1855Open since 1855. That's 171 years.
Our take
Bill Parsons, a former London bobby, opened the Parsons Bridge Hotel here in 1855, and the pub says it has served on this spot ever since, give or take Prohibition. Today the kitchen makes its own pasta, sausages and bread from two sourdough starters named Lucille and Sandy, keeps bees for the honey in its desserts and cocktails, and does not own a microwave. Minors are welcome at every table.
