Christmas drinks in Clapham

I can't wait to get back to Clapham for Christmas. Germany is brilliant during the festive season - xmas markets, gluhwein, festivals and fairs, but sometimes you just can't beat a tipple down the local with your mates. Man, I miss British pubs. Now, you may think Clapham is all overpriced cocktails and yuppy bread shops, but i've actually discovered quite a few hidden gems over the years. Here's my list of the top 5 christmas pubs in and around Clapham

1. The Coach & Horses - Brilliant local pub. They get the fire going in the winter and they do a fantastic christmas dinner. Lots of wintery ales on tap.

2. The Frog and Forget me Not - If you can brave the roof terrace, this is a great spot for a mulled wine or two!

3. The Royal Oak - Candle lit, snug and brilliant for a sunday afternoon

4. The Canton Arms - It's not really in Clapham, but it's a great pub. Lots of xmas games in here!

5. The Rose & Crown - Very cute little pub. Great selection of dark beers for those cold winter nights
