The Three Tuns

The Three Tuns

The Three Tuns sits just off Marylebone's main streets on Portman Mews South, close enough to Oxford Street and Hyde Park to feel the city, far enough to keep some calm. It is a historic pub that once served coachmen, servants and stable workers. The exact opening year isn't on record, but the building dates to the early nineteenth century, survived the Blitz, and is the last of the original mews buildings, something the pub is quietly proud of. Behind the bar the emphasis is on well-kept cask ales, craft beers and a thoughtful list of wines, with cocktails and good coffee for slower afternoons. The food is classic pub fare: sharing plates, sandwiches, puddings and Sunday roasts that get a nod from beer and pub reviewers. There is a snug and a back dining room for small groups or meetings, plus WiFi. CAMRA lists it as an Asset of Community Value, with Greene King as leaseholder, Portman Estates as freeholder, and a refurbishment planned for June 2025. Hundreds of TripAdvisor reviews mention the welcome and the service.

All About Portman Square

Portman Square

Portman Square is one of the principal garden squares of west Marylebone, situated within the W1H postcode and forming a centrepiece of the Portman Estate. The square was developed between 1765 and 1784 on land owned by Henry William Portman, whose family had held 11 fields in this part of Marylebone since 1532, making the Portman Estate one of the oldest private landholdings in London.

The architectural highlight of the square is Home House at No. 20, a Georgian townhouse commissioned for the Countess of Home and completed in 1777 to designs by Robert Adam. It is one of Adam's finest surviving interiors in London and today operates as a private members' club. The square's Georgian terraces established it as one of the most sought-after residential addresses of the late 18th century, alongside Oxford Street addresses and the streets of the neighbouring Howard de Walden Estate to the east.

Over the course of the 19th and 20th centuries, many of the original townhouses were converted to commercial and hotel use, a pattern common across the grander Marylebone squares. The central garden remains private. The Portman Estate continues to manage the surrounding streets, including Portman Street, which connects the square southward to Oxford Street. The square's name is preserved across the immediate neighbourhood in Portman Street, Portman Close and the estate's own trading identity.
