Hudson, a West End New American opening this week, has glammed up the former site of David Greggory, giving it a retro-chic look with a granite-topped bar, hardwood floors and lush raspberry-and-taupe banquettes – there’s an outdoor patio and a curtained-off VIP preserve too; its breakfast through late-night menus offer upscale riffs on comfort fare, as well as novel and classic mixed drinks – all designed to convince locals to treat it as an annex to their offices and homes.
