Swiss Cottage is not just a pub, or a building: it is a place. It is sign-posted, map-identified, bonafide quarter of London. It has shops and businesses that carry its prestigious title proudly in their addresses. It has its own Underground station. It has bars, clubs, and restaurants, favored by the trendy north London set, who spend their evenings enjoying the lively atmosphere it offers. It has its own cinema. It has its own residences, apartments and houses that allow easy access to the roads. And of course it has Ye Olde Swiss Cottage, the spacious and welcoming hostelry at the historic and geographical core of its community.

Local History

A neighbour to St. John’s Wood, Swiss Cottage lies just to the North of Regent’s Park and is part of the Borough of Camden. In 1826, Sir Henry Samuel Eyre of the Eyre Estate launched a turnpike trust to help pay for the construction of the Finchley Road from Regent’s Park to Ballard’s Lane, one of the most imposing highways of its time. One of the first buildings by the Junction Road Toll Gate was a Swiss-style tavern which later became a bus terminus and in 1868, a station on the Metropolitan underground line. Swiss Cottage developed rapidly after this point.
