The Trafalgar Tavern is a historic Grade I-listed Victorian pub in Greenwich, London, located on the River Thames at Park Row, SE10 9NW. Opened in 1837 and designed by architect Joseph Kay on the site of the earlier Old George Tavern, it features elegant Georgian bow windows, cast-iron balconies, and a riverside terrace.
 Named after Admiral Nelson’s 1805 Battle of Trafalgar victory, the tavern hosted famous “whitebait dinners” for politicians like William Gladstone and Benjamin Disraeli in the 19th century. Charles Dickens featured it in Our Mutual Friend as a wedding breakfast venue, and its opulent Regency-style interior preserves maritime artifacts, naval paintings, and a statue of Nelson outside.
 
Interesting facts...
How it came to be.
In 1830, the Old George Tavern’s owner hired architect Joseph Kay to expand the site, but Kay sabotaged the planning application to seize the lucrative riverside location himself. He demolished the original pub and built the current Regency-style tavern, opening in 1837 and transforming it into a fashionable venue.
