The Hampshire Hog was a tavern at 410 The Strand, London, next door to The Adelphi Theatre.

It's trade relied heavily on visitors to the theatre.

The pub was taken over in 1887 (along with the house next door and the Nell Gwynne tavern in Bull Inn Court) by the Adelphi Theatre (at the time run by the Gatti family.) The Hampshire Hog was renovated and absorbed into the theatre complex.

A new enlarged facade was built as part of the renovation, and this can still be seen today.
