The Colton Arms
The Colton Arms is a great pub right next to Queens Club. It has just undergone a major refurbishment and looks so beautiful inside and out. There is a lovely beer garden, a great new chef and a wonderfully friendly team. They also have quiz nights, steak nights, deals on prosecco, brunch and a cracking Sunday roast. I couldn't recommend it more.Read more

Thanks For Having Me
Nell Tiger Free, Kedar Williams-Stirling, Adeyinka Akinrinade and Keelan Kember star in Thanks for Having Me. Cashel is 30 and a neurotic overthinker. Fresh from a breakup, he moves in with his best friend, Honey—a lifelong bachelor who only has a thought every few days. Can these mismatched roommates survive together? Thanks for Having Me is a sharp, comedic take on modern romance and heartbreak at the tail end of your twenties. Who is really seducing whom? Playwright and performer Keelan Kember’s previous play, February Face, enjoyed a sell-out run at the Old Red Lion, was nominated for a Standing Ovation Award for New Writing, and was later optioned as a TV pilot by a production company. The play went on to transfer to the Main House at King’s Head Theatre, receiving high critical acclaim before its subsequent transfer to Riverside Studios.Read more

M Huncho
North-west London's anonymous, mask-wearing rapper M Huncho produces a woozy, trippy style of rap he calls "trapwave," with lyrics authentically reflecting his life on the streets. After making a name for himself on the local scene, he burst out in April 2017 when he appeared on the web show Mad About Bars, in which a different rapper is asked to come on each week and do a freestyle. Fans of the show immediately pronounced Huncho's freestyle one of the best there had ever been, and his reputation was secured.Read more
