The John Snow

The John Snow pub in Broadwick Street, Soho was named in honour of Dr John Snow (1813-1858). Known for leading in the development and adoption of anesthesia. He is also considered one of the fathers in epidemiology because of his work in tracing the source of a cholera outbreak to a water pump (which once stood outside the John Snow pub) in 1854.

This is a great pub, if you can get in. It gets very busy. The bar is divided up into three areas. I especially love the tiny little door that connects two of the areas.
