Regent

You know that feeling when you find a pub that just gets the basics absolutely right? That's what you get at this Chapel Allerton corner spot that's become the area's go-to for everything from a quick lunch to weekend catch-ups. The Greene King backing means the beer's consistently good, but it's the food that keeps locals coming back – proper pub grub that doesn't try to be fancy but delivers every time. The weekend brunch crowd knows what's up, rolling in from 11am for full English breakfasts that actually fill you up. During the week, it's office workers grabbing swift lunches and evening diners who appreciate that you can get decent food until 11pm most nights. The extended Friday and Saturday hours make it Chapel Allerton's reliable late-evening option when everywhere else has called it quits.
