Adam and Eve
This cosy pub on Swan Road opens at 09:00. Runners will pass here around the halfway mark if you fancy doing a bit of cheering, waving, etc.

Albannach
Albannach will be opening at 09:00 with a 12 foot screen showing the race. Perhaps not the best choice if you want a venue with a view but this is an excellent venue from which to sample the post-race atmosphere as both recovering runners and supporters fill the place out throughout the day.

St Stephens Tavern
St Stephen's Tavern opens at 10:00 and although the pub itself doesn't offer views of the runners, the place is usually heaving due to its location on the last mile of the route. Expect to be sharing the bar with recovering runners and event supporters.
10 Bridge Street,
Westminster,
London,
SW1A 2JR
Walrus and Carpenter
Follow the runners into the city from this excellent pub on Momument Street.
