Electric Brasserie

 

The cinema next door - London's oldest film theatre - is what gives the Electric its name and fame but this adjacent buzzing brasserie doesn't do badly either. It gets packed with Notting Hill's twenty something socialites. Brunching on the weekends is almost as social as the night before. But it's not just about seeing who you can see, you can also get a good range of hangover cures from hash browns and the Full Electric to the more virtuous natural yoghurt and honey or museli and banana, depending on how badly you've overdone it. The owners of Soho House are behind the well run operation - there's a members-only bar upstairs as you would expect from this crowd. As with all Soho House establishments, the surroundings are sophisticated with plenty of wood, kind lighting and a bar so stylish you wouldn't be ashamed to be seen propping it up.
