Fitzroy Street is one of the major roads in the Fitzrovia area and benefits from a fantastic history with strong Bohemian roots.

On the continuance of Charlotte Street and one of the roads which borders Fitzroy Square, Fitzroy Square is in the beating heart of the Fitzrovia area. It is located close to the Fitzroy Tavern which one played host to many famous artists, writers, and intellectuals. These included 1984 author George Orwell, Sir Jacob Epstein who was one of the pioneers of modern sculpture, and Welsh artist Nina Hamnett. Many of those associated with this public house were known as the Bloomsbury Group and were amongst the leading Bohemians and eccentrics in London with many advocating LGBT rights in the UK.

Fitzroy Street was first built in the late 1700s in the Georgian style, with many of these old buildings still standing to this day. The southern section of Fitzroy Street did not always hold this name, before 1967 the section between Howland and Maple Streets was known as Russell Place. The street is incredibly well connected with easy transport links to several stations. It is just a stone’s throw away from Great Portland Street, Warren Street, and Euston Square. This proximity to Euston also means that there are easy transport links to cities around the UK.

There are also many things to see and do in the area with something to amuse everyone. From the above-mentioned Fitzroy Tavern which also features the Pear Shaped Comedy Club. In addition, there are a number of other bars, clubs, and restaurants in the area. These include Simmons bar, and the London Cocktail Club on Goodge Street.
