A great and very old traditional pub, but also now a first class Italian Bistro. The relatively new…read moreowners have refurbed the attached 'barn' and are serving a short menu of italian food probably better than at any other italian restaurant I've been to. They also store and serve their beer very well, so a winner all round. Only criticism is that the 'pub' area including the bar, is very small, plenty of outdoor seating, but very little inside if not eating. I would certainly recommend it though! The map that's showing does put it in the wrong place though -- it's on Marsh Lane opposite Highwood Hill in Mill Hill.

I did just that when I had friends visiting from the USA. It was a perfect day weather wise so the garden area was unfortunately busy, so we sat inside. You can get some good ale here with a few choices from Fullers. I have not eaten here but I am told it is good. My friends thought it was fantastic and was especially fascinated by a couple of locals with a dog sitting enjoying their pint. They told us the pub has been around for years and nothing has been modernised inside. We had a good afternoon here. I recommend this pub for its character and its ales.

Happy to see that The KPH is still a pub, albeit not quite the same. There's been a local campaign…read moreto save the pub against plans to develop the buliding into luxury flats with an estate agents downstairs. KPH stands for Kensington Park Hotel, and even though it hasn't been run as a hotel for years there are loads of rooms upstairs, making this every developer's wet dream. The KPH has had a colourful past, but the last couple of years have been particularly special, and sometimes you don't know what you're missing until it's gone. Somehow the last management got it just right, the old bar received a gentle makeover but you'd never know that the fixtures and fittings hadn't always been there. One of the main attractions for me was the music - somehow a good pub band helps to make everyone welcome. OK, enough about the past. Fortunately, the KPH was closed for just a couple of weeks before new tenants moved in and the pub has been operating under new management for a couple of months now. The KPH is located on a busy corner which has had a pub on it for the last 150 years and is an obvious hangout, no surprise then that the bar is always busy. I made this my first stop for after work drinks last night and was pleased to see a few familiar faces. There was a band, just like the old days, and even some of the bar staff are still the same. But that's where the similarities end, the atmosphere just isn't the same. The bar looks like a temporary pop up with building materials stored under the counter, and they still just accept cash. The walls were repainted in a cold grey and sparsely decorated with generic blackboards and pictures. Some sport was streamed on several TV screens while the band were playing - overkill, especially as the music volume was put up so high the sound was distorted and there was a lot of nasty feedback. We decided to join the smokers outside to have a chat and were soon on our way. A long way to go to recapture the magic of the previous incarnation!

Very light and clean yet traditional enough to feel like a proper pub. We've had drinks downstairs on several occasions with no complaints. We just tried eating lunch in the dining room but since there wasn't anyone else up there we opted for lunch downstairs in the pub with the same menu. The macerated tomatoes with anchovies starter is quite good unless you are not an anchovy fan. I loved it, the wife did not. She ordered the leek and potato soup and quite enjoyed that. My main was a roasted leg of rabbit under bacon and server with a mustard sauce and I wanna say kale. I left not one drop on the plate. Service was good but a little slow, though we chalked it up to being a busy, rainy Saturday and the place was packed. We look forward to many a meal and drinks here in future.

We weren't sure if we were going to make it for lunch or dinner due to jet lag so we hadn't booked a table but took a chance and walked in anyway.

Tons of people were having the Sunday roast and it looked incredible, but I wasn't that hungry so I had a beef and mushroom pie instead. It was delicious and super filling. Instead of a pint I had an espresso martini to try to wake me up, it didn't disappoint. Definitely worth a visit on a Sunday or anyway. Great pub with outstanding food.

During the day it plays host to many of the thousands of businessmen who commute to this area of the city on a daily basis, as well as a assorted mix of travellers and tourists. At lunch and clocking-off time things can become absurdly crowded so it's probably best to avoid these times. At weekends things are more subdued and this can be an ideal spot for a relatively cheap drink. Unlike most other Wetherspoons establishments, Hamilton Hall is actually pretty easy on the eye stretching over two floors by means of an elegant spiral staircase. The bar staff are pretty brusque but one can hardly expect people who are this busy to pause and smile at every customer. Drinks, although expensive for Wetherspoons, are decidedly cheaper than most other places in the vicinity. All in all not too shabby.

The staff are super friendly, I got talking to one of the bar men who was a fellow Northerner from Huddersfield. We had a few giggles and he kindly put one ice cube in one glass of wine and three in the other as requested without a bat of an eye lid. It was a Friday evening so the place was booming but we were able to grab a seat upstairs and we had an enjoyable drink.
