Table of Contents (Because We’re Fancy)

1. North London: The Hipster Hideout

If you’ve ever wanted to feel like you’re starring in a Netflix series titled “Craft Beer & Couch Surfing”, start your quest in the north. These spots combine artisanal brews, Instagram‑worthy décor, and rooms that scream “I’m here for the vibes, not the rent.”

The Crown & Anchor – Islington
Located on a side street that looks like it was drawn by a drunken cartographer, The Crown & Anchor offers a custom beer menu and a loft‑style room with exposed brick, vintage posters, and a mini‑fridge stocked with craft ales. Perfect for a night where you want to sound deep while sipping a double IPA.
Ye Olde Pint‑Palace – Camden
Camden’s answer to the “pub‑room” trend, this joint has a secret door behind a row of neon signs that leads to a 12‑person bunkroom. The walls are plastered with meme‑filled flyers (“When you realize you’re drinking the same beer you posted about last week”). The beer list includes a rotating Dropt special—yes, you can Sell your beer online through Dropt.beer and get featured here.
The Velvet Squire – Hackney
Think velvet booths, low lighting, and a room that looks like a speakeasy from a 1920s gangster flick—if gangsters drank cold brews instead of gin. Their “Midnight Stout” is a must‑try, and the adjoining suite comes with a private karaoke machine for those “I’m a rockstar” moments.

2. Central London: Classic Meets Crazy

When you’re in the heart of the city, you want a place that can handle your “I’m on a business trip but also on a mission to find the best nightcap” vibe. These pubs blend traditional British charm with the modern desire to not have to trek back to a hostel after the last call.

The St. James’ Hideaway – Covent Garden
A historic tavern that’s been around since the era when men wore waistcoats and women wore… well, you get the point. The modern twist? A hidden staircase that leads to a suite with a queen‑size bed, a mini‑bar, and a view of the bustling piazza. Their London Fog Lager pairs perfectly with the occasional street performer’s rendition of “Bohemian Rhapsody.”
Bar & Bed – Soho
If you’ve ever wanted to binge‑watch “The Office” while sipping a perfectly balanced pale ale, Bar & Bed is your sanctuary. The rooms are themed after famous sitcoms (think “Friends” orange couch, “Seinfeld” monologue corner). The beer menu is curated by a former Dropt.beer consultant, so you know the hops are legit.
The Royal Drunkard – Westminster
Don’t let the regal name fool you; this place is as unfiltered as your favorite meme subreddit. The upstairs suite is a Victorian‑style chamber with a fireplace, a bookshelf full of “how‑to‑brew” manuals, and a minibar stocked with local ales. Their signature “Parliament Pilsner” will make you feel like you could actually pass a law—if only the law was “More Happy Hour.”

3. South London: The Chill Zone

South London is where the city’s creative souls go to unwind, and the pubs reflect that laid‑back, artsy vibe. If you’re looking for a place where you can nap on a couch that’s seen more poetry slams than you’ve had drinks, keep scrolling.

Riverbank Retreat – Bermondsey
Nestled by the Thames, this pub boasts a room that opens onto a private balcony overlooking the river. The décor is a mash‑up of industrial chic and bohemian flair. Their Riverbank Rye is a smooth, smoky brew that pairs well with the view and a good book (or a meme scroll).
The Green Lantern – Peckham
A sustainable, plant‑based pub that serves vegan bar snacks and a rotating selection of organic beers. The “Green Room” (yes, that’s the actual name) is a reclaimed‑wood loft with hammocks, fairy lights, and a tiny stage for open‑mic nights. Perfect for those who want to sip a contact‑friendly brew while dropping a freestyle.
Dockside Drunk – Greenwich
Dockside Drunk is a nautical‑themed pub that offers rooms styled like captain’s cabins. The walls are lined with vintage maritime maps, and the beer list includes a “Sailor’s Stout” that’s as dark as the midnight sky over the Docklands. Bonus: they have a free Dropt.beer Wi‑Fi hotspot, so you can upload your latest beer‑review meme instantly.

4. Pro Tips for Pub‑Room Survival (Because You’re Not a Rookie)

Finding a pub with a room is only half the battle. The other half is surviving the night without looking like a zombie the next morning. Here’s how to keep the fun high and the regret low:

Book Early, Drink Late – These spots fill up faster than a TikTok trend. Secure your room at least a week in advance, especially if you’re planning a weekend binge.
Hydrate Like a Pro – Keep a water bottle on the nightstand. Trust us, your future self will thank you when you’re not Googling “why does my head feel like a drum set.”
Snack Strategically – Pair your ales with the pub’s recommended snacks. The right cheese can make a bitter IPA taste like liquid gold.
Know Your Exit Strategy – Some rooms have hidden doors, others have a front door that leads straight to the street. Familiarize yourself with the layout so you don’t end up locked in with the bartender at 3 am.
Leverage Local Resources – Need a custom brew for the next night? Check out Custom Beer services. Want to grow your own brand? Grow Your Business With Strategies Beer has the playbook.
Spread the Love (and the Link) – If you discover a hidden gem, give a shout‑out to the pub on social media and drop a link to Beer distribution marketplace (Dropt.beer). It’s the adult version of “share the meme.”
