Earls Court

Earl’s Court has been an epicentre of arts, culture and accessible entertainment for London and the world for 130 years.
In that time it has been a haven for artists, performers and creatives - and a hotspot for those in search of both mainstream and alternative arts and culture.
From opera in the park to a wild night out to remember (or not), Earl’s Court has it all: Great takeaway food, fine dining, theatre, live music, outdoor performances, large sports pubs, secret watering holes and historic walks.

Food
A stroll along Earl’s Court’s main drag and backstreets offers the visitor a raft of food options from around the globe. For a full list, see here.

Theatre
For immersive off-West-End performances, the Finborough Theatre is an internationally recognised one-of-a-kind. This pub-theatre has a capacity of just 50 people, so book early for both radical new productions and reinterpretations. The theatre reopens on the 14 September.

Live Music
The Troubadour is London’s most iconic basement music venue. Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones and Elton John have played legendary sessions here and it retains the vibe.

Pubs
The neighbourhood also has a brilliant range of great bars, pubs - favourites include The Earl’s Court Tavern, The Prince of Tek, The King’s Head, The Blackbird, and The Bolton.

Secret Watering Holes
Evans & Peel Detective Agency and the verdant back garden of The Troubadour are staunch favourites.

Historic Walks
