On a training session yesterday I was told that Sloane Square was once
one of only two stations on the London Underground licensed to serve
alcoholic drinks.

The guide couldn't tell me what the other one was, though. Does anyone
here know?

Sloane Square was famous for having a bar (often described as a pub) on the
platform that was apparently used as a meeting place by several leading
literary figures.

Apparently Liverpool Street also had a bar on the eastbound Met/H&C/Circle
though whether it was a walk in and sit down job I'm not sure.

Baker Street and Victoria also seem to have had bars within the station but
not on the platforms so the information you were given may be slightly
incorrect.



The one a Victoria was on the site of the current District line ticket
office (the office not the public area)
