Bars & Pubs

This handsome Young's pub, located in the small leafy area between Hammersmith and Shepherd's Bush and attached to the small hotel of the same name, was tarted up in a re-vamp last year. Now the luxurious brown and green interior, complete with leather chairs and the odd chandelier, has a sort of regal elegance. Chill out music, dim lighting and a decent, well-priced cocktail menu draw a young crowd at weekends, while during the week there's an almost corporate feel, with a mix of business types and hotel guests. On tap are Young's, Winter Warmer and Bombardier. There's also an excellent whisky selection. The extensive wine list is divided into bottles from Europe and Rest of the World.
