The Dirty Duck, Grade II listed pub in Stratford-upon-Avon, England.
The Dirty Duck features wooden beams, traditional furnishings, and a waterside terrace that extends along the banks of River Avon.
Originally established in 1738 as the Black Swan, this pub has served generations of patrons while maintaining its original architectural elements.
The establishment has become the primary gathering spot for Royal Shakespeare Company actors and theater audiences after evening performances.
The pub operates daily from noon until late, offering a seasonal menu with traditional British dishes and a selection of local ales.
The building maintains two signs, displaying both its official name 'The Black Swan' and its popular nickname 'The Dirty Duck'.
