To end the morning in Mayfair I ended up in the Punch Bowl Pub, at one time owned by Madonna and her then husband Guy Ritchie, who bought it in 2008. It was visited by Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert Downy Jnr and the younger members of the Royal Family. It has since been sold on.
They don’t take cash and all transactions are by card, which was handy for me, this was handy as I forgot I had no real money until after I had ordered a drink.

@Ronrybs It's more convenient, and money is dirty.

Madonna? Hmm interesting. Didn't know she had her nose stuck in pubs too.

Well said! I also carry some cash, just in case the credit card machine does not work. It happens time by time.
