day .all the best
Thank you for the wonderful video, Rob. Really interesting and fun to watch.
I did a trial run (halves of shandy) of the full crawl, but in reverse-order to finish at Paddington. As The Abbey Arms doesn't open until the evening on weekdays I had to forgo that one and have a soft drink from WH Smiths in Abbey Wood station instead. I got caught out with the Running Horse being closed on Mondays and had to substitute the nearby Spread Eagle. It was a superb adventure with some really great pubs. My favourite three pubs were Streeties, The Gun and The Good Samaritan. When I do this "for real" with a group, I think it will be in two halves. Thanks for the great idea!
Brilliant Dominic, so glad you gave it a go! Cheers and stay well ;-)
Fabulous content once again Rob. My favourite youtube channel by far.
That means a lot to me, thank you so much 😊
You don't have to be born a Londoner to be mad about the tube, but probably it helps. Next time in the smoke I'll reenact this vid! Fanx for the upload.
Lovely comment; cheers 😉
Wonderful video. Weve just come back from a week at Abbey Wood Campsite and used the Elizabeth Line nearly daily.Our interests when in London is history and Pubs which combine wonderfully LOL. Used the line to get to Wapping and Rotherhithe to visit the historic pubs of the Captain Kidd ( not old but great location and 2 minutes from Wapping and the Mayflower and the Angel. So good news youve now given us a great pub crawl for our next stay. As I said Wonderful Video.
Thank so much for your excellent comment, Ed :-) Stay well.
Fantastic.. thank you for this video.. The Flying Gorse was my local last time I was in London as I was staying just around the corner but it was still The Tottenham at the time it’s just a fantastic little pub.. can’t wait to get back and actually do this pub crawl 😜😜
Cheers Rick! ;-) Hope you get back soon. Stay well.
Nice video. I've seen bands at the Betsey Trotwood. The live room is in the cellar, so even closer to the trains passing underneath.
Ha ha 😉 Cheers Christopher and thanks for the kind words. Stay well.
Great video. The story of pub-goers skipping over the London / Kent border to drink longer into the evening reminds me of how Edinburgh residents used to skip down to Leith which was a different city with different laws. I'm sure there must be loads of examples of this kind of behaviour!
Cheers Dan! I didn't realise there was a similar setup there... I imagine it was often messy! Hope you're all keeping well :-)
I used to drink at the Flying Horse when I worked in Russell Square( back of Tottenham court Road and also at Centre Pint.) Thank you, Rob, I enjoyed the this show and also learning the history around each station. What a interesting place London is.
Thanks so much Raphael :-) Stay well.
A wonderful tour! Thank you!
Many thanks Alan, glad you enjoyed it! Stay well :-)
a very impressive video..when I used to shop for CDs, plus Vinyl at Virgin records....years ago on Oxford St the Tottenham Pub was a very useful stop, I do like a beer, anyway it was always an expensive drink..however a short walk towards HMV ..I had a choice, a better record emporium plus several pubs nearby, one being the John Snow..not the England Fast Bowler, but the man who identified the poisoned wells and indeed smashed the pumps..although they did not actually meet, it is said that John Snow and Joseph Bazalgette saved the day......a very Stinky Tale.
Thanks so much for your great comment and kind words! I remember the Virgin Megastore very well :-) Stay well.
Fantastic work. Thank you sir.
Thank you!
The Abbey Arms was a simple chose being the only pub in Abbey Wood 😁. The station was elevated up onto the flyover. The Crossrail platforms were the original station platforms and before the flyover was constructed in the 80s there was a level crossing where the Crossrail gate line is now positioned.
Yep! I’m lucky it had a good story to go with it 😂 I saw photos of the level crossing when researching it, really wanted to include it but it would have been too much of a diversion sadly. Cheers and stay well 😉
I used to go to a nightclub in Farringdon (Turnmills), many years ago. It was demolished to make way for the new station. I want to thank you though for showing me the area in daylight for the first time in my life!
Looking toward to the Reading to Shenfield pub crawl video in the autumn where Rob gets less and less coherent the further east he goes!
😂 Ha ha! Cheers Jason! Yes, I remember when Turnmills was there. Stay well mate.
Fantatic video luv the garden so gr8
Thanks 🙂
Thanks Rob, I spent my first 12 years in London and still miss it all those years later. We used the underground mostly in those days as the busses were a bit of a diagrace. I was on a bus one day when the transmission fell out of the bottom right outside the Olympia but I was only one stop away from home so I walked!
Gosh! That reminds me of an incident when I was young; we were on a bus and the driver must have gone the wrong way, as he had to turn the bus around in the road.
Needless to say, it got stuck! I remember all the men on the bus got out and tried to bounce/push/dislodge it from the kerb!
Well done Rob your video's are just getting better and better. Lots of interesting information and so obviously well researched.
Cheers 😉
Excellent video as always. 👍
Thank you asheland :-)
@@Robslondon you’re welcome! 😊
Thank you Robert for sharing another great video. I like it very much. 👍👍👍😍😍😍
Thank you so much Sharon :-) Stay well.
Superb research. Keep up the good work Rob.
Much appreciated; thank you.
Thanks for another wonderful episode ✨
Thanks so much 😊
Another fantastic video Rob. It's a great feat of engineering, with everything else that is present. Good to see the pubs back too 👍
Lovely comment, cheers Paul 😉
We finally got back to London after Covid and the Elizabeth Line was top of our must does. It was a happy week finding as much art as possible on the stations and riding from 1 side of London to the other. It's marvellous to see your video as we now how a much better idea of it all. Love your work.
Lovely comment; thank you so much!
great video Rob made me rather thirsty
really liked the Woolwich station bit
must try the gun have a toast to Nelson and a toast to Robslondon vids
all the best Rob
Great comment Andy; cheers 😉
Like the look of the Flying Horse n the Betsy Rob. Amazing engineering installing the Elizabeth line into Whitechapel...ps I've actually been in the Gun for some reason, very good sir👍😊🍺
Next time you’re in London let me know Dave, would be great to have a pint 😉 Cheers as always for the support and stay well mate 🍻
A wonderfully educational and entertaining show. Most enjoyable. Thank you. Paul
Thank you so much Paul. Stay well.
very good ,id like to try some of them when next in london.
Have fun Ian!!
Amazing video 🎉 I still go in the flying horse and I did a couple of walks past the blind beggar pub but as a Londoner myself lol I thought it best I didn’t say all I heard about the place 😂 would love to hear a video from you though as you tell the stories so well 👍
Thank you so much, such a lovely comment- your kind words mean a lot to me :-) Cheers and stay well.
Hello Rob, we did this walk on Friday and loved the explanations of the stations and pubs. Our only dislikes were the rather long walks to The Gun and Streeties, the latter was quite a long walk but I appreciate that perhaps there were no nearer pubs of character. Great idea thank you.
Thanks so much Michael, glad you enjoyed it! Yes The Gun and Streeties are a bit out of the way unfortunately, it's a bit of a pub desert out there. Glad you made it though :-) Cheers and stay well.
Brilliantly researched and narrated Rob. The clock at 5.18 is the same as the one in Schiphol Airport, Amsterdam. Lovely and amusing to watch for a few minutes.
Thank you so much :-) Yes, I saw the clock at Schiphol a few years back, I imagine that one is the original? Cheers and stay well.
What a tremendous video and extremely well presented, well done 👏👏 stay safe David 👍👍
Thank you so much David, really appreciate your kind words :-) Stay well.
Outstanding video Rob and a wonderful mix of above and below ground details and history. I've not yet been on the new line but certainly will on our next London pub crawl and try some of your picks :)
Thank you so much 😊 Hope you enjoy it when you do 🍺
Your video is fascinating and so informative. The whole line is an incredible masterpiece of modern engineering. The logistics to successfully complete the project is mind boggling. The wonderful pubs you highlighted is the cream on the cake.
I raise a pint to your hard work and thanks for posting.
Really appreciate that Russ, many thanks. Stay well my friend- and cheers!
London changed so much from the last time i visited ! thank you for your videos, it make me see the new part of the city, and the historical i didn't know. !
Thank you so much Mathilda 😊 It changes so quickly, I can hardly keep up with it! Stay well
More brilliant work, Rob. We are all blessed with having you share your "Knowledge". Thanks again from DownUnder. 🙃
Cheers Bryan! ;-)
So exciting to see after all these years of building. Planning to ride on it in the fall on our trip to London.
Hope you have a great time 😊
Hi Rob,
Very good and informative video on the Elizabeth Line. It’s particularly interesting the artistic features which have been incorporated into the stations.
Thanks so much for the lovely comment John. Stay well.
Well done - awesome video !
Thank you 🙂
As a northerner you may find it odd that i do understand london travel is so important....when normaly its of no interest ...but one day im goner have too do a london pubs walk .. sadly weve lost hundreds of tradional pubs up here cumbria co durham northumberland my area... cracking vid👌
Thank you so much for the kind words 😊
My office was above the Natwest next door to the Woodins Shade, so near in fact we could pick up the pub wifi, nice little boozer. Glad you didn't go with the godawful Hamilton Hall
Ha ha 😉 Cheers 🍺
THE ELIZABETH LINE PUB CRAWL, YOU'VE GOT TO START WITH A BLOODY MARY
That would be better at the end as a hangover cure! ;-)
Hi Rob
What a treat thoroughly enjoyed this video, which as usual was brilliantly researched
I can see now why it took so long to post...after visiting all those pubs you definitely needed a lie down (lol)
All the best
Mike
Ha ha! Cheers Mike, and yes it was pretty full on… although I did have some non-alcoholic beverages here and there 😉
Getting p****d is research?!!!!!
@@jeffholt9437 Yep! 😉
Great video mate, cheers from Sydney
Cheers Ben! Great to have an Aussie viewer ;-) Stay well.
Great video, I love that you put loads of information and history in this video. Hi from Texas.
Thank you so much 😊 🇬🇧🇺🇸
Saved this to watch. As allways exellent Rob. Well presented and researched. I love all the historical info .
Thanks so much for the kind words Suzanne, really appreciate it :-) Cheers and stay well.
Thanks for braving the weather to film this! The Elizabeth line certainly looks impressive, but I don't think it will be of much use for any journeys I'm likely to make anytime soon.
I've drunk in The Gun a couple of times and (I think) also Woodin's Shades (though that would have been at least 18 tears ago...). When I worked in Canary Wharf (2006-2020), my favourite 'real' pub was The North Pole in Manilla Street, until it sadly closed in 2014. I'll have to give your other featured pubs a go sometime.
Great comment, thanks Andrew. Yes, I remember the North Pole; a sad loss. Stay well sir.
intreating video Rob.
Thank you Tim
I was in The Gun when the IRA bomb went off in South Quay. Although some distance away, windows shattered in the pub. A very scary experience
Blimey Brian, what a scary memory to have. I remember that day well, it was horrific… a miracle the casualty rate wasn’t any higher.
yet again another marvellous video, i am actually heading home to London this Tuesday but only for a couple of days, first time home in about 3 years, staying in the heart of the city this time and actually had a mini pub crawl worked out but i think i might just have to add one or two from your video's, Thanks again Rob for the top notch work.👏👏🎬
Such a wonderful comment, thank you! Hope you have a great time when you come back 😉 Thanks so much for the kind words and stay well.
The long awaited release! Here now after your drip fed teases. I had to watch some of the back catalogue in the meantime.
Ha ha! So sorry to keep you waiting! I must admit, this one was a lot of work, I’ve not slept much the past few days as you may be able to tell from parts of the narration 😂 The incredible support and kind words I receive from wonderful folks such as yourself though make it very worthwhile 😊 Cheers and stay well
must do that walk
Hope you do ;-) Stay well.
An amazing piece of research, and so quickly done!
Thank you so much :-)
Oh, well done!! 👏 Your videos are always so informative and engaging. We're planning to move to London this summer, and look forward to doing this pub crawl (although I don't think we'll manage to complete it in one day!) Look forward to your next video 😊🚇
Thank you so much Deborah 😊 Where are you moving from may I ask? Thanks again for the kind words; I truly appreciate it. Stay well.
@@Robslondon We're moving from Zürich. Looking forward to doing lots of exploring, and will enjoy seeing some of the things you vlog about in person!
@@DeborahMaufer Thanks Deborah :-) Hope you have a great time when you get here!
Excellent, this inspired me to subscribe
Thanks so much Alan; good to have you here!
Such a great video. I had a ride on part of this line last weekend and was very impressed. So much history in those old pubs :) Looking forward to your video about The Blind Beggar.
Thanks so much for your lovely comment Darren, much appreciated :-) I'm hoping to cover the Blind Beggar later in the year, so please do stay tuned! Cheers and stay well.
Cheers, Mate! Well done!
Cheers Tony!
Interesting video, I plan to do the pub crawl as I have never been on the line, I might have been to some of the pubs but I can’t remember
Have fun Richard ;-)
Absolutely spot on video! Very nice selection of pubs, was on the Elizabeth line on the 24th as well. It is truly awesome and transformational!
Lovely comment Daryl, thank you so much 😊
Hermoso. Moderno
☺️
Rob that was another brilliant video, great work.. I’ve been to six of the pubs including doing a DJ gig at the Betsy Trotwood some 20 odd years ago! However unlike your excellent video I tried the Elizabeth Line last night and it was found wanting. Whilst the actual on board journey times are quick the ‘inter connectivity’ ( bit like the DLR ) seems lacking - the journey last night took well over an hour from Lea Bridge Stn - Stratford- Liverpool St - Paddington - Ken High St. Oh & thanks pointing out there is a direct change to the Bakerloo line at Paddington…. Hopefully when they joined together it’ll get quicker! Also thanks for the Abbey Wood background & William Morris - never heard of it before! 😊👍 Looking forward to your next video 👍
Cheers Jonnie! Yes, I think there are a few teething problems at the moment. I believe the trains will be more frequent once it’s all seamless. Cheers and stay well.
Of course the only person in orange at bond Street in your vid was sitting down I'm guessing that has nothing to do with the reason it's not finished great vid as always 🍻
😂 Cheers Michael- I’m sure he’s doing a top job 😉
Maybe security in case the train does stop.
The pub at Paddington should be the Mad Bishop and Bear in the station.
I don’t know much about its history unfortunately Charlie.
