What's On

The Martini Trolley: Martini and Fries, the Adult Happy Meal in Paddington

The adult happy meal gets a Paddington address on Friday 20 November: one Martini and truffle fries for £20 per person, every Friday and Saturday from 5pm at Smith's Bar & Grill.

New York started it: a Martini, a side of fries and the nerve to call it a happy meal. London caught on fast and it is easy to see why. Something cold and sharp in one hand, something hot and salty in the other. From Friday 20 November the Martini Trolley rolls it out at Smith's Bar & Grill in Paddington every Friday and Saturday evening, so you can stop pretending olives count as dinner.
