Name That Neighborhood
Another Mystery Neighborhood: click here for more photos. You need to identify the neighborhood, because naming the city is not good enough (and way too easy). Particularly for my brother and Victor Deupi, who are not allowed to enter the contest. I'll put up more photos after some one gets it right.
BTW, if you really try, you can find a sign or two that will let you find where this is.

Close, but no cigar.

Pfft...the neighborhood! I can name the continent - Europe (ok, Britain; someplace with teeny cars).
Actually the underground shot looked a bit like Bristol but all underground shots could look similar. I loved those windows in a couple of the shots. I love architecture; love buildings.

Little Venice in London? The curvy streets lead me to recall the streets of Bath, England but that's not really a neighborhood...and I don't recall Underground stations there.

The pub in the photos is The Prince Alfred & Formosa Dining Room, 5a Formosa Street, London.
Nearest Tube Station Warwick Avenue.
South of Maida Vale station, East of Ladbroke Grove.

Yes, it's the neighborhood center for Little Venice, in Maida Vale. Take a look at the hotel there. Warwick Avenue is only one stop from Paddington Station and six stops from Oxford Circus, on the Bakerloo Line.
