Bars & Pubs

Occo Bar & Kitchen

This quiet Moroccan-inspired venue, subtly lit by flickering lanterns, is more of a restaurant than a boozer, which is in keeping with its laid-back feel. There's an...

Distance: 0.2 mls

Duke of Wellington

Since its makeover by the owners of the Brown Dog in Barnes, the Duke has attracted a moneyed clientele happy to splash out £30 on a decent Pouilly-Fumé or £55 on a...

Beehive

As Gerry Rafferty once sang of Baker Street, it's got 'So many people, but it's got no soul' and, well, he wasn't wrong. Head west off it and you'll come across this...

Distance: 0.3 mls

Royal Exchange

One of the best boozers within easy striking distance of Paddington, this is a cosy old school gaff with a dedication to fine beer and fine horses. By day, screens...

Mason's Arms

One of just three London pubs operated by the Dorset brewery Hall & Woodhouse, the Mason's Arms isn't one for showing off. There's no stripped pine and no farmer's...

Golden Eagle

Every year, we like this pub a bit more. And every year, it seems a bit more agreeably out of place. Sure, a paint job has brightened it up, but the Golden Eagle...

Perched beside a mini-roundabout and posh Hyde Park mews, it's easy to see why the Victoria has drawn everyone from Dickens and Churchill to the Dracula Society. A...

Moose Bar

I can't imagine anyone not liking this place. The latest venture from the Vince Power Music Group, opened late last year, is a rarity in the West End: cosy, reasonably...

Maida Vale: 6 Warwick Place, W9 2PX

Distance: 0.9 mls

Queen's Head & Artichoke

A tidy gastronomic operation on a quiet corner near Regent's Park. Most of the patrons at this light-flooded, converted Victorian pub come for the food, though the...

Distance: 0.9 mls

Maida Vale: 93 Warrington Crescent, W9 1EH

Distance: 0.9 mls

Artesian

Breathtaking is the word for Artesian’s list of cocktails: order any three, add service, and you won’t get much change from £50. At least you’ll be drinking...

Marylebone: Langham Hotel, 1C Portland Place, W1B 1JA

Distance: 0.9 mls

E Bar

Despite its pleasantly polished feel, subterranean E Bar never seems overrun with customers. In fact, if you're looking for a place to chat in relative peace and...

Distance: 0.9 mls

Bridge House

In keeping with its co-occupant the Canal Café Theatre upstairs, there is an arty look and bohemian feel at this laid-back local. The crowd who drink here are mostly...
