This pub lies on a prime site on the main artery leading to Portobello Road market. This is probably the oldest pub in the area and was put up by William Chadwick, the developer chosen by the Ladbroke family; typically for the era he was also the first licensee. A mid-2014 refurbishment opened up the bar area but left the basic U-shape intact, with banquettes at the front and the amazingly secluded patio garden area at the back. The painted bow-window at the northern end has seen better days but still merits study. The (locally) famous Gate Theatre, separately-run, is upstairs. Two cask ales reported plus up to ten rotating craft keg beers. The food menu includes pub favourites and Sunday roasts; a takeaway option is available.
This Pub serves no changing beers and 2 regular beers.
