Nags Head

Is this London's smallest pub? The award-winning Nags Head is certainly compact and bijou, with a frontage like a Dickens shop and an unspoilt interior. Located in a quiet mews near Harrods, its front and back bars, connected by a narrow stairway, boast wooden floors, panelled walls, and low ceilings. It was built in the early 19th-century to cater for the footmen and stable hands who looked after the horses in these Belgravia mews. The walls are covered with photos, drawings, mirrors and more: there are military hats and model aeroplanes too. There is a cosy, easy atmosphere here along with a bar that is only waist high. The full Adnams range is served, along with a good value menu: daily specials, a help-yourself salad bar, and traditional favourites such as real ale sausages, mash and beans; steak and mushroom pie; and chilli con carne are all on offer. There are also ploughman's lunches and sandwiches.
