Chinese President Xi Jinping headed for a traditional British pub on Thursday, during his state visit, indulging in a beer and a portion of traditional fish and chips with Prime Minister David Cameron.

中国国家主席习近平在英国进行国事访问期间，于当地时间22日（星期三）与英国首相卡梅伦共赴当地一家传统酒吧，点了一杯啤酒，外加一份英国传统小吃炸鱼薯条。

The two world leaders, in suits but tieless, could be seen awkwardly sipping¹ their ales at The Plough, an establishment close to the British prime minister's residence of Chequers northwest of London.

"I dropped into The Plough at Cadsden for a pint² of IPA and some fish and chips with China's President Xi," Cameron tweeted afterwards, along with a picture of him talking to Xi in which hunting guns could be seen hanging on the bare-brick wall behind them.

The pub's landlord Steve Hollings told AFP that Cameron and Xi had chatted for around three-quarters of an hour and had been "extremely friendly".

They drank "traditional English bitter" and "traditional English fish and chips", he said proudly, adding: "I was highly delighted".

The pub traces its history back to the 16th century when it was a staging post for London coaches.

Its website said the pub "is often host to some very famous patrons" and asks visitors to "remember, they are here for the rest and relaxation³ too".
