Crown Posada

Traditional pub in the Quayside (l,d; £)

Ken Miller, Crown Posada.

Dating from the late 18th century and situated in the heart of the Quayside, the Crown Posada is an award winning traditional pub famous for its cask ales.

Complete with a Victorian exterior, stained glass windows and dark wood panelling this is the second oldest pub in the city and legend has it that a Spanish ship captain once bought the premises for his mistress - hence the rather unusual name!
