Brixham, Devon. Dating back to 1623, it is said that when William of Orange landing in Brixham in 1688 he stopped here for a drink before marching his 15,000 troops towards London to force the abdication of James II and become William III (known as the "Glorious Revolution"). The interior is a single long narrow room with a small bar in the back right corner and is decorated with pictures of fishing trawlers, reflecting the pub's connection to Brixham's fishing industry (we had some awesome fresh seafood while in town!). A sign on the wall also notes that in the past ladies danced on the tables, and that there are stiletto heel marks left as proof.

One thing I would like to mention is that in many pub/restaurant toilets on the Devon coast they play a recorded version of a faux shipping forecast that is just hilarious. If you ever visit give a listen for a good laugh.

There are a few tables out front on the sidewalk, a great place to enjoy the house beer Crown and Anchor Brixham's Best, a delicious session bitter, and soak up the beauty of the Brixham harbour.
