Pubs
As Londoners, at Cozee we are deeply attached to our weekly attendance to our local pub. Why should you be different in the place where you are going to live? That is why we have been testing and reviewing all the pubs in Portland Street. As a matter of fact, we didn’t… But we would have loved to. Here is then the list of the greatest pubs of Portland Street
| Pub name Name | Address | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Ain’t Nothin’ But… | 20 Kingly Street London W1B 5PZ | Small blues bar with seating towards the rear and a small stage where up and coming blues bands play. Gigs are on every day. The walls are decorated with blues memorabilia – such as photographers of blues musicians, record covers, and posters of blues concerts. Wednesday to Saturday admission charges may apply. Can be very busy when bands are playing, and entrance is restricted by fire regulations. The venue does not take bookings. Real ale is from the Adnams range and there may be more on offer than the two indicated here. |
| Blue Posts | 18 Kingly Street London W1B 5QE | Cosy corner pub with attractive windows and panelling within. Licensed as the Two Blue Posts in 1728, the present pub was built in 1892 at a cost of £4,000. The blue posts were the boundary-markers of Soho Fields, the sixteenth century royal hunting grounds. Or alternatively, the name is thought to refer to the blue bollards that once marked the “taxi-ranks” of sedan chairs, one of which is illustrated on the pub sign. |
| Clachan | 34 Kingly Street London W1B 5QH | First licensed in 1750, this grade II listed pub was rebuilt in 1898 and still retains many original fittings such as engraved glasswork, mirrors, servery mahogany, and ceiling Lincrusta panels. Called the Bricklayers Arms until 1887 and once owned by the family-run Liberty department store which had plans to use it as a storehouse but then sold it off. The ground floor bar is split level with a further room upstairs doubling as a restaurant and function room. Note the unusual raised snug at the rear with skylight and rails. Clachan is a Scottish word for hamlet but it is not known what the connection was; mosaics at the entrances spell out the pub name. |
| Glassblower | 42 Glasshouse Street London W1B 5JY | Once a workhouse, this pub consists of a wedge-shaped room with the bar against the far wall. There is a large lantern hanging from the centre of the beamed ceiling, and high tables and chairs. The first floor dining area, with its own bar, can be hired for functions. The large food menu includes kids menus, Sunday roasts, veggie options, sandwiches and toasties. Post-Covid the ale handpumps have reduced to two. |
| Leicester Arms | 44 Glasshouse Street London W1B 5DP | Single lounge bar with a first floor restaurant used as a function room in the evenings; handy for shopping in nearby Regent Street. First licensed in 1725 as the Harp, it was rebuilt in 1892 at a cost of £5,572. It later became the Harp & Crown and the Cambrian Stores until 1927, when the name was transferred from the Leicester Lounge in New Coventry Street. Wide food menu including Sunday roasts and sharing platters. |
| Wigmore | 15 Langham Place London W1B 3DE | Formerly a bank, now part of – but separate from – the 5-star Langham Hotel. Very up-market and well-staffed, and with a 12 1/2% discretionary service charge. |
