Bow Street Tavern is a historic five-floor pub at 37 Bow Street in Covent Garden. Its position opposite the Royal Opera House makes it a useful Theatreland meeting place, while a covered roof terrace, private dining room and karaoke space give each floor a different purpose.
The kitchen takes traditional pub food and adds a contemporary touch. Cyder battered fish and chips, burgers and bangers with mash sit beside snacks and small plates such as pulled beef tacos, chorizo bites and sharing nachos.
Sunday brings a dedicated roast menu, and sandwiches or lighter plates suit a quicker lunch before a performance. Vegetarian and plant based dishes appear throughout the selection, allowing a group to combine familiar classics with meat free choices and several sides.
Young’s ales, guest beer, wine, spirits and seasonal spritzes support the food offer from late morning into the evening. The variety of rooms makes the tavern equally practical for a casual pint, a complete pub meal, a private celebration or drinks overlooking Covent Garden from the terrace.
Address: 37 Bow Street, Covent Garden, London WC2E 7AU, England
