Notting Hill
The Cow
London, England, W2 5QH , United Kingdom
A neon sign reading “Guiness and Oysters” hangs over the door at this lively pub-meets elegant restaurant, informing newcomers that despite its name, the Cow is all about fresh seafood and expertly-poured pints. The downstairs pub is decked out with vintage Guinness signs and, against the sonic backdrop of an eclectic soundtrack, patrons soak up the spirited ambiance and ice-cold brews while chowing down on fresh Irish rock oysters, tasty prawns with mayo, and some of the best fish stew in London. Upstairs in the quieter dining room, a more refined menu offers specialties like the smoked eel with creamy mash, bacon and horseradish.
Insider Tip:
If you prefer the pub scene but would also like a more serene experience, visit during lunchtime when crowds are sparse. It's also easier to snag a patio spot then.
