The pleasures of your last beach holiday may be something that is temporarily erased from your memory bank, partly due to the travails of modern living, but here's a venue that helps in recreating that broken link with great food, fine cocktails and an amazing atmosphere. Beach Bar and Grill is an unlikely name for an operation on Fulham Road in the heart of Chelsea, but their relaxed tone is just what one needs after a hard day's labour.

The menu promises a modern European culinary experience with starters like asparagus served with Serrano ham, parmesan cheese and a light béchamel sauce, and large sea scallops with cauliflower puree and green pesto sauce. If you're looking for something light, there's a selection of bar nibbles such as Spanish omelette, squid in a light batter with aioli sauce and assorted finger sandwiches.

The drinks list at the Beach is not to be taken lightly as there are signature cocktails, beers and an extensive list of spirits.
