Drinks in the hood

The Hansom Cab, Earls Court, London.

The Hansom Cab sits on Earls Court Road, a proper London pub that's managed to keep its character despite the area's changes. This Victorian corner establishment takes its name from the horse-drawn cabs that once served the nearby station. Inside, the pub maintains its traditional features - dark wood panelling, brass fittings, and a curved bar that anchors the space.
Unlike many London pubs that have gone gastro, The Hansom Cab keeps things refreshingly straightforward. It serves a solid selection of real ales, decent pub grub, and draws a mixed crowd of locals, hospital staff from the Royal Marsden, and visitors staying in the area's many hotels. The pub's side street location, just off the main drag, helps it maintain a neighbourhood feel.Læs mere
