Name: Captains Cabin Age: Location: 4-7 Norris Street, London Information: The present “Captain’s Cabin” is on the site of an 18th century coaching inn named the “Cock Tavern”. It later became known as the “Punch House” when the proprietors began to specialise in old English punch. The present name of the pub is derived from the use of nautical names for different areas of the house over years gone by i.e. The Mess Deck, Quarter Deck, Crows Nest, Fo’Castle and the Captain’s Cabin itself. The pub became so popular that the entire house became known as the “Captain’s Cabin”.
