The Inns and Taverns of Pickwick is a book written by B.W. Matz that explores the various inns and taverns mentioned in Charles Dickens' novel, The Pickwick Papers.

Matz also delves into the social and cultural context of these establishments, revealing the role they played in 19th-century English society. The book is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of English pubs and inns, as well as fans of Charles Dickens' work.In chapter two of The Pickwick Papers we get a further glimpse of the inn, centring in a more exhilarating and epoch-making incident. The Pickwickians were to start on their memorable peregrinations from the ""Golden Cross"" for Rochester by the famous ""Commodore"" coach; and Mr. Pickwick having hired a cabriolet in the neighbourhood of his lodgings in Goswell Street arrived at the hotel in order to meet his friends for the purpose.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
