Tiny Robot

78 Westbourne Grove, W2 5RT020 7065 6814
Tube: Bayswater

The scene: Moving into the area vacated by Harlem Soul Food, Tiny Robot makes the most of limited space, with a welcoming bar and bench seating snaking around the facade to offer perfect views of the busy shopping strip outside.

The grub: It’s a perfect menu for anyone looking for a more substantial nibble with their drinks, with platters of various sizes to choose from. Get into the spaghetti and meatballs – bloody tasty.

Behind the bar: There’s an extensive cocktail menu and some impressive whiskeys that aren’t necessarily household names.

Bill please: You pay per item so you can eat for loose change or max out on a £28 t-bone. Cocktails start at £6 or you can go for a punch at £25.

Verdict: A vital addition to an area short on watering holes. Great for a quick bite any time of day or for settling in late at night.

4/5
