The site shows the walking distance to every pub from its nearest Train, Tube, Tram or Metro Station.

It was developed by someone who likes travelling by train, and likes to visit pubs!

Walking distances are derived from Google Maps; for each pub, there is a link to the Google Maps directions, showing the walking distance and route.

Google Maps assumes a walking speed of about 3 miles per hour.

Use the Main Site if you know the pub you want to visit, and you want to find its nearest station.

Alternatively use the Stations page if you are at a station, and you want to find the nearest pub(s) (within a 20 minute walk).

Type a few characters in the Search box to narrow down the list of pubs displayed.

Walking routes are calculated by Google, and may not necessarily be a safe walking route, so care should be taken if the route suggests crossing or walking along a main road where there are no pavements or other safe walking route.

Click on the News page for a summary of proposed new pubs (with opening dates where known), and planned closures. If you can't find a pub, check the News page in case it has been closed.

Pubs which are also hotels are flagged with H in the main listings. If you want to search for hotels, use the string "Accomodation" in the search box (rather than "Hotel" which will also match any pubs with "Hotel" in their name)

Pubs on station premisis are flagged with S. If you want to search for pubs actually on station premisis, use the string "Onprem" in the search box.

Pubs which are franchised are flagged with F. If you want to search for franchised pubs, use the string "Franchise" in the search box.

Pubs at airports are flagged with A (Airside (after security)) or A (Landside (before security)) in the main listings. If you want to search for pubs at airports, use one of the strings "Airside" or "Landside" in the search box.

Feedback and corrections are welcome, and will be gratefully incorporated into the site.
