Three Tuns

The Three Tuns on Portman Mews South in Marylebone has stood at this location since at least 1841, when 18 pubs of that name were present in London. The majority of the other Three Tuns establishments have since disappeared, although it still continues to be a popular pub name across England. The term ‘tun’ originates from old English, signifying a “brewing vat” or “cask”. This particular Three Tuns, along with the two adjacent buildings, represent the final remnants of the historic Portman Mews South. Numerous structures in the vicinity suffered severe damage during World War II, making this pub and its surroundings a poignant link to the past. The establishment prides itself on being dog-friendly, welcoming furry companions to enjoy the traditional ambience and hospitality.
