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

Large corner establishment with two function rooms. It was originally the Kings Head when licensed in 1710 and then the King John’s Head from 1843 until rebuilt by its landlord, Frederick Shelley in 1870 at a cost of £5,490. Unusually, the pub sign shows two kings, Charles II and George II, hedging bets about the origins of the pub name!

On the ground floor there are two counters with duplicated ale pumps, and the upstairs and downstairs bars usually have a couple of cask ales each.

Food options include click-and-collect, and takeaway.
