Nestled in the heart of Theatreland, spans five floors of history and charm.
Steeped in connections to the legendary Bow Street Runners, London’s first police force, this iconic venue, dating back to 1763, offers the perfect setting for your next celebration. Whether it’s enjoying summer vibes on the roof terrace, relaxing in cosy nooks in the main bar, or hosting private events, we have something for everyone. Indulge in a menu that brings together the best of pub classics, from golden, crispy fish & chips to irresistible sharing platters and everything in between.
With summer on the horizon, explore our quirky outdoor spaces. Discover your new year-round haven in Covent Garden – the roof terrace on the top floor offers stunning views of the West End while providing a serene escape, making it the ideal spot for golden hour gatherings, private parties, or simply sipping cocktails in the sunshine. On the first floor, the vibrant and fully covered terrace is perfect for after-work drinks, with heating for those cooler evenings, right in the heart of central London.
