It's hard to find the really good pubs in most places in the world
of any size, but London presents special challenges, for a number of
reasons. First, there is the sheer size of the city, which has a
population larger than many countries. Second, there is the enormous
number of pubs (about 4000, according to many sources). And, third,
there is the vast difference in quality between the average pubs and
the really good ones.
