Price
Real observed pint prices, not guesses. Sort a night from the cheapest cellar in the borough to the ones worth paying for, and know the number before you order.
01 — What it costsEvery pint has a story.
Bring back pub crawling.
Cheap pints, chaotic nights, and the crawl stories worth passing down.
PUBMAXXING maps every real pint price and every pub worth the walk across London — so the night plans itself and the wandering is the point.

The wedge
Three questions every good pub answers.
A listings site tells you a pub exists. PUBMAXXING tells you what it costs, what it feels like, and why it has stood there for two hundred years.
Setting
By the water, a garden that catches the sun, or the right room on a wet Tuesday. Filter for the pub that fits the evening you actually want.
02 — Where it sitsStory
Listed buildings, coaching inns, the bar Dickens leaned on. Every pin carries the history on record — so a crawl reads like a walk through the city.
03 — Who came beforeThe PUBMAXXER
Tap a pub. Ask its story.
The PUBMAXXER is a grounded guide, not a fabulist. It only tells you what is on the record — the listing, the archive, the price someone added last week — and it says so plainly when the record runs out.
No invented anecdotes, no confident guesses. Every claim carries a source you can follow.

Who used to drink here?
Rebuilt in 1667 after the Great Fire, it is a Grade II listed tavern on Fleet Street. Dr Johnson lodged nearby and the pub has long claimed Dickens among its regulars.
The Dickens link is a house tradition rather than a documented fact — I would not state it as certain.

Cask Landlord, poured properly. My grandad drank here after his shifts at the brewery — same corner table, still the cheapest in Chiswick.

Pricey, but you drink it on the jetty watching the tide turn. Worth it once. Bring someone you like.

Pint Drops
The price you paid, and the note you pass down.
Log what your pint actually cost and leave a line worth keeping — the corner your dad favoured, the garden that ruins you for other gardens. Prices keep the map honest; the notes keep it human.
One generation hands its pub knowledge to the next, one drop at a time.
Fresh from the taps
The golden days
For the nights you half-remember, and the pubs you never forgot.
Before the apps and the algorithms, a good pub was a whole education — the one room where art, history, coding, friendship and drinking collided and nobody wanted to leave.
Cheap pints, long tabs
When the round came to less than the bus fare home and you stayed until they turned the lights up. The pub was the cheapest good night in the city — and half of us were only there because we couldn't afford anywhere else.
Chaotic nights, worth it
The wrong turn that found the right pub. The lock-in you shouldn't have stayed for. The crawl that started as three of you and finished as fifteen, none of you sure whose idea the last one was.
Where everything collided
Art students arguing with historians, someone sketching a startup on a beer mat, old regulars who'd fixed the world a thousand times over. Friendship, history, coding and drinking, all at one sticky table. Those pubs made people.
Why it matters
London loses a pub roughly every week. The map is how we keep the table set.
The good pub was always the one room where the eighteen-year-old on their first legal pint and the regular on their forty-thousandth ended up at the same bar. PUBMAXXING is built to bring them back to it — Gen Z, Gen X, and everyone between — to the same tables, the same stories, the same round.
