More information on Griffin
The Griffin, then known as the King's Arms, was built in 1903 in anticipation of trade from the King's Theatre which was about to open opposite it. The original art nouveau detailing by William Reid has stood the dual tests of time and fickle design trends. There are two adjoining lounge bar, the Griffinette, and the Griffiny, each with a subtly different atmosphere. Bar food is plain but good here with lunch offers and daily vegetarian specials.
