Ye Olde Fighting Cocks
Reputedly the oldest pub in England, this unusual, octagon-shaped inn has oodles of charm. Oliver Cromwell spent a night here, stabling his horses in what's now the bar, and underground tunnels lead to the cathedral. Drink in this historic atmosphere while you nurse your pint.

White Horse
This tiny old-world place was a favourite retreat for TV detective Inspector Morse, and it can get pretty crowded in the evening. It's got buckets of character and makes a great place for a quiet afternoon pint and intellectual conversation.

Two Brewers
This 17th-century inn perched on the edge of Windsor Great Park is close to the castle's tradesmen's entrance and supposedly frequented by staff from the castle. It's a quaint and cosy place, with dim lighting, obituaries to castle footmen and royal photographs with irreverent captions on the wall.

Turf Tavern
Hidden away down a narrow alleyway, this tiny medieval pub is one of the town's best-loved and bills itself as 'an education in intoxication'. Home to real ales and student antics, it's always packed with a mix of students, professionals and the lucky tourists who manage to find it. It's one of the few pubs in town with plenty of outdoor seating.

Eagle & Child
Affectionately known as the 'Bird & Baby', this atmospheric place dates from 1650 and is a hotchpotch of nooks and crannies. It was once the favourite haunt of Tolkien, CS Lewis and their literary friends and still attracts a mellow crowd.

Eagle
Cambridge's most famous pub has loosened the tongues and pickled the grey cells of many an illustrious academic in its day; among them are Nobel Prize–winning scientists Crick and Watson, who discussed their research into DNA here. It's a traditional 17th-century pub with five cluttered, cosy rooms, the back one once popular with WWII airmen, who left their signatures on the ceiling.

Adam & Eve's
A 13th-century brew-house built to quench the thirst of cathedral builders, this is now Norwich's oldest-surviving pub and an adorable little sunken-floored gem. It's a tiny place just loaded with character and popular with discerning locals, old timers and those in search of a quiet pint. There's a pleasant outdoor courtyard for sunny days.
