Summary

[edit]
Description

The George and Vulture was built in 1746 as a public house in Castle Court, near Lombard Street, City of London. There has been an inn on the site since 1268.

It was said to be a meeting place of the notorious Hell-Fire Club and is now a City chop house. It is mentioned at least 20 times in The Pickwick Papers by Charles Dickens, who frequently drank there himself.
