About The Hen & Chickens Theatre Pub

A pub with a colourful interior and a small independent theatre upstairs, running for more than three decades.

Beneath a well-kept, colourful interior, The Hen & Chickens hides upstairs one of London's longest-running fringe theatres, where small-scale plays and one-person shows premiere most nights. The ground floor works as a neighbourhood pub with pavement seating.

On tap

Cask ales and craft beer, served in a quiet atmosphere before the show.

Food

A short pub menu, built for a light dinner before heading up to the theatre.
