The Punch Bowl
If you’re one that scans the British tabloids from time to time, you’re likely to have seen photos of various A-Listers flowing in and out of Guy Ritchie’s Mayfair pub, The Punch Bowl. The pub has attracted the likes of Prince William and Prince Harry, and celebrity royalty like David Beckham and Leo. Located in one of London’s most posh sections, and with such a powerhouse roster of clients, one might expect Punch Bowl to be wholly inaccessible and perhaps pretentious. To the contrary, what’s fascinating about the place is that it’s actual quite lovely and basic. It’s done in a classic Georgian style, smartly appointed, in a building that dates back to the 18th century. It’s a perfect place to pop in for a couple pints, or settle in for a solid dining experience. Of course, the celebrity appeal doesn’t hurt the experience, as you never know when a starlet might come through and grab the table right alongside your own.
