Coachmakers Arms, Hammersmith

The Coachmakers Arms is a former pub at 135 King Street, Hammersmith, London.

History

It was built before 1874,[1] and was a Charrington Brewery pub, as can be seen by "CHARRINGTON'S ENTIRE" in a large tiled panel the breadth of the pub, now painted over. It was extended into the shop next door by Charrington themselves.[2]

In the 1980s, it had become the Penny Farthing, and by 2001 was a predominantly gay venue with music and cabaret at the weekends.[3][4] This was one of several renamings before it closed in 2002 and became Autumn House, and then a Chinese restaurant, Gourmet Buffet, and Buddha Kitchen.[5][6][2][4] It was to have become Tiger Bills by Christmas 2015.[2]
