The Hansom Cab

Part of the Local Beer House group, which also oversees The Dean Swift and Hack & Hop, this cosy Earls Court site features all the hallmarks of a modern-day boozer. The relaxed space has a vintage feel with mismatched furniture and wooden tables, while there’s a strong selection of craft beers from microbreweries to satiate punter’s thirst. The food offering changes monthly, and the menu offers substantial mains, alongside snacks and small plates designed to be paired with beers. On your visit, you might find the likes of lobster nachos smothered in smashed avocado, salsa and jalapenos, or a chicken, leek and mushroom pie, while desserts could include a chocolate brownie Eton mess. A dedicated ‘burger night’ every Tuesday and a Sunday pub quiz add to The Hansom Cab’s welcoming appeal.
