Deep wood-panelled bar with its rear set out as a dining area. At the front, the former bay windowed off licence has been converted into a small snug area. Named the Goat Tavern by 1702, it was previously a coffee house. The present building dates from 1879 and is popular with tourists and shoppers.

This pub was a favourite haunt of acid-bath murderer John Haigh in the 1940s
