Twinings Museum

[1][2] Thomas Twining (1675-1741) moved with his family from Gloucester to London in 1684, when he was nine years old.

Twining purchased Tom's Coffee Shop, in Devereux Court, off the Strand, in 1706.

By 1717, Twining was trading at 216 Strand, at the sign of the Golden Lyon, where the business remains.

The classical door case is surmounted by a pediment with a statue of a golden lion, and two figures of Chinese men who signify the origin of the beverage.
