Nell Gwynne Tavern

Nell Gwynne Tavern London’s hidden treasure, great selection of beers, yards from the Strand.
(758)

Built on the site of the Old Bull Inn, the Nell Gwynne Tavern was named after the infamous mistress of Charles II. Nell, born and raised in the locality at St Martin in the Fields, sold fruit in the nearby Covent Garden market before gaining fame as an actress on the Drury Lane stage. Samuel Pepys describes seeing “the mighty pretty Nell” on his way to the Strand in 1667. Nothing if not a den of iniquity, in 1897, William Terris, a well-known actor of the day, was murdered yards from the pub by a stage hand from the neighbouring Adelphi Theatre. While in the 60s the notorious Richardson Gang were reputed to have frequented The Nell.
