About The Fighting Cocks

For decades, The Fighting Cocks has served as a vital cultural artery in Kingston upon Thames, establishing itself as a cornerstone of the London live circuit. Its walls hold a rich musical heritage, dating back to the 1930s, consistently drawing both local patrons and those from further afield seeking authentic live entertainment.

Inside, the atmosphere is distinctly charged, with the low hum of conversation often punctuated by the thrum of a bass guitar or the ripple of laughter. The decor, a blend of red leather and motorcycle blacks, creates a bold, unpretentious setting, while the scent of hops and aged wood hangs subtly in the air.

The bar offers a considered selection of draft and bottled beers, alongside expertly mixed cocktails and traditional real ales. Practicality is also addressed, with disabled access available throughout the venue, including the dedicated performance space.

Throughout the week, the venue hosts a diverse programme of events. Audiences can expect a steady stream of live music spanning various genres, from rock and punk to folk and alternative, alongside acclaimed comedy nights that regularly feature both emerging talents and established names.
