The Mitre

The Mitre is a Grade II listed public house at 24 Craven Terrace, Lancaster Gate, in the Bayswater area of the City of Westminster, London. It is a traditional Victorian-era London pub that has been part of the Young's Brewery estate. The building dates from the mid-19th century and retains many historic interior features, including traditional wooden bar furniture, original etched glass, and mosaic floors. Over time it has been adapted for modern use with an upstairs dining and function room and a downstairs speakeasy-style bar. As a pub, The Mitre serves seasonal British food, Sunday roasts, and drinks, and offers private hire. It also operates Old Mary's wine bar. Its location near Hyde Park and Paddington makes it a destination for both local residents and visitors to the area. The pub trades under the name The Mitre Hyde Park, reflecting its proximity to the park. The Mitre is not an independent business but a licensed premises within the Young's Brewery pub estate, a British pub company and brewer with a long history in London and southern England. As such, its operations, branding, and food and drink offer are aligned with Young's pub strategy, while the building itself is protected by its Grade II listing, which recognizes its special architectural and historic interest.

The Mitre is a Grade II listed public house at 24 Craven Terrace, Lancaster Gate, in the Bayswater area of the City of Westminster, London. The building was constructed in the mid-19th century, during the great expansion of London's pub stock that accompanied the city's rapid growth in the Victorian era. Its survival in largely original condition has earned it statutory protection: the Grade II listing recognizes its special architectural and historic interest. Historically, the pub has retained a number of period features. These include traditional wooden bar furniture, original etched glass, and mosaic floors, which together preserve the atmosphere of a classic Victorian London pub. In more recent times, the premises have been adapted to broaden their appeal. An upstairs dining and function room was added, providing space for meals and private events, and a downstairs speakeasy-style bar was also introduced. These changes reflect the wider evolution of the British pub sector, in which historic houses have been modernized to offer food, function space, and varied drinking environments while preserving their heritage character. The Mitre is part of the Young's Brewery estate. Young's is a long-established British brewer and pub operator with deep roots in London and southern England, and The Mitre operates within its managed or tenanted pub portfolio. The pub trades under the name The Mitre Hyde Park, emphasizing its location near Hyde Park and Paddington. Its offer includes seasonal British food, Sunday roasts, private hire, and Old Mary's wine bar. As a listed building within a larger pub estate, The Mitre represents the intersection of heritage preservation and modern hospitality that characterizes much of London's historic pub trade.
