Fitzroy Tavern

The building started life as a coffee house in 1883 and became a pub in 1887. A fantastic transformation by Sam Smith's in which a large island bar serves six separate drinking areas with screens, some connected internally. There is a profusion of etched glass, mirrors, tiles and wood panelling. The pub has a distinctly bohemian history from the 1920s, frequented by eminent literary figures, artists, musicians, politicians and many other notables. More than just a London public house. Won the CAMRA Pub Design Award for refurbishment in 2017. Real ale and meals.
