Disover The Real London
Fitzroy Tavern
The Fitzroy Tavern, built in 1897, is the spiritual heart of Fitzrovia lying bang in the middle of trendy Charlotte Street. This unpretentious boozer attracts a lively crowd drawn in no doubt by its very competitively priced Sam Smiths bitter.
The pub's heyday was in the 1940s when it was home to a very bohemian and louche crowd which included poet and professional drinker Dylan Thomas, artists Augustus John and Nina Hamnett and hangman Albert Pierrepoint.
Goodge Street and Tottenham Court Road.
10, 14, 24, 29, 73, 134 and 390 all pass along Tottenham Court Road.
Charlotte Street is named after George III's wife Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz.
