Old Goat Tavern, London

Built more than 300 years ago, The Old Goat Tavern has retained an olde worlde feel that is popular with the business crowd of Kensington. The tavern is a short walk from Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens and Kensington Palace, and is a good place to enjoy a pint in a real old-fashioned city pub. There is a separate full-service dining area at the rear, serving food that is a bit more upmarket than the average pub fare. Most main courses are traditional British dishes, although lasagnes, curries and chillies are also available.
