    After the madness of the Olympics, find some inner calm at the Midori Chi Garden

    Just a stone's throw from the King's Road lies The Phene, a gorgeous neighbourhood pub often frequented by the Made In Chelsea cast.

    On a sunny day in London than can be no better pub garden to flock to than the stunning one on offer at The Phene in Chelsea. With comfy sofas, hanging wicker seats, twinkling fairy lights and, for the chillier nights, heaters and fireplaces, this urban retreat has it all.

    The food is good but the cocktails are better, and with plenty of Sloane Rangers to people watch, it's easy to pass hours and hours in this pub.

    From August 16, the already luxurious outside space is being transformed into a stylish Japanese-inspired cocktail garden with the refreshing drinks provided by Midori. The idea is to help Londonders recover and re-discover their inner calm after the madness of the London 2012 Olympics.
