The Pantechnicon

Situated in Motcomb Street, one of the cutest streets in Belgravia, the Pantechnicon is one my favourite gastropubs in London. Whether it is a comfort meal, Sunday lunch or a just drinks with your friends, this place will definitely leave you satisfied. The  venue is split into two levels, a less formal dining room downstairs (Public House as they call it) and a more formal Dining Room upstairs. Everything on the menu is great but make sure you try their burgers. The meat is excellent and some friends have even claimed that Pantechnicon burgers are the best they ever had.

The Phene

While I was away on holiday earlier this month, some of my biggest followers and personal friends, went out on scouting for new places to write about in my blog. One of them, came from my fellow Greek friend Alex, who visited The Phene on Phene Str, SW3. All credits to him then.
What used to be legendary footballer's George Best favorite pub, has gone under a complete makeover and now has a deli in the back, towering vases of lilies on the bar and a women’s fashion label (Lily London) upstairs. Moreover there is a heated terrace outside which makes it great for the summer and smokers all year round. The food menu is diverse offering your typical gastropub food with a twist. From feeling salads, to sea bass, burghers, steaks, all day breakfast and delicious desserts it can cover all tastes. There is also a very good wine list, nice cocktails and beer! Esquire magazine recently described The Phene as the place where men can "watch sport, drink beer and keep your girlfriend happy". I couldn't agree more!
