Welcome to The OC

The Old Crown is a unique building located on the corner of Museum Street and New Oxford Street. The pub dates back to 1851 years and has a character all of its own. Two of the three floors are open to the public at all times, while all 3 have a different vibe to each of them. We manage to offer a whimsical escape from the busy streets that surround and come once you come in you get the impression it has offered this for quite some time.

​

You can find reference to The Old Crown in Hogarth's famous Beer Street & Gin Lane from 1751. The spire of St George's church is just on the opposite side of the street  - so it is fair to say we have some heritage when it comes to serving a libation or two.
