Operator: Nicholson's (Mitchells & Butlers)
4 Dover Street, Mayfair, London, W1S 4LB (View on Google Map)

Licensed in 1724 as the Coach & Horses and rebuilt in 1892 and 1953. The pub website references the Duke of Clarence who became King William IV in 1830, though the sign outside shows a later Duke the firstborn son of the future Edward VII, Albert Victor who died in his twenties and hence did not succeed his father. The pub's smallish frontage belies a much larger area extending back. It has a very convivial atmosphere after its refurbishment in 2012, with a pleasant quieter upstairs bar. Nicholson's often have an unusual beer or two here. The pub is located very close to the famous Ritz hotel in Piccadilly.

This is one of many London pubs that has reduced its beer range post-pandemic. Two ciders were on handpump in Aug 23 - Sandford Devon Mist and Old Rosie. Several other beers were "coming soon".

Food options include takeaway and delivery as well as eating in the pub.
