This Pub is Permanently Closed

Reported CLOSED July 2018. Following a long local battle which reached appeal, Westminster Council allowed change of use based on a profitability assessment made during the Covid 19 pandemic! At date of this entry the ground floor is being converted to a pharmacy and the remainder of the building will likely become residential units.

Previous description follows.

Corner pub site with some interesting historic interior features. Food menu veers towards burgers, steaks, and salads; Sunday roasts. See pub website for special offers.

As of mid-Feb 2018 the pub's four real ale handpumps have not been in use.

One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest

Listed status: Not listed

UPDATE 2021

Closed in 2018 and converted to a pharmacy/housing in 2021

The former description is shown below

A prominent corner-site Victorian pub which underwent a major refurbishment in 2005. The central serving area remains, albeit with changes for food service, although the Victorian counter survives. On the left-hand side (approached from the Chippenham Road entrance) there are some impressive reminders from Victorian days. The mosaic floor announces the former name of the pub and there are some mirror and floral tile strips on the left-hand wall. There is some fine mahogany wall panelling and also three stained glass panels, probably re-sited. The central one has a girl playing a lyre.

Update 2014: Refurbished and renamed the Squirrel, it has lost some of its historic fittings and the Victorian counter has been painted a pastel shade of grey.
