About the Pub
The present-day clientele is a mix of locals, tourists, after-work drinkers and, of course, theatregoers (who need to cross the road, since the tunnel cannot be found!); there is an interval drinks service available for the latter. The first floor offers extra seating and can be hired as a function room. If you are lucky, you may be able to bag the ground-floor bow window seats overlooking Catherine Street.
Please note: no sports colours or large groups encouraged - it's a very small pub!
Historic Interest
The pub featured in Alfred Hitchcock’s 1972 film “Frenzy”, along with evocative scenes of the old Covent Garden fruit & veg market which moved a couple of years later.
