Beefeaters, officially known as Yeomen Warders, are the ceremonial guardians of the Tower of London. The origin of the term "beefeater" is debated, but it is commonly believed to derive from the Yeomen's historical right to eat beef from the royal herd. This title dates back to the reign of Henry VII in the late 15th century, and today, Beefeaters are known for their distinctive Tudor-style uniforms and play a key role in the Tower's tours and ceremonies.
