The Crab Tree Club was a nightclub in Greek Street, Soho, London, that was established by the painter Augustus John in April 1914 with the financial support of Thomas Scott-Ellis (Lord Howard de Walden). John wrote to his friend John Quinn, "We are starting a new club in town called the 'Crab-tree' for artists, poets and musicians... It ought to be amusing and useful at times".〔Holroyd, Michael. (1997) ''Augustus John: The New Biography''. 2nd revised edition. London: Vintage, p. 418. ISBN 0099333015〕 The club was a popular meeting place for London bohemians immediately before the First World War who would descend en-masse on the Crab Tree after the Café Royal closed for the night.〔 ==Location== The club was above an R & J Pullman leather warehouse at 17 Greek Street,〔''T. P.'s Weekly''. Vol. 23, 1914, p. 338.〕 and was reached by climbing several flights of wooden stairs which was unusual as London clubs were more often subterranean.〔Roberts, William. (1990) ("The 'Twenties'" ) in ''Five Posthumous Essays and Other Writings''. Valencia: Artes Graficas Soler. ISBN 8440474563〕
