The Yorkshire Stingo was a public house in Marylebone in the 18th to mid-20th century. Its name came about because it was customary for Yorkshiremen in London to gather at the pub and its adjoining pleasure gardens on the first three days of May each year. In May 1808 it was reported that over 20,000 people gathered there, drinking strong ale, playing football and other 'rustic Yorkshire sports'. The Stingo part of its name comes from a fashionable slang word of the 18th century for strong or old ale. The term is possibly derived from the sharp, or "stinging" flavour of a well-matured beer.
