The Cow

Boho pub with a lust for life (and seafood)

Time Out says

This is a pub with its own motto: ‘Eat Heartily and Give the House a Good Name.’ The seafood-focused menu is excellent – more of which later – but that directive might be read as an MO to live well and fully, which they certainly do at the Cow. The décor (think vintage Guinness posters, antlers and other kooky artwork) is at the more boho end of the generally pretty boho Notting Hill, with its location ensuring this is a real celeb hotspot. It was founded by gastropub pioneer Tom Conran, so the emphasis is on that aforementioned grub (served upstairs in the restaurant and at the back of the ground floor saloon in a more casual setting) as much as the drinks, but the Cow is still a vibey spot for a tipple.

Order this

They’re proud of their Guinness and oysters, a silky and salty combination that’s something of a speciality in Ireland. Try it once and you’ll never look back.

Time Out tip

Join the clan of drinkers spilling out onto the street in the warmer months, do some celeb spotting and know that you’ve imbibed the spirit of the Cow’s motto.
