The Rainbow Coffee House was a famous coffee house located at 15 Fleet Street, London.[1] It was opened by James Farr in 1657, becoming London's second coffee house.[2]

The Rainbow provided a meeting place for freemasons and French refugee Huguenots who established an information centre there.[3] The Rainbow was also featured in the furor created by Titus Oates, who accused Sir Philip Lloyd of denying the existence of a popish plot there, finding witnesses from amongst the coffee drinkers to testify against him[4]

In 1719 John Woodward wrote a satire The Two Sosias: Or, the True Dr. Byfield at the Rainbow Coffee-House, to the Pretender in Jermyn-Street

David Hughson wrote in 1807 that the Rainbow was replaced by Nando's Coffee House in the same building, later in the 17th century.[5]
