Covent Garden's prized Proper Pub
Nestled in the heart of Theatreland sits the historical watering hole of the legendary Bow Street Runners- London’s first police force.
Spanning five floors of history and charm, our iconic venue dating back to 1763 offers the perfect setting for your next celebration.
Our Rooftop Bar & Terrace boasts unbeatable West End views, complete with awnings and heaters so you can sip on your ‘usual’ in rain, or shine. Our Karaoke Bar sits on the fourth floor, and is the perfect lively nightcap to your next outing in Covent Garden. The Constabulary on the second floor flaunts a private, speakeasy-style refuge: lending itself perfectly to dining experiences, meetings, or a private knees-up with your guests. The Gin Bar & Terrace is our fan-favourite, lively extension of the main pub downstairs, perfect for everything from casual catch-ups to unmissable group celebrations.
Whether it’s a post-work pint in the Main Bar, or hosting your own in one of our stunning private spaces, we have something for everyone. Have a peek at our party packages and stunning private spaces Here
Get stuck in to belt-loosening pub classics, from golden, crispy Fish & Chips to irresistible sharing platters and everything in between…
Of course, not forgetting the best Sunday roast in Covent Garden.

Our Spritz menu has officially entered the chat (and yes, it’s the drink of the season), so grab a glass, kick back, and let the city buzz beneath you while you sip in style. Whether you’re topping up your tan or just here for the people-watching with a twist, this is your go-to spot for sun-soaked mischief and seriously good times.
