Description
The Marlborough Head is a real British pub in the heart of London’s Theatreland, just off Drury Lane and a short stroll from Covent Garden. Whether you’re heading to a show, exploring the markets or simply looking for a proper pint, this is the perfect place to stop.
Behind the bar you’ll find a wide choice of draught beers, cask ales, wines and spirits – everything you’d expect from a traditional British pub.
Our menu celebrates proper pub classics, from fish & chips and hearty pies to comforting sharers and Sunday roasts, all designed to pair perfectly with a drink in hand.
With Covent Garden Market, the Royal Opera House and London’s West End theatres all nearby, The Marlborough Head makes for an ideal pre-theatre dinner, post-show pint or relaxed meal with friends and family.
Cold beers, warm food and great hospitality await – and yes, we’re dog friendly too.
