Chelsea Potter, 2010

The Chelsea Potter is a pub at 119 King's Road, Chelsea, London.

It was built in 1842,[1][2] and originally called the Commercial Tavern but was renamed in 1958 in honour of the Chelsea Arts Pottery founded by William de Morgan in 1872.[3]

British History Online notes that "the Chelsea Potter became famous in the 1960s and 70s",[4] and regular customers included Jimi Hendrix, and The Rolling Stones.[3]
