Shakespeare Public House, Bristol, Georgian pub in Bristol, England
The Shakespeare Public House features limestone ashlar walls, brick chimneys, and pantile roofing across its three-story Georgian structure in Prince Street.
Built in 1725 by architect John Strahan, the structure began as two connected Georgian houses before its conversion into a pub in 1777.
Named after its proximity to Theatre Royal, this Grade II* listed building stands as a testament to Bristol's maritime and theatrical connections.
The pub maintains its original features, including wooden beams, period furnishings, and a curved mahogany staircase in the entrance hall.
The building's exterior displays a carved pediment featuring two falcons, commissioned by original owner John Hobbs in the early 18th century.
