When visiting a pub in the heart of Belgravia on a Friday evening, one might be forgiven for fearing it will be a pocket-wrenching experience in a gut-squeezingly busy atmosphere. Not necessarily - in the case of The Antelope at least. This cricket obsessed pub is barely a cover-drive away from Sloane Square station yet had bar space for all-comers. But that is not for lack of quality: the choice of ales was Fullers-heavy but reasonably priced, while the highlight of the food was undoubtedly the 'sausage on a stick', coming in at a stomach-satisfying 75p per, er, stick (only for a limited time in the evening). The music was oddly out of place - we were entertained by the 80s pop selection - but it was decidedly in the background. Overall a delightful place to spend a few hours.
