A neat bar within the four-star Rydges hotel in Kensington, just a short walk from the V&A, Natural History Museum and the Science Museum. The modest space is decorated with dark wood and wine-red crushed velvet seating.
A big screen telly shows all the major sporting events, which can be paired with a pint of Boddingtons, Stella, Guinness or Becks – all of which are on tap – or a snack from the bar. There's also an open fire to watch if the sport doesn't take your fancy.
