About King & Queen
Traditional pub with high ceilings and regular live folk music, for cask ales and lunchtime food.
This imposing Grade II-listed red brick Edwardian Gothic building was first licensed in 1767. It is a free house now but the exterior still displays a 1980s circular Watney's sign.
The spacious ground floor bar doubles as a portrait gallery of British royalty, playing cards and sports teams (especially rugby), whilst the function room upstairs houses an impressive collection of brewery-themed mirrors and hosts the regular folk club events.
Guest beers are often from Marston's, including other breweries within the group, or Sambrook's. The pub also offers a fine selection of whiskies.
Please note that if there is no afternoon football game on television on a Sunday, the pub may not open until 7pm. It is closed on all Bank Holidays.

Standard pub, small. NO food, despite pics from other reviews. Small beer menu, but Pilsner was great.

A lovely traditional Victorian London pub, sitting on the corner of Cleveland and Foley streets. Quiet when I visited but a very welcoming feeling about the place. Lovely staff and a great pint of beer. Pictures of a few king and Queeny types above the bar. Plenty of cask and keg on offer. A good place to pop for a pint.

Title: Unfair Treatment at King and Queen: Sober Yet Refused Entry I recently had a highly disappointing experience at King and Queen. Upon arriving, I was shocked when the bouncer refused me entry, claiming I appeared intoxicated. As someone who is completely teetotal, this accusation was both baseless and offensive. I approached the establishment looking forward to a great evening, only to be met with an unjust and humiliating response from the staff.
