The Stablehand
Price: Expensive•British•4.5(357)Built in 1839 on an old archery range, this pub quickly became a cherished neighbourhood meeting spot and was frequented by notable locals throughout its history, from Winston Churchill to Tony Blair.
To honour the historical roots of the establishment, offer our take on the quintessential British gastro pub. We aim to be London's only gastro pub sourcing all of our ingredients from the British Isles, and where that is not possible, we look to source ingredients from countries and territories with close links to Britain, such as our lemons from Gibraltar. Our Head Chef champions British produce through culinary favourites such as steak, fish pie, and the classic treacle pudding.Our unique drinks & wine list is also fully sourced from sustainable vineyards, breweries and distilleries across BritainThree Falcons Gastro Pub
Price: Expensive•Indian•4.4(28)Central London's first Indian Gastropub, Three Falcons is two authentic distinct experiences at a single location. Whether one is looking for a relaxed evening at a friendly Pub with friends or an experiences infused with the aromas and flavors of aromatic, delightful Indian cuisine, Three Falcons is the natural choice. This duality, this unique combination, this coming together of two different worlds, coexisting, yet staying true to their promise makes us a compelling proposition to our patrons.
