"What To Get: An ale, then a sausage roll when the candles start to look like a sea of lava. Time Capsule Factor: Open-plan design hadn’t reached the people who built The Holy Tavern 300-odd years ago. Although the Clerkenwell drinking den was reopened in 1996, it has kept the 18th-century hideaway nooks and crannies, ups and downs, and multiple fireplaces spread over higgledy-piggledy wooden floors. If that wasn’t charming enough, on Tuesdays it’s lit solely by candlelight." - jake missing, sinead cranna, heidi lauth beasley, rianne shlebak
