The Cross Keys, Georgian pub in Chelsea, England
The Cross Keys features exposed brick walls, wooden shutters, and a central skylight that illuminates the dining and drinking spaces through mirrored walls.
Built in 1708, The Cross Keys holds the distinction of being Chelsea's oldest pub, with a period of closure in 2012 before reopening after community intervention.
Turner, Whistler, Sargent, Agatha Christie, Dylan Thomas, Bob Marley, and The Rolling Stones members have frequented this London establishment over generations.
Located at 1 Lawrence Street, the pub operates from noon to 11 PM weekdays, serving Butcombe ales and traditional British meals during lunch and dinner.
In 1920, the pub became the site of an unsolved murder case when landlady Frances Buxton was discovered beneath sawdust in the cellar.
