The Green Ginger - JD Wetherspoon

You'll find yourself down in the Winter Garden on Fleet Street, tucked into that lower ground floor space that's become a proper local anchor. It's the kind of place where you can grab a full breakfast for under a fiver, nurse a pint of something interesting, and actually hear your mates talk without shouting. The Green Ginger does exactly what it says on the tin—no faffing about with gastropub nonsense, just honest boozing and eating at prices that won't make you wince. Whether you're killing time before catching a bus down to Meadfoot Beach or meeting the crew after work, it delivers.
