Historic Pub in Farringdon

If you’re a big fan of tucking into great food & drinks in a traditional London pub with a past (that makes epic cocktails too) then you’ve found your mecca.   

Our historic beauty of a pub (with six stylish rooms) is a well-known hangout for those who love great beer and regularly changing guest ales. Oh, and we’re pretty famous for our gut-busting City Boy Breakfasts (with the obligatory pint of Guinness) and insanely good steaks to boot. From hefty-hunks of Cote de Boeuf, to lamb shanks and venison haunch – you’re sure of a bloody good feed when you’re in town.

Six (not-so) secret bedrooms are squirrelled away above the pub. A handful of freestanding roll-top tubs, decent snacks & posh coffee machines (oh, and a private terrace too) await you up the curling staircase – when you can finally drag yourself away from the pub.

Our Rooms

If you’re looking for the best place to stay in Farringdon, you’ve found it. Six cool rooms sit atop the pub, blessed with all the home comforts you might expect (plus some you mightn’t)

Food & Drink

You’ll love our food. Classic pub faves, steaks (from the rather famous Godfrey’s butchers), specials that change with the weather (which is to say, very often) and those all-guns-blazing Sunday roasts. Lovely stuff.
