The Kings Head British Pub in St. Augustine, an authentic British pub, has waited decades for this historic moment: the coronation of a new monarch.
– Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation was the first one to ever be televised in 1953, and now King Charles III’s ceremony will be streamed, tweeted and broadcast on TikTok.Ann Dyke, the owner of the Kings Head British Pub in St Augustine, said she watched that first televised coronation in 1953 when Charles’ mother was crowned.
“Being a little girl, [I remember] the crowds,” Dyke said. “There were so many people everywhere. You would have street parties so that everybody in the street could have a table in the middle of the street. They would bring food, there would be balloons, music, dancing, and drinking at every street.”
The pub opened 30 years ago and it’s known for hosting celebrations of Royal events, including the upcoming historic coronation.
