EDITORS COMMENTS
The Spaniards Inn, nestled in the heart of Hampstead Heath in London, is a historic watering hole steeped in rich history and intrigue. Established in the late 16th century, this charming pub has been a beloved refuge for weary travelers and famous figures alike for centuries. The Spaniards Inn's storied past includes tales of notorious outlaws such as Dick Turpin, who reportedly used the inn as a hideout during his criminal exploits. However, it is perhaps most famously connected to Charles Dickens, who immortalised the pub in his Pickwick Papers. The pub's name is said to have originated from the Spanish ambassadors who visited England during the late 16th century and stopped at the inn for refreshment. Over the centuries, the inn has undergone various transformations, but its rustic charm and historic significance have remained intact. The Spaniards Inn offers a warm and inviting atmosphere, with open fires burning in the winter months and a beautiful garden overlooking the heath. The menu features hearty British pub fare, including traditional fish and chips, shepherd's pie, and roast beef. The inn's selection of local and international beers, wines, and spirits is sure to please even the most discerning palate. A visit to The Spaniards Inn is not just a chance to enjoy a delicious meal and a refreshing drink, but also a step back in time to an era of adventure, intrigue, and classic British hospitality. Whether you're a history buff, a foodie, or simply looking for a cozy place to unwind, The Spaniards Inn is a must-visit destination in London.
