Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Don't look for Rose Street in your A to Z; this dustbin-alley off Garrick St obviously didn't strike the cartographers as being somewhere anyone would want to go.
Nonetheless, tucked away here is this pub, which claims Dickens and friends as former habitues, plus 'the wits and gallants of the Restoration'. The interior hasn't changed much: the whole impression is of being hit by a gallon of brown gloss. This is an ideal place for the boys to have a testosterone-based revel: the only female presence here will generally be manning (or womaning) the pumps. The beer, reportedly, is excellent, varied and of the 'real' type.
