The best ice cream shops - England in 2024

Practical information : Take a break England

Timetable

Bars and pubs close quite early, between 11pm and 12am. Not all of them have a license to serve alcohol later. Some have this late license and can close around 2am. They are generally open from lunchtime. The rush is maximum after work, around 5pm and on Sundays all day. Happy hour is not very common in London. You can enjoy an afternoon tea, a formula including a tray of pastries and a cup of tea.

Budget & Tips

While alcoholic beverages are relatively expensive in pubs and bars, draught beer is affordable and always of very good quality.

Age restrictions

Minors can buy soft drinks, such as wine or beer, as young as 16 years old. But you must be 18 to be allowed to buy alcoholic beverages in a bar or nightclub.

What's very local

The most English of breaks is tea time. At home, at the office or in a tea room, it is always a moment between brackets, a welcome and essential breath.

Kids

During a meal, pubs generally accept children (but not often babies!) if they are accompanied by their parents or adult family members.

Smokers

You can't have your beer or tea while smoking in a pub, bar or other tea room. It is not allowed.
