The Castle Farringdon

Description

Bringing a touch of the traditional to London’s upbeat Farringdon district, The Castle stands proudly within City of London’s square mile, making it perfect for after-work drinks, catch-ups with friends or a sociable bite to eat. 

Set in a stunning Grade II listed building, the pub has plenty of history, which can be felt in its traditional interiors – think exposed brickwork and wood panelling. There’s also an outdoor space out the front for sunnier days. 

The Castle holds a regular quiz night and there’s also a bookable space if you’re planning an event or gathering. 

Make sure you pop in next time you’re in the area.
