Introduction
The Old Doctor Butler's Head, named after the court physician to James I, is a traditional pub in the heart of the City with a rich history and reputation for warm hospitality spanning four centuries.
The pub was established in 1610 but had to be rebuilt after the Great Fire of 1666. It is the last of a number of taverns named after Dr Butler who specialised in bizarre 'curesâ? for nervous disorders, including dropping patients through a trapdoor in London Bridge and plunging plague victims into cold water.
A more enjoyable experience awaits visitors today. The bar, restaurant and function room offer a wide choice of traditional English food, cask ales, international lagers and wines in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
The pub has Sky TV with several screens showing most sports and has an impressive gallery of vintage Spitfire advertisements.
The Old Doctor Butler's Head features in a number of food, drink and tourist guides and is a short walk from the Guildhall, the Bank of England and the Stock Exchange.
Good pub food and sandwiches are available in the bar while the 35-seat first floor restaurant, The Chop House, offers a menu of traditional English meals, including the pub's signature dish, traditional steak and kidney pudding.
As well as English favourites, The Chop House has a range of contemporary dishes, freshly-prepared on the premises, using the finest seasonal produce whenever possible, including vegetarian options and daily specials.
There is a fine selection of ports and cognacs and carefully-chosen wines from independent producers from both the Old and New Worlds.
The pub also offers Champagne and sparkling wine and a good choice of wine by the glass.
