Percy Arms

You know you've found something special when the regulars at the bar give you a nod rather than a glare. This Percy Street stalwart has that rare quality of feeling like your local even if you've never been before – the kind of place where conversations flow as easily as the well-kept ales. The interior strikes that perfect pub chord: worn wooden floors that have seen decades of good nights, mismatched furniture that somehow works, and enough character in the walls to fuel hours of people-watching. It's the sort of spot where you pop in for a quick pint and somehow find yourself three hours later, deep in conversation with someone you've just met. The staff know their beer and aren't precious about it, which makes all the difference when you're deciding between the guest ales.
