Windsor Castle pub

Categories: Commerce, Food & Drink

Restored in 1990. Described by Time Out as "this absurd pub, apparently popular with every minor celebrity you can think of".

August 2016: Londonist informs that the pub is about to close and has "been acquired by a Saudi-based property company who want to turn the block into luxury flats." Sigh.
