With its statues, religious paintings, gaunt oil portraits, panelling and dense drapes, the wildly eclectic, eccentric, boho and gothic Kensal Green bar-club is a top choice for offbeat charm and downright panache. The menu is superb, and the club nights Paradise Presents (hip hop and R&B) on Fridays and Blondie 2 Biggie (hip hop, pop and disco) on Saturdays are massive.
It also has live music and other shows – see the website for details.
