This pub was known as Maguires Tavern for many years, then had a most successful spell as Gastons, before once again becoming Maguires. It was re-named the New City Bar in 2002.

It closed as a pub in 2003, from this time effectively becoming a night club. It then had a succession of different names - the SoBar, Noir, the Villa R&B Bar, etc.

It was then closed for a lengthy period before being bought by the Holt Pubco people. The pub was almost completely re-built internally, and in March 2019 re-opened as Baker Street.
