    My wife and I are vacationing in London this week and are taking in the NFL game at Wembley Stadium on Sunday. Looking for options for bars with a decent selection near the stadium (preferably walking distance). Any help would be appreciated.

    From my perspective, Wembley is best known as the place we have to go (reluctantly) for IKEA.
    There just isn't much in that area. Check out:

    Maybe The Corner House/Mannions??? JJ Moon is a Wetherspoons...so at least it is cheap and the cask lines should be well kept. Bottom line, you'll have to jump on the tube if good beer and selection is a critical factor.
    If anyone is more familiar with that area, please feel free to jump in and correct me.

    It's a bit of a shady area - I wouldn't venture anywhere round there. Hop on the Jubilee line from Wembley Park and go to The Rake in London Bridge / Borough Market. Great little boozer.

    You'll be in for a surprise If you're expecting cheeky chappies everywhere and Nags Heads on every corner. It might actually pay to learn some Gujarati.
