I generally go to the Distillers if I'm in the area. Good selection of booze is my #1 requirement.

I've not found anywhere really great round there but the Distillers is decent and near the tube and The Blue Anchor and The Dove on the river are both nice but a little further away.

I've been there before... full of these dreaful 'cyclist' types with their 3/4 shorts and their fixie bieks. Every bloody Thursday, getting drunk and falling over each other they were. Simple dreadful crowd of people...

Best no-nonsense boozer nr Fitzrovia/Lambs Conduit St?
-

The Lamb seems the obvious choice.
Friend at Hand towards Russell Sq (will be busy tonight).
-

ta I thought Lamb looked good but nice to get on the ground advice!

I like the Sam Smith's Yorkshire grey.
Fitzrovia but not conduit -

Pubs with dartboards somewhere between Euston and London Bridge Northern Line. Any suggestions, cheers.

Sam Smiths can fuck right off.
They have a special machine which sucks the soul out of a real boozer. -

No, that's Young's and Fuller's.

Off to Royal Albert Hall tonight, anywhere worth grabbing a beer between South Kenny station and RAH?

The Queens Arms was quite nice from what I remember. https://www.thequeensarmskensington.co.uk/

Used to be one of my locals, great little pub, you'd get a strange mix of people in there which I really liked... Is it still like that?
-

Queen's arms? It still gets the staff/PG crowd from Imperial (bit upmarket for UG students), some of whom definitely qualify as strange, but I wouldn't have said it was particularly quirky the last time I was in. Still a great pub though.
For RAH-adjacent drinking the Imperial Union Bar (the one on the far back right if you go into Beit Quad off Prince Consort Road) is popular with Proms musicians. It has decent real ale and is cheap; technically it's a members' bar, but unless it's rammed you're usually ok to have a quiet pint.

I am meeting my half sister for the first time tomorrow (I’m 32, she’s 40 - only found out about her last year).
She’s staying around St James’ Park. Where’s a nice pub for a couple of drinks, nice and chilled but fun is the vibe I’m after. Suggestions? -

The Old Star, The Two Chairmen or The Feathers are regular 'traditional' post-work places.
Munich Cricket Club is a bierkeller in the other direction...Friday night is the oompah band night, but it's a decent venue on other nights too.
Bit further out there's the Windsor Castle (Sam Smiths) and also CASK, which is a superb craft beer place.

Thanks for such a thorough response!

Pub suggestions in the waterloo area.
Or happy to travel one or two stops on the tube.Requirements are:
Going on a saturday afternoon
Preferably not heaving busy
Traditional boozer rather than hipster craft ales.
Wont be eating
A few good ones by the river behind the apollo. Next to the bridge. High st pubs are shit unfortunately. Distillers on Fulham palace road is also good, but can get rammed
