NOTE:The name of this Victorian pub commemorates the opening of the nearby Viaduct over the Fleet valley. The large building dominates the corner of Giltspur Street and Newgate Street. However the inside seems strangely smaller, like the TARDIS in reverse. It has retained many of the original features from those days including etched glass and red lyncrusta paper on high ceilings. The pub was built on the site of the old Newgate prison and the cells still survive in the cellar of the pub. The Scottish barmaid will give you a guided tour of the cells, but you need to steer clear of lunchtimes and evenings to avoid disappointment. The pub serves an extensive range of beers, wines and spirits as well as food - so there should be something to please everyone.
