The Queen's Head was a pub at 144 Stockwell Road, Brixton, London SW9.

It is a Grade II listed building, "of Regency appearance with alterations".^[1]

History

The pub was originally named The New Queen's Head, and A History of Brixton asserts that it is in its original building from 1786.^[2] Brixton Heritage Trails states its construction replaced an older pub with a similar name.^[3] The "New" in the name was presumably to differentiate itself from The Old Queen's Head that was also in the same area, then known as Stockwell Green.^[4]

In 1894 an accepted tender for "additions and alterations" was reported in the construction trade periodical The Builder.^[5]

In the 1990s it was run under the name The Far Side,^[2] but by 2001 it was called The Z-Bud.^[3]

For some time in the 2010s and early 2020s it was a music venue, and is known as where Fat White Family rehearsed, performed, and put on their own night, Slide-In.^[6]^[7]^[8] The band Shame also started to rehearse there shortly after.^[9]

In November 2014 photos emerged of the then landlord dressed in blackface at a party there, with another guest wearing a Ku Klux Klan costume and performing a Nazi salute, causing public outrage that was reported in the national press.^[10]

In September 2015 that landlord gave up the lease and it closed. Soon after it reopened under different management as a gastropub focusing on local ales and food, though still with live music and club nights.^[11]

As of January 2024 it closed its doors to the public and is currently boarded up.^[12]
