The Alliance NW6 is a welcoming neighbourhood pub at 40 to 42 Mill Lane in West Hampstead. Its bar and dining areas serve local residents throughout the week, combining the easy pace of a traditional public house with a more adventurous seasonal kitchen. The atmosphere works equally well for drinks, a casual supper or a full Sunday lunch.
Small plates range from padron peppers and beetroot hummus to lamb kofta, crab cakes and buttermilk fried chicken. Macaroni and cheese croquettes, sweet corn ribs and changing vegetable dishes give vegetarian and vegan diners substantial choices. These starters can begin a meal or form a broad sharing spread for a table gathered around drinks.
Main courses keep pub favourites in view through cheeseburgers, chicken schnitzel, beer battered haddock and steak with chips. Seasonal meat and vegetable plates introduce produce such as squash, mushrooms, barley and goat cheese in more composed recipes. On Sundays, beef, pork belly, chicken and vegan Wellington arrive with roast potatoes, vegetables, Yorkshire pudding and gravy.
Sticky toffee pudding, chocolate fondant, fruit crumble and changing ice creams provide familiar finishes. The bar pours Guinness, lager, cider, local pale ales and alcohol free beer alongside wine, spirits and soft drinks. A children's menu and smaller Sunday roasts make the Alliance particularly practical for family meals as well as evenings with friends.
