The Wellington - Wellington Street, London - pub sign

Continuing on the way to the Strand up Wellington Street, past the theatre showing The Lion King at the Lyceum.

To the left of the Lyceum is a pub called The Wellington.

Near the Strand.

The Wellington

It is now a Nicholson's pub.

The pub dates from 1903 and is well known for featuring an attractive neo-gothic exterior. We retain many lovely original features such as our long wooden bar. We are of course, named after Arthur Wellesley, Duke of Wellington, whose historic victory over Napoleon in 1815 ended the Napoleonic Wars. We sit next to Covent Garden, a name derived from the 'Convent Garden' which belonged to Westminster Abbey.
