Bars in the city of of London, in the hours after work, are far from quiet.
A suburban or village pub may be different. You get to know which one in your local area suits your needs. e.g. I could point you to a local pub with craft beer and a quiet cosy corner, and suggest to avoid the one with the loud sports TV always on.
In the actual City area, with the tall buildings, the quiet kind will be nearly impossible to find at 6pm on a Friday.
