The Hare

Looking for that perfect London pub where cozy charm meets culinary excellence? The Hare in London is about to become your new favorite spot for... well, literally everything. Trust me, this isn't just another London pub - it's the kind of place where "quick drinks" turn into "remember that amazing night?" stories.

First things first - imagine the most Pinterest-worthy pub you've ever seen, then add actual substance and soul. The Hare has somehow mastered that elusive balance of being totally Instagram-able without trying too hard. Think vintage books casually stacked on shelves, quirky hare-themed decor that'll make you smile, and corners so cozy you'll want to claim squatter's rights.

But let's talk about what REALLY matters - the food. Oh. My. Days. Their scotch egg (yes, a SCOTCH EGG) has literally ruined all other scotch eggs for me forever. It's like they took everything you thought you knew about pub food and said "hold my craft beer." The chicken liver parfait? It's not just good, it's tell-your-foodie-friends-and-make-them-jealous good.

Speaking of which - ALERT THE SQUAD - they do happy hour cocktails! And we're not talking about sad, watered-down drinks here. These are the kind of cocktails that make you want to cancel your next day's plans (but don't, because adulting and all that).

The garden! How did I almost forget THE GARDEN? Hidden out back like London's best-kept secret, it's this gorgeous tiered paradise that feels miles away from the city chaos. Perfect for those summer evenings when the weather actually decides to cooperate (rare, I know, but when it happens, you'll want to be here).

They've basically thought of everything. Bringing your four-legged friend? They've got a dog menu (fancy boy/girl alert!). Got kids in tow? There's a proper children's menu that isn't just chicken nuggets. Vegetarian? Vegan? They've got you covered with options that aren't just sad afterthoughts.

The Sunday roasts deserve their own paragraph. Actually, they deserve their own Instagram account, but let's not get carried away. Just know that if you're not planning your weekend around one of these, you're doing Sundays wrong. They're the kind of roasts that make you want to start a tradition.

Let's talk logistics because I care about your good time: They take reservations (praise be!), and there's actually parking (I KNOW, IN LONDON!). They accept all forms of payment, so no awkward card-splitting drama. And while it's not cheap-cheap, it's definitely in that sweet spot where you're getting way more than you're paying for.

The service hits that perfect note between attentive and letting you live your life. No hovering, no disappearing acts - just proper hospitality from people who actually seem to enjoy their jobs (revolutionary, right?).

Here's the deal - The Hare is that rare London venue that works for literally every occasion. Date night? The cozy corners were made for it. Family lunch? Sorted. Friend's birthday where you need to impress but not bankrupt everyone? This is your spot. Business lunch where you need to look like you know all the good places? Nailed it.

You're going to want to find yourself in this corner of London soon. Like, check-your-calendar-right-now soon. Because while The Hare isn't going anywhere, your chance to be the friend who discovered "this amazing place" is ticking away. And trust me, you want to be that friend. The only question is - when are we going?
