Official information

The Bull's Head is a historic pub located along the riverside in Barnes, known for its live jazz music and seasonal British cuisine. Visitors can enjoy a variety of dining options and experience live performances in an acoustically-designed Jazz Room.

From the Wikipedia article

The Bull's Head, also known as The Bull, is a pub in Barnes in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, England. It hosts live music in an attached music room that has a seated capacity of 70 people. Overlooking the river Thames, it was one of the first and most important jazz venues in Britain. The Bull's original music room was opened at the same time as Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club and became known as the "suburban Ronnie Scott's". The front entrance is located on The Terrace with a side entrance on Barnes High Street.
