Note restricted opening hours; Kitchen closed as of 30 October 2024.

Historic Interest

Under its previous name, the Coleherne pub was popular with gay men throughout the post-war period. It is perhaps best known from the decade of the 1970s when the pub was run as a "leather bar" with blacked-out windows, and patronised amongst others by lead singer of rock band Queen, Freddie Mercury. Regrettably three separate serial killers also used the pub as a pickup point for their intended victims; the most well-known being Colin Ireland, also referred to as The Gay Slayer who murdered five victims he met at the pub.

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