Improve This Listing

After a period as the Chelsea Pig followed by a brief closure, this venue reopened in May 2024 under one of its old names, The Pig's Ear. It's operated by the Gladwin brothers who are also behind restaurants like Rabbit in Chelsea and Sussex in Soho. This is their first proper pub and they have said it is "celebrating all that is great about British seasonal produce" but also keeping it as a "proper pub".

Further updates awaited.

Historic Interest

The pub dates back to the late 17th century when it was named the Black Lion. Peninsular War hero John Moore "quaffed the unadulterated beverage of malt and hops" here. By 1820 it boasted a bowling green and a tea garden. The present pub was rebuilt in 1892.

Information for this venue is provided by the West London Branch of CAMRA
