Oak Rooms - Gentlemen’s Club in Notting Hill
“What do they DO in there?” I think that’s what many women wonder when they hear the term “gentlemen’s club.” There are some of us girls, you know, who would actually like a comfortable club like this of our own where no one ever mentions Sex and the City. This club isn’t our usual decor style, truth be told, but it’s so well done it transcends the usual boundaries. The rough-hewn tables juxtaposed with velvet settees, and the harlequin floor that just fades into whiteness - it’s a seamless eclecticism mixing medieval tavern, 18th and 19th C furniture and early 20th C modern. That clock - is it Father Time’s wristwatch? We can’t find a mention of the interior designer’s name anywhere.
