This Pub is Temporarily Closed

As at 1 July 2025, leasehold owned by Inda Pubs. Assumed now CLOSED for a three-month refurb, to reopen end Sept 2025 when contact details & ownership will be updated. Previous description follows.

Known locally as "the Cod", popular with tourists and recommended in the Sloane Ranger Handbook. High ceilinged wood-panelled bar with the old cocktail bar now turned into a restaurant. Licensed in 1830 as a beer house and rebuilt in the 1860s because of railway tunnelling between South Kensington and Sloane Square. Named after the naval officer who captained the 98 gun ‘Orion’ at the Battle of Trafalgar and later, as Vice-Admiral of the Blue, led the fleet which defeated the Turks at Navarino in 1827.

Listed in the Estrella Damm top 100 gastropub awards 2022.
