About
In the heart of Bristol city centre.
The Shakespeare Tavern, Prince Street, the longest serving ale house in Bristol, derives its name from the Theatre Royal in nearby King Street. Prince Street itself is named after Prince George of Denmark, consort of Queen Anne. The original Georgian mansion was a merchant house designed by architect John Strachan in 1725. In 1777 the Shakespeare Tavern finally became a dockside inn supplying refreshment for ship workers and warehousemen. It’s longest serving licensee was William Allen circa 1934, retired 1976.
