Real ale discount scheme

Comfortable and smart pub frequented by tourists and shoppers from the adjacent Carnaby Street. Rebuilt in 1927, it was first licensed in 1743 to John Shakespeare, a distant relative of the bard. There is often an unusual cask ale on offer.

The food menu includes Sunday roasts.

Note that as is very usual in Westminster, alcohol may not be served before 10am, or noon on Sunday.

NB this pub is more easily found in Carnaby Street than Great Marlborough Street!

Information for this venue is provided by the West London Branch of CAMRA
