The castle ec1, Farringdon is an 18th century traditional boozer with a niche contemporary offer.
One day the castle ec1 was visited by a certain King George who had stopped off to enjoy a spot of cock-fighting [back in the day]. But when the good king arrived at the castle ec1 he realised he had no dosh. So, in order to have a bit of a flutter he issued the landlord with a Pawnbrokers Licence, thus pawning his expensive gold pocket watch in return for some gambling spends. The Pawnbroker's Licence is still in existence today; the only one in possession by a pub-quite a talking point among tourist folk! However, the castle ec1 would like to inform its customers, animal rights activists and the general public that we do not, in any shape or form, condone cock-fighting at these premises!
Located opposite Farringdon tube, while pavement drinking in the summer sun proves popular, our comfy lounge style pub is just that to shelter from the winter chill.
The castle ec1 loves... Great pub grub. Uber-chilled world beers. Homemade Bloody Marys. Cool music. Lounging. Vice magazine. Newspapers. Coffee…
