Looking for a typical British pub? That's not possible, so forget about it. Every pub has it's own style. On one hand you have the traditional country pub, with real ale and a open fire. On the other you have modern pubs, with the younger customers and the loud music. Of course, the biggest cities has the biggest variety of pubs, and they are usually close to each other. (1)



The oldest pub in England is believed to be in Nottingham, and is named Ye Olde Trip To Jerusalem. This pub is also well known as a Inn, but these two is mostly the same thing. The pub is dating back to 1189. Unfortunately, many of the older pubs are taken over by larger corporations, and they are changed to modern pubs and European-style bars in the process. (1)



Even though Ye Olde Trip To Jerusalem is said to be the oldest pub, there is another pub that has the honour of being in the Guinnes World Records as the oldest pub in England. It's named Ye Olde Fighting Cocks, and it's located in St Albans, Heltfordshire. Many pubs claim to be the oldest. (2)
