The prancing pony will always be the most legendary inn in fantasy. It hosted a maia and one of the elvish rings multiple times, the One ring and its bearer, the heir of Isildur, and other important figures.
@@valentinkambushev4968 Only the Nazgûl were entrusted by Sauron to actually retrieve the One Ring so it is very unlikely any of the other spies in the area knew about it. The Nazgûl would not have entrusted such an attack to anyone else but themselves.
As a northern man from Yorkshire, the pubs and inns of middle earth remind me of my own local establishments in the local towns and villages. If you've never been to a small Yorkshire pub with the fire in the fireplace, and a plate of roast lamb and vegetables, along with a pint of good Yorkshire beer, you've missed out. 🏴🇬🇧
@@GaryYork-tk2ow It's on my list for sure. I lived in Europe for several years, and it's one of the things I always dreamed of, touring the north of England and Scotland, I've been to London, and that's fine, I like the museums, but I am a county girl. Not sure now that I will get a chance to get back across the Atlantic, but one never knows! Thanks!
@youcancallmeana Northern England is a completely different world from the south, especially London. It's more like what England used to be like years ago. The people are friendlier I think, and the countryside is simply amazing. If you come, take a tour through Yorkshire, its the most beautiful region of the country I think. Although I might be a wee bit biased!
I can attest to your statements my friend, I'm a southerner from West Sussex having visited York recently, the nearby villages and pubs definitely host more of a fantastical/traditional vibe which I don't feel for my local pubs
There is always something about pubs and inns that brings or adds so much more life to a fantasy world than anything else, perhaps more so than any other added aspect. People meet and are met, stories are exchanged, information is gained, food is eaten, drinks are drank, songs are sang, adventurers rest and adventures begin.
The Ivy Bush in Birmingham is only 450 metres from The Oratory, which played an important role in Tolkien's life. 300 metres away is Perrot's Folly, reputed to be one of the towers that influenced Tolkien's Two Towers. The other tower was either the tower like structure at Edgbaston Waterworks, only 0.5 kilometre away or the clock tower at Birmingham University, which is 2 kilometres from the Ivy Bush. I used to see these every working day travelling to and from work.
I'd be curious to see a video about the 1960's expansion of The Hobbit and its differences - this is my first time learning about it and can't seem to find much about it online.
Hell yea! I didn't know I needed such content but I felt so happy for these little ordinary details to be mentioned. Can you also do a video about food of Middle-earth? From Numenor, Valinor to shire and Mordor, I wonder what they ate and drink, what were accepted as delicacy, how the food came to existence during the Song of Creation etc.
I didn’t even finish to watch the whole video, but I just love the idea of a video dedicated to the pubs of Middle-earth! 😍 Especially as it's one 1:00 am in my time zone and I just came back from a pub 😅 Thank you for your amazing content, I am so happy every time I see a new video of yours being released! You deserve the 1M subscribers!
...I don't know where you find all those amazing images, but the Golden Perch felt suddenly very appealing - looking stunning... I would start the day with visiting Farmer Maggot, then taking the Buckleberry Ferry over to Buckland, have a look at the magnificent Brandy Hall, and eventually taking the ferry back and make my way through the approaching dusk just in time before dark to get to the Inn, for sustenance and a bed... if I got the distances right, I might need a pony for this ...not sure if you could drag it onto the ferry, but I could just leave it bound to the jetty, until my return... 😃
Congratulations on your 1 million subscriber milestone! I'm happy to be one of your subscribers. Your content is always a fun and interesting watch to spend time on, and I appreciate you keeping alive the interest and appreciation for the works of Professor Tolkien.
One of the most beautiful and warm videos I've seen. Everything related to Hobbits seems so cozy. After watching your other videos on them I'm starting to think they may be my favorite people of Middle Earth.
Thinking about inns, pubs or taverns in LotR or other fantasy worlds always gives me a warm feeling inside. A rest after an adventure. Congrats on 1 million subs once again! 🎉 Cheers! 🍯🍻
The dim light, the smoke in the air, the smell of many delicious meals and drinks, the plethora of chats and laughters, the sight of many fantastic races from distant lands. Just the thought makes me feel warm and cozy.
I can't believe I wasn't well for the live stream. I'm seriously gutted not to share that moment with you and the rest of the amazing community. Congrats again Matt. You deserve this. I remember a comment I made well over a year ago.. "We don't just subscribe for the Tolkien content but also because of the person talking about Tolkien." We invest just as much time to yourself Matt as we do to the content matter.. You are a good person and that is why you have hit the 1 mill subs. NOW ON TO 2 MILLION !!!!
According to research conducted by a branch of the Tolkien Society, the Bell Inn in Moreton-in-Marsh was the source of inspiration when Tolkien created the Prancing Pony, since the former also has three storeys and an "entrance via a courtyard, and Moreton's similarities to the town of Bree".
I just finished Lord of the Rings today, and this is the first time I've watched one of your videos in over a month. Congrats on 1 million subscribers!
Congrats on 1M! I had no idea there were so many pubs mentioned in LOTR. Of course, I've only read it a few times, and there's just so much to process.
My favorite inn is from the 1st ed of the newer RPG "The One Ring." The version was written by cubicle 7. It'd called the Easterly Inn, it's closest to the elven gate of Murkwood.
truly! Actually anything related to Hobbits feels so cozy and beautiful. After watching two other videos on this channel on Hobbits and their pipeweeds, I'm starting to think that they are probably my most favorite people of Middle Earth.
I'm surprised there wasn't a settlement where the East-West Road crossed the Anduin River, even if that settlement didn't last the tests of time. CONGRATS on your subscriber milestone!
Congrats on the 1 million subs Matt! I remember when you just had some 90 thousand subscribers and am happy to see your hard work be appreciated by a number of people it deserves.
Congratulations on reaching one million subscribers! You are my absolute favorite and most-trusted channel for all things Tolkien. Keep up the most excellent work, here's raising a pint to you! (Yes, it comes in pints!)
That was fun. I have always imagined that the "tree men" mentioned that night in the Green Dragon were probably the lost Ent Wives. As a suggestion, would you might do a bit on Bag End itself? I have always been fascinated by what that would look like.
Man I love the feeling of the pubs in middle earth, maybe the way Tolkien describes them. I just feel like spending hours there just sitting and chatting with strider
Holy molé, a million subs, congrats! And another cool, cozy vid with gorgeous art choices as well. BUUUUT...something I only learned a few years ago is that although on paper a tavern/inn (or inn/tavern) sounds great, that concept is NOT based on historical reality, which has them separated like 90% of the time for a simple reason: When somebody is trying to sleep (night OR day), they're not trying to hear a bunch of gdmf noise, that's just gonna force them to buckle on their weapons, come downstairs and DEAL WITH IT.
I love that you're between inns.. are you the ruined treasure or the lost nothing? Only time will tell, but your soul knows now... How much of you is unknown an unseen? Surely not the best, but good luck on finding worth again, you're so close!
MASSIVE MASSIVE CONGRATULATIONS ON THE MILLION SUBS!!! thoroughly deserved for all your amazing content...I can speak for all us Tolkien fans throughout our Middle Earth in saying Cheers 🍻
Magnífico vídeo, no me arrepiento de haberme suscrito a éste magnífico canal, sobre el tema Tolkien y toda la fantasía del Señor de los Anillos 👏👏👏👏👏👏🤗👍
Huge congratulations on the well-deserved milestone. It’s always a joy to watch your well-researched and wonderfully-presented videos. Thank you for sharing your efforts with all of us, and here’s to many more!
In the MMORPG Lord of The Rings Online, you can visit all of these Inns and taverns. Barliman Butterbur in The Prancing Pony has a few quest for you, and Strider is lurking in the back. The Forsaken Inn in The Lone Lands hasa proprieter named Anlaf. You can even do a pub crawl around The Shire visiting all of the towns as you go.
Fantastic effort. Congratulations on the 1M. A win for the world of men! Also, love this video. Thanks for the artwork links. Beautiful images. Thoroughly enjoyed watching this. Thank you.
there is a real life greed dragon pub in the new forrest hampshire england. it is the most importaint pub in the region, as it holds the brands and records for the livestock losed on the forrest. hampshires obsession with mushrooms, a double portion or more is normal
A very useful video. I've been GM'ing adventures in The One Ring, and knowing about other inns than just The Green Dragon, The Ivy Bush, and The Prancing Pony will be useful for the players' downtime and rumour mill
I’m on of those people who’s trying to find the perfect beer to pair with a marathon or viewing of the movies. So far, Samuel Smiths is the best I can get my hands on. The lager is my favorite, but the nut brown ale and organic pale ale are the two that seem the most fitting.
If you can find a way to go do the Hobbiton Dinner experience in New Zealand (Last tour of the day with a Hobbit Feast at the Green Dragon after), you GOTTA go. We had so much fun.
That is really amusing and at the same educative... I had always depicted Bree the way the movies did before I read the book myself; but when I took a seat and read the book, I realized Bree was not an ideal type of a pub/inn as there were spies hovering around the area, you know HAHA ... I think if I had to choose between Bree and Green Dragon, I would choose the person who has just got his one million-and-counting subscribers a few days back... Again, congrats on your milestone!
Very interesting video! Do the Hobbits ever drink spirits? I know they love their beer and wine, but no mention is made, I don't believe, of anything stronger.
Awesome seeing your channel grow. Best LOTR content and educated me a lot on the lore without me reading the books. Feels like only yesterday you were around 200k when I subscribed. Keep it up!!
The good vs evil of fantasy is always such a pull but in like most universes I find myself wanting to spend my time with the common folk, a have a blue milk at the cantina in Star Wars, a butterbeer at the three broomsticks but most of all visit my friends in the shire and share tales at the green dragon over a beer ❤
Which pub of Middle-earth is your favorite?
The Green Dragon! 🍻
Got to be the Green Dragon
Green Dragon in Lord of the Rings Online always go here to get jobs.
My moniker derives from the Green Dragon.
I think I heard that Moria once had the Mornings Bane..
A far better pub over Mordors The Gondorians Neck that Sauron pops in at weekends.
The prancing pony will always be the most legendary inn in fantasy. It hosted a maia and one of the elvish rings multiple times, the One ring and its bearer, the heir of Isildur, and other important figures.
That’s actually crazy to think about lol, never really did until you summed this up
*Isildur
Also the only Inn to be attacked by the Ringwraiths.
@@backwashjoe7864 that's only in the movie. In the book, we never learn who attacked the room (I think). Still might have been them, though.
@@valentinkambushev4968 Only the Nazgûl were entrusted by Sauron to actually retrieve the One Ring so it is very unlikely any of the other spies in the area knew about it. The Nazgûl would not have entrusted such an attack to anyone else but themselves.
The green dragon is the best pub. The only brew for the brave and true comes from the green dragon.
The green dragon in middle earth? ,or the green dragon down the road from my house?
Good one, awesome.
only brew for the brave and true
I wholeheartedly agree.
Merry: "PIPPIN!!!"
As a northern man from Yorkshire, the pubs and inns of middle earth remind me of my own local establishments in the local towns and villages. If you've never been to a small Yorkshire pub with the fire in the fireplace, and a plate of roast lamb and vegetables, along with a pint of good Yorkshire beer, you've missed out. 🏴🇬🇧
I know I have missed out, but happy to hear you describe it here.

I don't think i've ever seen someone make a video on the pubs of Middle-Earth until now. I look forward to watching this later!

A proper topic for 1M! Solid choice, NotR! Let's go for 2M!!
I'd love to see a fan film chronicling the journey of Bill the Pony back to Bree, perhaps as an intro to Tolkien for modern children.
brilliant!
I agree
Amazing idea!
very nice idea. Even a book with tales for children could be drawn.

I used to see these every working day travelling to and from work.
A video about the happening places of a fantasy world that isn't about cursed places, battlefields, or capitals? YES
I've never heard of Tolkien's Hobbit expansion. Could you make a video about it? :)
“There’s only one Dragon in Bywater, and that’s Green.”
🐉🍻
Sometimes you wanna go
Where Underhill is not your name.
I'd be curious to see a video about the 1960's expansion of The Hobbit and its differences - this is my first time learning about it and can't seem to find much about it online.
Congrats on 1 million! I feel keeping Pippin away from the pubs. I'm going on 6 years of sobriety and I still have to keep myself from going back.
Stay strong my friend!
Congratulations on your 6th anniversary!
I've always wondered about Rivendell also being referred to as "The last homely house"....? Hospitality in the wild. Not a pub or inn---but a refuge.
I’m pleased to see a Tolkien lore channel get past 1M subscribers. It’s not surprising though; this channel is great.
Hell yea! I didn't know I needed such content but I felt so happy for these little ordinary details to be mentioned. Can you also do a video about food of Middle-earth? From Numenor, Valinor to shire and Mordor, I wonder what they ate and drink, what were accepted as delicacy, how the food came to existence during the Song of Creation etc.

I'm always intrigued by the remote pub called the Forsaken inn
I love how thorough you are in flushing out every sort of topic in middle earth. Keep up the good work.

The green dragon at the Hobbiton Movie Set in Matamata New Zealand is AMAZINGly well done. Highly recommend for any LotR fan.
"You can have your fancy ails! You can drink them by the flag on! But the only brew for the brave and true!!!" You finish it 😊

One of my favorite topics hands down. Give me a pint at these places all day everyday
After watching this I love Tolkien's works even more and I'd love to hang up there in those inns with a cozy company.

That first one sounds like "Ratskeller", which is the German word for a bar in a cellar. Neat connection.
Congrats on your 1M subs. Keep up the good work!!! And Go AVS!!!
Man I enjoy every video on your channel and appreciate the time you put in to them. Great job. Could you cover the stone giants in the Hobbit?
A good publican is a rare thing these days.
Congratulations on 1M ❤ Keep those videos coming
I’d like to make a party at The Prancing Pony to celebrate with you one million subscribers. Congratulations!
Congratulations on getting one million subscribers 🎉

Congrats on hitting the 1M milestone.
Great idea! Always excellent content.
Congratulations Nerd of the Rings. This is well deserved! You contributed so much to the MiddleEarth community. Here's to more! 🍻
So where in the world do we find today lovely and cozy inns with a good beer culture?
I would love to live in the shire! 😊
Congratulations on 1million!
You do great work!
Hey man love your channel you are truly worthy to wield Narsil keep it going my brother
What a fun 1M celebration video! Congratulations! 😎☮️
Such a minor point but shows the richness of JRRT' s work
Very interesting video!
Do the Hobbits ever drink spirits? I know they love their beer and wine, but no mention is made, I don't believe, of anything stronger.
Awesome seeing your channel grow. Best LOTR content and educated me a lot on the lore without me reading the books.
Feels like only yesterday you were around 200k when I subscribed.
Keep it up!!
I would still recommend you read the books though.
Congratulations, on 1M! Well earned.
The good vs evil of fantasy is always such a pull but in like most universes I find myself wanting to spend my time with the common folk, a have a blue milk at the cantina in Star Wars, a butterbeer at the three broomsticks but most of all visit my friends in the shire and share tales at the green dragon over a beer ❤
