Opening hours

This landmark 1864 rebuild of the 1831 Blue Coat Boy was named after the recently-deceased Prince Consort; Grade II listed and one of very few Victorian buildings left on a street now largely modern glass and concrete. It has a sprawling ground floor bar with large ornate windows, a high ceiling and an intimate dining room down to the right; upstairs past framed photographs of prime ministers is a sumptuous carvery restaurant. The food offering includes Sunday roasts. Note that the licence permits sale of alcohol from 10am Monday to Saturday and from noon on Sundays.
