The Fighting Cocks

The Fighting Cocks is Kingston's grassroots rock pub and a proper institution for live music fans. Its dark, characterful bar and back-room stage host up-and-coming bands, punk and metal nights, tribute acts and the occasional surprise big name. Expect a friendly, no-nonsense crowd, a well-stocked bar and DJs keeping things going late at weekends. It is the kind of venue where you might catch tomorrow's festival headliners on a sweaty Tuesday. It sits on London Road, a short walk from Kingston town centre and the station.
