Congratulations again to the Mitre for winning the East London & City Branch of the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) Pub of the Year 2008. Well done to Scotty and all the team. Thoroughly deserved.

"I love this place. The beer is always good and the atmospheric history of the place (Queen Elizabeth dancing with Hatton plus its 1546 structure)is enough to pull any but the least tastefulof visitors.
I haven't been for a few years as I no longer reside in London, and the last time I went it was closed (a Saturday evening). However, I wish to visit on a Christmas day out in the smoke."
It closes on Saturday and Sunday and was closed Xmas day but you probably found that out yourself. Watch out for May when apparently as I was reliably informed by the manager, they will have a selection of 18 milds on offer.

"It was apparently rebuilt externally shortly after 1772 and the interior remodelled in the 1930's."
The Back was built !546 and the front bar in 1781/2

Ye Old Mitre, Holborn
Still the best pub in London, but don't be telling everyone. This week Dark Star ale's are on. Also found out from the very friendly staff that they are opening Sat and Sun 9th and 10th of August from 12-5pm for the GBBF. Will definitely be worth a visit I'm sure.
