Fox and Anchor, Victorian pub and Grade II listed building in Farringdon, London, England
Fox and Anchor is a Victorian-style pub with Grade II listed status in Farringdon, offering rooms upstairs and food service throughout the day. The building features Art Nouveau tiles on its exterior and dark wooden paneling inside.
The building was constructed during the Victorian era and later received Grade II listing for its architectural features. It was designed by architect Latham Withall and decorated with Art Nouveau elements that reflected design trends of that period.
The pub has long attracted early morning traders from nearby Smithfield Market, who gather for traditional English breakfast as part of their daily routine. This connection to local commerce shapes the character of the place and how people use it.
The pub is open daily and serves food throughout its operating hours from morning to evening. Visitors should arrive early if seeking a quieter experience, as it is popular with market traders during breakfast hours.
The decorative tiles on the exterior were created by an artist who also worked on the food hall of a prominent London department store. This artistic touch gives the pub an unexpected connection to fine decorative craftsmanship.
