Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese review: Much-loved 16th century pub on Fleet Street

This is one of the many pubs that were rebuilt in 1667, following the Great Fire of London.

The Cheshire Cheese has been on this site since 1538, but its vaulted cellars are thought to have once been part of a 13th century monastery.

With its dark wood panelled walls, comforting fire and saw-dusted floorboards, the Cheshire Cheese feels like a Dickensian time warp. The seating areas in the cellars mean it is considerably bigger than it appears from the outside.
