Despite the staff having faces like they've been sucking lemons I do love this drinking establishment in W8.
Situated halfway between Earls Court & High Street Kensington this is a perfect after work watering hole.
The clientle are a mix of trendy media types and late business lunches to the odd student or couple out on a date.
Food is served, I recommend the giant potato wedges and spicy Mayonisase.
They also serve Fruli a yummy begium strawberry beer which I love and it very hard to got hold of in London.
The beer garden is psciius and situated in the front of the pub with giant heat lamps under a canopy to keep your warm if it's a tad nippy.
Inside there are fairylights, lovely old looking leather couches and foot poofs, gilt mirros and candles.
Its not really the best pub for sporting events as a large screen TV appears and is placed at the back of the pub (this suits me though as I go to socialise and not watch football!).
On sundays there is a very hard pub quiz with a cash prize, but be careful not to upset the regulars how lay claim to tables as their own!
A wonderful quite backstreet pub with lots of character in a great location

Sounds OK to me, although I'm not so sure about the Strawberry Beer!! Larry

Looks like a decent local. My local is about to become a Starbucks. Boo. Have a strawberry beer for me! Dan.
