Designed by renowned architect Edwin Lutyens and opened in 1894, this elegant red-brick building has been extensively renovated into a pub and restaurant which suits all occasions. Despite operating as a pub at the front, there’s a smart look to the place and you’ll find no pub classics on the menus. Instead, subtle hints of creativity and the odd well-judged international influence make for interesting, flavour-packed dishes such as buttermilk fried chicken glazed in house hot sauce and served with satay and pickled mooli. The confident team run things smoothly.
