The Saint Bar in London
In my travels I often run into The Saint in strange places, and it's surprising the number of bars named The Saint. Probably none of them have any relation to Leslie Charteris' Simon Templar, and yet there must be some connection?
Here's a short list of a few I know of in London:
- The Saint Bar and Kitchen on Rose Street near St Paul's Cathedral in London.
- Saint Bar on Great Newport Street near Leicester Square in London.
- Saint's Bar in The Saint Gregory Hotel near Liverpool Street in London.
I'm sure that there are others in many other cities around the world. I have heard of one in Boston, and another in Melbourne.Labels: 2006, Leslie Charteris

Until about 2 years ago, they also had a cream P1800 next to the dance floor :)
