Fitzroy Tavern

The Fitzroy Tavern is a pub situated at 16 Charlotte Street in the Fitzrovia district of central London, England. It is currently owned by the Sam Smith's brewery. It became famous (or arguably, infamous) during a period spanning the 1920s to the mid 1950s as a meeting place for many of London's artists, intellectuals and bohemians such as Dylan Thomas, Augustus John, and George Orwell. It is named either directly or indirectly for the Fitzroy family, Dukes of Grafton, who owned much of the land on which Fitzrovia was built.
