Nicholson's New Ales

£££

It’s always a good day when a new beer comes out. And when two come along at the same time, it’s twice as good. That’s simple maths. 

Nosh: Made in Chelsea

Want to learn how to be a healthy cook? Nosh serves up an impressive dose of nutritional information, but I suspect most people will find their cooking classes lacking that crucial 'oomph'.

Has all the things we've come to expect from a great bar: Good drinks; ambience; a roof terrace and, crucially, cephalopods with breasts.

rice [“rahys”] - (noun): A starchy grain used extensively in Thai cuisine which is usually boiled, steamed, baked or - more importantly - used to make awesome cocktails. 

GGs @ The Great Eastern Dining Room

£££

A good all rounder, but this food and beer matching venue doesn't seem to do exactly what it says on the tin...

Dishoom Chowpatty Beach

Spicy Indian beach hut provides the perfect excuse to stay local this summer.
