The Castle really accommodated us even when our plans changed and we were faced with needing a smaller space. They were really helpful and accessible.

We had such a great time. The venue was perfect for my birthday. The food was good, the staff were very attentive and the the venue was easily accessible.


About The Castle

The understated appeal of The Castle conceals a regal past that's the stuff of pub legend. This refreshingly down-to-earth Farringdon public house was once frequented by King George IV, who was tempted in by a spot of cockfighting. Arriving without money, he promptly issued the pub with a pawnbroker's license and handed over his gold watch to fund a flutter. Today, you'll be relieved to hear, The Castle is favoured for its sublime selection of beers, tasty food, great team, two stunning floors with an upstairs function room to hire, rather than feuding poultry
