Hidden off an unassuming side street on Earl’s Court Road you’d be forgiven for thinking you’ve got the wrong address. But once you get past the entry system at Evans & Peel (you need to come armed with a far-fetched story to get in), the bookcase opens to reveal a cosy prohibition style bar where candlelight helps create a frisson of naughtiness.
Grab a slider (read: teeny tiny burger sporting the trend of the moment, pulled pork) from their bar menu and a pisco sour and settle in for a very good first date.
