The Dog and Duck Soho is a historic Nicholson’s pub at the corner of Bateman Street and Frith Street. A pub has occupied the site since 1734, while the present Grade II listed building was completed in 1897 and remains one of the neighbourhood’s most recognisable traditional interiors.
Glazed tiles, mahogany panelling, decorative mirrors and original details create a richly preserved Victorian atmosphere. George Orwell, John Constable and Dante Gabriel Rossetti are among the notable figures associated with the pub during its long history.
Traditional British pub food centres on handmade pies, fish and chips, sausage with mash and other substantial classics. Sunday roasts are served with roast potatoes, vegetables, Yorkshire pudding and gravy, while vegetarian and vegan choices extend the selection.
Cask ales are an important part of the drinks offering, supported by craft beer, cider, gin, whisky and wine. Pre theatre dining and group bookings make the pub convenient for West End visitors, while its distinctive interior gives even a casual drink a strong sense of Soho history.
Address: 18 Bateman Street, Soho, London W1D 3AJ, United Kingdom
