This Pub is Closed Long Term

CLOSED. Self-declared by landlord closed in mid-April 2025, "following an incredibly tough three year struggle".

Previous description follows:

Following a long period of closure this venue reopened in mid-December 2021. It's a large single bar with raised seating by the windows, reverting to its original name after a spell as the Frigate & Firkin. There is some bench/table seating (with umbrellas) outside in the occasionally busy Blythe Road, and the former magisterial headquarters of the Post Office Savings Bank looms above you. It's still the local Delivery Office of the Royal Mail, so with some main servicing access into Olympia itself the road does see some heavy vehicle traffic. Having said that it's a mixed local worker (blue and white collar) pub on an early weekday evening.

As at date of this entry the pub serves no cask ale and it is thought no food is being served.

The pub has an active Facebook page, largely describing various sporting events being shown.

Historic Interest

First licensed in 1881 and named after Benjamin Disraeli, Lord Beaconsfield. The present pub dates from 1900, when it was rebuilt by the Lacon Brewery at a cost of £6,286. It was the first in the area to be lit by electricity, installation of which cost £125!
