The King of Prussia, located at 47 Broadway, Stratford, London, is a Grade II listed former public house with a history spanning over three centuries. The pub is believed to have been named ‘The King of Prussia’ due to a royal visit in 1842. King Frederick William IV, the King of Prussia, met Elizabeth Fry, the prison reformer, in the area. The pub was built in the early 18th century and stood opposite St John's Church. It was on CAMRA's list of historic pub interiors until it closed in late 2025, and reopened after major renovation in September 2026.
