The Fox & Hounds was famous until 1998 as the last pub in London to have a 'beer only' licence;…read morethis throw-back to the 1830 Beer Act meant it could only sell beers and wines (no spirits). The same landlady had run it for 30 years and it had a quirky but very loyal, mainly local, customer base - and had won numerous awards over the years as London's best pub. The pub was acquired in 1998 by Youngs, who vowed to keep its character, but of course got a full liquor licence, and to start with made a bit of a hash of things - less friendly, dull menu, that sort of thing. Since then it has improved enormously, and whilst it is not what it was in the 1990's, is again a small, cosy local boozer with real ale and loads of character, which offers food at lunchtimes and evenings (though I've not eaten here for a while). The location ensures an extraordinarily varied mix of clientele, including wealthy Sloane types (Sloane Square is but a stone's throw away), old-fashioned Londoners and the devotees of stratospheric Anglo-Catholicism in nearby St Mary Bourne Street (see separate entry). Somehow the mix seems to work. There are lots of loyal regulars, so some find it a little cliquey - though I have to say this has never bothered me. Worth popping in, if you are in the area.

We ordered a mad hatter which looked amazing and was yummy. It's a good amount for 6 ppl to share. I also had a yogi bear cocktail which was good. This place is expensive.. So beware. Bart's has a loud music and people do dance. I thought it would be more like a bar. I had fun! The music was in general good but the DJ was not very good as there were moments with long pauses and the transition from one sine to the other was slow. It sounded like they were using Spotify as their DJ actually. The downside is the service. It was really really really slow and not attentive at all. We asked for water there were 6 of us and we had 2 water glasses. The waitress brought us a teapot filled with water.. But no additional glasses. Also, our waitress asked us if we would like shots that has mango juice and prosseco. She presented in such a way that it seemed like it was 'on the house'. But we were actually charged in the end. Cheeky. In general, I think the theme is great. The decor is amazing. It is a good night out but I personally wouldn't go more then once. London has many other great bars with more innovative cocktails and better service.

Music was also the right tune for this venue. My friends had a glass of wine each and I had the house swedish cocktail which was concoted perfectly. The hot dogs and the cheese platters were a thing to remember too.

Kosmopol is similar to Eclipse in that it has a small intimate lounge upstairs and a larger louder dance club downstairs. It specialises in carefully made intricate drinks, including a fresh watermelon martini. The lounge is a good place to take a first date, the club is good for a group of friends on a South Ken dance crawl. As for the 1761s, I'm a big fan of French 75s but I have to admit that the pineapple twist won me over. I'll be back for more.

Customers sit on leather booths or bar stools, served by female waitresses in glamorous dresses. I was there with Andrew M, Erica U and Dza D. First up were the cocktails, in my case, the signature 'Galante'. I'm generally a cocktail-sceptic: too often they appear to be little more than labour-intensive, watery additions to a glassful of ice. But the 'Galante' served here was so much better than that: a super-strong mixture of various liqueurs, a cherry at the bottom of the glass and no ice in sight. Had I drunk that all night, I would have been a happy man. But as a Yelper I thought it my duty to try their other stuff too. So, feeling lucky, I opted for their random mix of the day: 'Canta' (Spanish for 'chance'). And quickly discovered that I should have listened to Clint's monologue about the Magnum being the most powerful gun in the world, for 'Canta' proved to be exactly the kind of cocktail I dislike: hardly any alcohol, some fruit juice, and a whole lot of ice. To their credit, the staff took it off the bill and replaced it with some Argentinian beer instead. A welcome gesture, but unfortunately the beer wasn't great, rivalling US Budweiser for depth. In and amongst the cocktails and beer I also tried some of their Argentinian wine. I loved the huge glasses they came in, but I didn't think the wine was spectacular, certainly not for the £8.50 charged per glass. But I wasn't done there. An ill-conceived game against Erica (that stuff about alcohol affecting your decision-making? It's true) of 'Spot the American' in the crowd of women in the neighbouring booth with double Tequila shot stakes resulted in, well, us all trying their Tequila. Perhaps for the better, because it showed their Tequila to be pretty good. Overall, okay. Great service, swanky interior and some good drinks (their 'Galante', the Tequila) off-set by some not-so-much ones (their beer, the 'Canta' cocktails) and the high price of everything (most cocktails were around the £12 mark, wine was £8.50 a glass).

Posh doesn't even begin to describe the visual image of Bar Galante. Having organised drinks here…read moreon Friday, I failed to dig in a bit (or use any sort of common sense) as to what an appropriate dress code would be. So naturally, being Friday and all, I rocked up in jeans, polo, and cycling gear. Wow was I out of place. I've got to describe how it looks to put this in perspective. This is the epitome of glamorous (despite the door to Gaucho) with black, white, and silver being the colours of choice. The bar is the centrepiece with tables and booths scattered around. The hostess is delicately attired in a slim black dress, the waitresses in skin tone shifts that hug their shapely curves and show off long legs, and the immaculately coiffed (never thought I'd use that word) bartenders are dressed to kill in white dinner jackets. If I was wearing my tux I would just about be on par. That being said, I've got to give credit to the warm personalities of both the hostess and waitresses. They didn't have that puffed up sense of importance you all too often find in such places and really made us feel comfortable and welcome. Our waitress was very knowledgeable about the different cocktails and ingredients (some of which I've never heard of) and patiently answered our questions. She even recommended drinks when requested and her choices were fantastic. I had an old fashioned style drink which was sweet and smoky in just the right ways and something that was a tropical version of a Moscow mule. They have a selection of food although be warned that these aren't meant to be a replacement for dinner but merely to take the edge off your hunger. I suppose that makes sense since Gaucho is attached and most people likely come for pre- and post-dinner drinks. However, the seafood ceviche was most excellent and the trio of mini-burgers was well received by my friends who polished them off in a heartbeat. It's ridiculously quiet in part due to the design and part due to the fact it's rarely more than half full. This makes it great for catching up with friends but also discourages people watching. I didn't realise Erica U was in the booth next to me until Peter S showed up and pointed it out to both of us! It's a bit of an expensive place with cocktails running from £10-14 and food being about £7 per dish. I think two drinks and the ceviche took me to around £35-40 so definitely not a place to spend the whole night unless you are feeling proper flush. Still, if I'm in the area and just meeting up for a drink, I'd definitely keep this in mind! Provided I had my tux on of course...

The bartender was friendly and offered up a few larger suggestions for me. Guinness for the little lady, delightfully poured and a 1664 for me. We sat at a little two top, next to a window looking outside. They have a seating area outside for when the weather is nice. Apparently they also have Thai food available to order since they past out some menu's to us. We passed, however the next two times we were in, the locals praised the quality of the food. We met a nice gentleman at the bar our last time in and we shared some good stories about the pub and his life. All very friendly and polite conversations. Worth a stop if you are in the hood.
