We've got a mission for you in
Five Pubs
The city of London is under threat from the Temperance Revival Union (Borough Branch, London), aka TRUBBL. Their plan? To turn all the Real Ale in the city into cold, lumpy gravy by activating hidden devices in casks of beer. MI5 has been working tirelessly to gather intel on TRUBBL, but they need your help to put an end to this pintless plot. Can you solve the clues and uncover the code to neutralize these stout devices before it's too late?
Five Pubs - St James Park to Market
Attention all agents! MI5 has drafted you in for a top-secret mission through the streets of London. Your adventure will take you from the scenic St James Park to the bustling Borough Market, passing by some of the city's most iconic sights and beloved pubs. But this is no ordinary pub crawl - you'll need to put on your detective hats and crack the clues hidden throughout the city to save the future of London's pubs.
So, gather your team and get ready for a thrilling self-guided Spy Mission through London. Can you work together to solve the riddles, crack the codes, and put an end to TRUBBL's dastardly plan?
Everything you've uncovered has led to this...
Use the intelligence you've gathered, crack the final challenge and bring the mission to a successful close.

More Information:
Before you set off on your awesome adventure, there are a few things you need to know...
The route is friendly for wheelchair users and pushchairs (please note that children are not allowed in The Cross Keys pub).
This Trail takes you through areas where pups are prohibited and through a very busy city centre, so we would not recommend bringing your four-legged friends along.
You will need to finish the first four miles in daylight as the final park of the Trail closes at dusk.
All pubs visited are open by midday all week (including Sundays), though serving times may vary.
Mini Secret Agent Club
Mini Secret Agent Club
We have three super duper themed Clubs for your child to enjoy as part of their Treasure Trail experience.
Perfect for 4-8 year olds, the concept behind the Clubs is that your child will get a bundle of goodies to excite
them about their forthcoming Trail experience, something to keep them entertained whilst travelling to and from
the Trail, and something to be given on completion of the Trail as a keepsake.
