Hilarious new Tube map shows where Londoners can find cheapest …
A fun new Tube map has revealed which venues sell the “cheapest gin and tonic” near each Zone 1 London Underground station. The research, conducted by mixer brand Lixir Drinks, found the cheapest gin and tonic can be found at The Huntley near Euston Square Station, where Tanqueray and tonic costs just GBP3.25. For gin lovers on the opposite side of the river, the mixing brand says The Ring near Southwark station offers a beefeater and tonic for GBP6.10, the cheapest price south of the river in zone one.
Whereas pubs near St. Paul’s Station and The Courtfield at Earl’s Court Station will “set gin and tonic lovers back in terms of price” with GBP10 for Beefeater or Bombay being the cheapest gin and tonic on offer. According to the company’s data, for those seeking a bargain, the most common “cheap” gin across zone one is Beefeater.
This costs an average of GBP7.24 for a single tonic, with the cheapest pub for a single Beefeater and tonic found at The Angel, next to Angel station at GBP5.41. READ MORE: The town that gives its name to 7 different Tube stations even though some of them are in completely different places

Lixir Drinks adds that the second most common gin is Bombay, “costing an average of GBP7.76 for a single with tonic in London”. Matt Mahatme, Co-founder at Lixir said: “As creators of our own tonic waters and mixers , we created this map because of our love for gin and tonic so we wanted to show people the ultimate pub crawl for gin and tonic day this year.
“To gather the data, we called the nearest pub to each Tube stop in zone one and asked how much they charge for their cheapest gin and tonic, and what type of gin this is. Our research shows buying a gin and tonic at every pub on our map would set you back GBP365.65. “The Tube map of London is an iconic design, and we acknowledge that this is not an official Tube map but instead a creative design by the Lixir team.
We hope gin and tonic lovers enjoy our spin on zone one’s locations this Gin and Tonic day.” Love the Tube with a passion? Sign up to MyLondon’s London Underground newsletter for all the latest news, analysis and trivia HERE.
