One of Gintime’s fave bars, The Lonsdale in Notting Hill, relaunched last week at a glittering event whose special guests included Sarah Jane Crawford, Sara Parker-Bowles, Channel 5’s Nat Coombs, Sara Gilmour, and Poppy Delevingne who took to the decks for a special DJ set.

The Lonsdale has a brand new interior and is serving a new steakhouse menu, courtesy of master butchers, Allens of Mayfair. The original cocktail list, which is as revered amongst locals as it is within the drinks industry, has been retained, so we can be sure it will be the same standard of gorgeous drinks. The new team includes Tim Gardner (Cocoon, The Wellington Club), Jasmine Walters (The Ivy Club) and Jason Wallis (Hawksmoor), whose credentials will undoubtedly ensure that The Lonsdale becomes a mainstay of West London culture.
