The last place I visited was a friends house in Hounslow. We were going to do that walking over the dome thing but it rained too much.
Worst place is probably Hounslow as well
Best place was San Francisco

It boasts the smallest pub in europe. The Circus Tavern is pretty decent too but it gets full.
Portland street is just round from Piccadilly though. The Shakespeare is hidden and a bit of an old feel pub.

Perhaps a person needs to be an uncultured juvenile in order to do so.
Certainly the overwhelming number of crammed-full chain bars would back this theory up.
As a 34 year old it was distinctly underwhelming.
