Bow Street Tavern, London

After a change in operator, and an extensive refurbishment, the pub has a varied 'menu' of themes harking back to an earlier era with the Inspectors Office and the Fielding Room giving a Victorian police / Bow Street Runners and gas-lit feel; and it is indeed now very close to the new Bow Street Police Museum. Visitors to the museum may claim a discount in this pub on production of their museum ticket.

There's a comfortable 'nook' dedicated to the British monarchy, a Gin terrace, and more. The walls are painted a dark terracotta, and with dark wood panelling, mirrors, and are hung with a range of movie (Hitchcock's Frenzy of course), theatre, opera, police, and beer themes, including at least two photos from CAMRA's Covent Garden Beer Festival in 1975. A collection of Toby jugs line the top of the back bar fitting.

As well as draught beer a wide range of gins is available. There is also a range of adult softs and low alcohol beer options. The food offering includes pub classics, Sunday roasts, and sandwiches; there are also choices for vegetarians and vegans. Note that the food hours given may vary depending on staff availability, check with venue website.
