The Public House group is quietly reminding punters why we all love the British pub. It kicked off with The Pelican in 2022, but was quickly followed by The Hero in Maida Vale and Cotswolds’ spot The Bull. Each one has a soft but serious smartness as well as putting a focus on local produce. The Pelican’s menu includes blistering Welsh rarebits and scampi reimagined with monkfish. The team’s Italian restaurant, Canteen on Portobello Road, is also worth a trip. First-rate hospitality that always hits the mark.

Calluna stocks a large selection of beautiful flowers, vases and indoor plants. Whether you are looking for the perfect bouquet for your wedding or simply want one for home, at Calluna you will find yourself in flower heaven. 

Pair a trip to our other Portobello vintage store tips with Rellik on Golborne Road. It is also a favourite of Lady Gaga, but the price tags are a little less intimidating. It was founded by a trio of local stall holders – Fiona Stuart, Claire Stansfield and Steven Philip – more than two decades ago and continues to be a joyful space, with rails spanning Ann Demeulemeester to Yohji Yamamoto.

With vintage pieces sourced from all over the world, this vintage shop is pretty unique. We love popping in here and looking at all the beautiful clothes and items.
