Official information

The Seven Stars is one of London's oldest public houses, established in 1602. It features a charming interior with historical elements and serves a variety of gastronomic pub food and real ales, attracting a diverse clientele from the nearby Royal Courts of Justice.

From the Wikipedia article

The Seven Stars is a Grade II listed public house at 53–54 Carey Street, Holborn, London. It is unusual for having survived the Great Fire of London. It probably originated in the 17th century and was formerly known as The Log and Seven Stars. While the frontage may bear the date 1602, the building itself is likely to date from the 1680s. The interior served as a filming location for a scene in the 2022 film All the Old Knives.
