A good solid pub away from the all the hectic bustle of Notting Hill Gate. This place is as tucked away as a pink shirt in the morning and is pretty much all about getting the basics right. There is no music here, I don't think they serve food and the distractions are only as good as the conversation you're having or the drink you're drinking.

Naturally, the choice is pretty varied and the house spirits tend to come in doubles and double is better than single, just look at the fuss about Valentines Day.
