drinking in the Gangster pubs of London!

I walk around London and drink in the Gangster pubs. I get in the famous Kray twins pubs they used to drink and do all their dodgy deals at! I get also get into the Blind Begger where Ronnie Kray shot George Cornell!

Join Me on this historic drinking walk of London's most notorious pubs!

You brought back some memories for me. Used to drink in the Begger at weekends back in the 80s and drink lunchtimes in the Bkackfriars in the 90s...great stuff.

Nothing wrong with the Blind Beggar. Great pub and brilliant people.

Me uncle took me in the blind beggar when I was 22yrs old in 1988, he told me the history of the pub, I'm 58yrs now, happy memories of my 2yrs working in London on the whitleys restoration job in Bayswater, so many stories to tell, all true too 👍

The Blind Beggar became famous after the 1966 shooting of Cornell, but there is another pub called the White Hart across the road almost unknown. There are actually two White Hart pubs in Whitechapel.

Visited London back from Japan last year, and can't believe how much it's changed. London feels like a completely different country. It's rare to hear an English accent in London nowadays, let alone a London accent.

Another brilliant video, one of my favourite channels

Day before George Cornell was shot the Krays came into the Tailors my mum worked for and cancelled the suit they were making for him, even paid up the bill for what with had already been done.

It's criminal the price of a pint in London😂😂

Watched all your videos and I like this one the most...Good video mate keep up the good work

One of the joys about travelling all over the country is trying the local beers that you'd otherwise never encounter. Sticking to Guinness is so boring and unimaginative. Its an ok beer for sure but there are so many much better beers. All that's required is a bit of inquisitiveness.

Did you notice the thick chains hanging down from the centre of every table in the blind begger? That's for the tourists to chain their bags to. Otherwise the locals keep robbing the bags. Now that is a rough pub! 😂. I was in last week.

[SussexMatt]

Hang on, was that Wendall with you in the Beggar? Did you take him on a pub crawl? That last one mate, my old man gave me a rule of thumb, never go in a pub with a flat roof and steel shutters. I've done a few and really should have listened to my dad! :D

[DavidUKesb]

The Krays used the Grave Maurice on Whitechapel Road a lot, although I think it's closed down now. I used to drive past it in the 1980s to watch boxing at York Hall.

[Nickpaintbrush]

Nice blood red ceiling in there mate and I think you had a lucky escape there mate with the pub that was shut by the looks of it!

[chuckyarla]

I work right near that last pub in Blackfriars. I knew you would be raging at the prices😂. Had a couple in there once myself but the silly price of Guinness put me off. Love your videos. Keep it up mate!

[FraserJCovers]

Great video as always mate, always a good watch...thank you x

[wayneeboiii]

watched a good few of your videos i subbed straight away but this 1 was by far the best for me :) such interesting history surrounding the krays thanks bud

[stevoelmo]

Major cities up North are the same price as London and those £7 pints are simply tourist traps. There are plenty of pubs under £5 and a fair few under £4!

[kevinmoore]

Im going into London for a bit of street photography tomorrow I'm only half hour away on the train, I'll be having a beer in the Blackfriars and a few other pubs, great video mate.

[fordprefect]

Wow that last one, what a great little pub. Cheers from Newcastle Australia.
