Following a period of closure, this site was taken over by The Public House Group and reopened in May 2024, now named The Hero. The four-storey space comprises a pub on the ground floor also serving food, a more formal grill room on the first floor, a cocktail bar and a top-floor private events area with its own bar.

The ground-floor pub has a zinc-­topped bar with bronze-effect pumps and taps but with all beers advertised via chalk­boards; a fire­place, and a de-silvered mir­ror with the daily food spe­cials. It has been described as "evoking a steampunk tavern style of old London town in the 1830s that never truly existed until now"! The food offering includes pub favourites but also oysters and quail for those on more relaxed budgets. The venue is card-only.

When the pub opened three ales were on offer but recent feedbacks suggest the venue is no longer selling cask ale, or only intermittently. Further updates welcome.

The operator Public House Group also runs the highly-successful Pelican pub in Notting Hill. It is understood that the Public House Group is backed, in part, by investment management firm BNP Capital.
