Proprietor: Guy Ritchie

Location: Mayfair, London, UK

Joining Al Murray and Roxy Mitchell as one of Britain's most famous landlords, Guy Ritchie bought the London pub in 2008, partly (we assume) to create a country idyll in the middle of Mayfair and partly so Jason Flemyng could have somewhere to go for his bangers and mash. It's the ideal spot for a right cock-er-nee knees-up, with a portrait of Sir Winston presiding magisterially over wizened locals, Hollywood types, and an Irish house band soon to release its first album courtesy of a record label Ritchie has set up for them. It's also the kind of place where everyone knows your name, but probably because your name is Mickey Rourke.
