Accessibility Guide for Crown & Anchor

Welcome

The Crown & Anchor is a charmingly traditional style British pub spread over two floors. Downstairs is a great place to meet for a drink or a bite to eat with friends or colleagues, or to rest your feet after a hard days shopping! Being a stone’s throw from most major West End shows, means we are perfect for a pre or post-theatre meal too with our kitchen serving a fantastic selection of traditional homemade pub food. We offer an exciting mix of continental lagers, traditional cask conditioned British ales, good wine and an enviable list of London gins. Upstairs is perfect for larger groups of diners or drinkers and offers a more relaxed atmosphere, with an extra bar opening during the evening.
