Bar review: Gough’s on Gough in NoHo – sleek and stylish with exceptional service

The vibe: Gough’s on Gough is a sleek, stylish modern British bar and restaurant, easily spotted by the fish tank with a diver inside by the entrance.

There are two bar areas: one at street level and the other next to the upstairs restaurant, which is reached by an elegant if rather steep spiral staircase (you will want to take care when descending after a few drinks).

The decor is eclectic, yet the disparate elements – art-deco-style black and white floor, massive crystal bar ornaments, cosy leather seating – come together well.

The service is exceptional – so welcoming and attentive you feel as if you’ve walked into an old-fashioned private club.
