    The Man in the Moon is nice, and possibly the mellowest place in the world. You can sit there motionless with your eyes closed the whole night, and nobody checks your pulse

            The Ship and shovel, under Charing cross, (opposite end of the arches from Heaven).
            The Red Hand, Ballyclare, sadly missed.
            The Kicking Donkey, Burwash Weald, which used (80's) to have a commando assault course outside, brilliant fun after a skinful.....
            'The old Inn' Genep, Niederlands
            The Monkey House, somewhere along the A272.
            The Ypres castle, Rye (don't dare pronounce it anything other than 'wipers')

              The "Whippet Inn"
              How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

                I like that one, perhaps a sister pub call "Whippet Out Again"?

                  Of course there's The Monkey's Forehead round Egham way. Full of the lovely ladies of Royal Holloway.

                    There used to be a cafe in Cowes called Egon Rodnays, it was also a joke shop and sold some "marital aids". Egon Ronay got wind of this and tried to sue the cafe, the cafe had to change its name. It cost Ronay about £30k in total, didnt cost the cafe a penny, but got lots of free publicity. It even had a visit from Ruby Wax.

                    Apparently one of Ronays main gripes was that it served tinned mushrooms.
