Crockers Folly, NW8

Upmarket bar and (mostly) Lebanese restaurant, formerly the Crown Hotel. The corner 1898 bar has a L-shaped counter with a manager's office accessed under an old clock on the impressive bar-back. The showcase Marble Room to the left is now set aside for dining but is very impressive so well worth a look, as is the Lord's Dining Room beyond. A covered front patio seating area is also available. No real ale unfortunately, with just Peroni, Asahi and Meantime's Anytime IPA (£6.50) available on draught.
