Notting Hill Hotel – or 'The Nott,' as it's affectionately known by locals – has been holding on strong since the 1870s. So when it came to renovating the historic pub, we knew we had to pay the utmost respect to what had come before.

We reimagined the Taproom as a welcoming, approachable bistro; retaining the original fireplace and marble paving in front of the bar, while introducing a dramatic imitation skylight to improve the overall lighting inside. We've amped up the nostalgia with a vintage cinema-inspired menu board and chequerboard tables.

Meanwhile, the Front Bar & Pool Room have been lovingly restored after some intensive consultation (and a few beers) with the regular patrons of the space. We've injected some new vigour via cork and green velvet flooring, without straying too far from its heritage.
