Warwick Way is something of a pub enclave, with three worthy stops within the distance you could hurl a pint (not that you would). The Marquis was always the pick of the bunch, with a relaxed vibe that feels like a former living room — though perhaps less so since a makeover robbed it of its dark corners.
It's still convivial, with several different sections to explore. A quintet of draught ales offer the familiar and not so familiarWine drinkers are also well served.
Up the spiral staircase, you'll find a relaxed, intimate dining space serving from a longer-than-usual menu. A basement bar is also available for hire and open at busier times.
Curiously, the eponymous Marquis of Westminster was teetotal, a supporter of the temperance movement, and instrumental in closing 40 beer houses in his constituency of Mayfair. Sweet revenge.
