The AlwaysTouch Inn?

oh I got nothing really...this is a tough one (especially since I'm not a frequent visitor to bars).

Maybe El Diablo? Or Eden's Crush? Or maybe it can be a variation of Ian's last name, in America we have lots of Irish bars with 0' this or 0 that.

All good suggestions - we've also had the Halifax Arms, The Aspidistra Flying (or my I still believe improved suggestion of The Flying Aspidistra) as a nod to George Orwell's ideal bar being called Moon Under Water (which many years later led to the chain we know and err love!?), Room 101 (another Orwellina reference), "Les Zianoush" or "Les Zianoush du Guinness" and The Podworth Arms.

Keep the guesses coming in. Cheers!

Be careful about that pub - the TfL lawyers might go to drink in there and see the mat.

Ah but it's officially licensed (in both meanings). The Museum shop has tons of stuff that seems most unlikely to have a Tube roundel on it!

Hmm old style names like that remind me of Tony Hancock's pubs "The Dog & Duck" and "The Hand & Racket"

How about a more modern one like The Litigious Lawyer? Or The Cease and Desist?

Two suggestion, if I may do two from you , are: The railway man and The snapping fingers (just a spontanious name)

The Cut & Cover? Or if you're going for the Irish theme, O'Toole's?

The Passengers Are Reminded That Smoking Is Not Permitted On Any London Underground Train or Station Inn

I really liked IanD's "AlwaysTouch Inn". That actually made me laugh out loud.

There are pubs called both "The Dog & Duck" and "The Hand & Racket" in Wimbledon.

Is that a stolen Hoegarden glass, Annie?

Stolen Hoegaarden glass? (please don't forget the two a's)

No, there was a special offer in Tesco or Sainsbury's with bottles Hoegaarden years ago where if you bought four bottles you got a free glass. I have loads of them as Hoegaarden is one of my favourite beers

I've actually been to the town of Hoegaarden. It's dwarfed by the brewery.

Ooh! a bottle of Duvel! Someone has taste!. That's what comes of having your other half besotted with Belgian beer I suppose! As for the name of a pub on the tube: 'Tipple on the Tube' would go down well for me.
