About the Pub

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. 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. There are also choices for vegetarians and vegans. Note that the food hours given may vary in future depending on staff availability, check with venue website.

Historic Interest

The interior of the pub featured in Alfred Hitchcock’s 1972 film “Frenzy”. On the site of a former Bow Street Runners' early police station and opposite the Royal Opera House, this former Meux's Brewery Co Ltd pub was rebuilt in 1897 and again in 1930.
