P.S. A bit of history – if you are that way inclined:

The Sir John Hawkshaw is located on the site of the remains of a Roman palace built in the 1st century...it doesn't get much older than that!

Far below this railway station are the remains of a Roman palace, built in the 1st century. The 'Steelyard', used by German and Flemish merchants, stood here from the 10th century until it was destroyed by the Great Fire of London (1666). The Livery Hall, built by the Company of Plumbers, occupied the site from 1690 until the 1860s. It was replaced by Cannon Street Station, designed by Sir John Hawkshaw.

Before you ask - the reason I chose this venue, was cost, it's a quiet part of London at the weekend so relatively easy to book, the venue is pretty central to most and Wetherspoons suits most palates and pockets.
