Just off Dorset Square, re-opened in 2014 and reverting to one of its former names, this pub was refurbished again in 2019 and smartened up. There is a gastro feel, but beer is not neglected. The kitchen offers a modern all-day pub menu which includes pub favourites.

Classic afternoon tea is on offer but must be pre-booked, see venue website.

Memorabilia relating to the Balcombe Street Siege in December 1975 unfortunately vanished in the refurb.

Historic Interest

Lord’s Old Ground occupied this site during 1787–1811.

Information for this venue is provided by the West London Branch of CAMRA
