These places all look sterile and gimmicky.
A couple of weak entries from London? I’d rather find the kind of place where I might find Mr. Pickwick, Andy Capp or Bertie Wooster.
Also, I find it weird that Dubai has so many entries.
I first went to the original Long Bar at Raffles Hotel in Singapore in the mid eighties. It was great - dingy, dark and reeking of history. Back ten years later after it had been refurbished - slick and touristy, they had utterly ruined it.
