Call them pubs, gastropubs or watering holes, Chelsea is one of the best places to hang out with friends and sip on a pint of beer or lager, or a glass of wine or champagne. The Sporting Page, a landmark in one sense frequented by the members of the Chelsea Arts Club, this Camera Place address has also seen many a drinker celebrate a sporting victory or brood over a loss.

Whilst uncertainties in the sporting field abound, it's heartening to note that the food here is consistent and is taken seriously, infusing a lot of seasonal and local ingredients. Consider sharing a hot platter of cocktail sausages, mini fishcakes, chicken skewers and potato skins with sour cream, salsa, cheese and crispy bacon, or if you wish to go solo try the The Sporting cheese and bacon burger, steak and mushroom pie, or lamb shank with mash, sautéed cabbage and gravy. An ice cream dessert is a must see on most menus and here you could choose Jude's individual strawberry, vanilla and chocolate ice cream pots.
