My Fair Townhouse – GAY TIMES – Gay Times Magazine

At opening, this was where food was served but downstairs there is a huge and sexy restaurant, broken into areas – like the hotel itself – so it all feels intimate. Deep sage walls, strange portraits of the family who used to live in at least one of these houses – whose eyes seem to follow you around the room – and deco touches give it all a slightly louche atmosphere, nowhere more so than in the little den, an alcove off the main room, scarlet in colour and lined with strange fox-themed pictures. If you ever need a secret snog with someone inappropriate, this is your spot.

The menu also keeps various plates spinning, veering from lobster curry to a range of burgers (including vegan!), padron peppers, halloumi fries… even ‘invisible chips’, which don’t actually arrive but where your money goes to charity.
