What is the name of the inn in Bree where the hobbits meet Strider?

The inn in Bree where the hobbits meet Strider is called The Prancing Pony. It is a busy coaching inn run by Barliman Butterbur in the town of Bree.

Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin stop at the Prancing Pony after leaving the Shire. They are expecting to meet Gandalf, but he has not arrived. Instead, they encounter the mysterious Ranger known as Strider, who is later revealed to be Aragorn, heir to the thrones of Gondor and Arnor. A letter from Gandalf helps Frodo trust him.

The inn becomes dangerous when Frodo accidentally puts on Bilbo’s magic ring in the common room, drawing the attention of the Ringwraiths. Aragorn then helps protect the hobbits and guides them toward Rivendell.

The Golden Perch and the Ivy Bush are other inns in Bree, which makes them easy to confuse with the Prancing Pony. The Green Dragon, meanwhile, is an inn in Hobbiton and is associated with the hobbits’ home region, not their meeting with Strider.
