Stables Bar

Verified
4.9(680 reviews)
98/100
Stables Bar is a real charmer in Kensington, serving up brilliant cocktails and warm service in an elegant yet welcoming space – perfect for a special treat or a sophisticated catch-up.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The cocktails are an absolute delight – creative, fun, and beautifully presented, with staff like Angelo offering spot-on recommendations that make every visit feel special.
  • The service is top-notch; the team is incredibly attentive and welcoming, going above and beyond to create a personalised experience that leaves you feeling like a valued guest.
Areas for Improvement
  • It might come across as a bit formal and upscale, which could feel a tad stuffy if you're after a more casual, no-fuss pint with mates.
  • Given its hotel setting in a posh area like Kensington, prices are likely on the higher end, so it may not be the best spot for a budget-friendly night out.

AMARO BAR - London
2nd
4.9(269 reviews)
97/100
AMARO BAR in Kensington is a cracking cocktail spot with stellar drinks, a welcoming vibe, and friendly service that'll make your night out memorable.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The cocktails are absolutely spot on – think modern twists on classics with fresh, balanced flavours that really hit the mark.
  • The atmosphere is warm and inviting, perfect for a cosy evening out in Kensington, with an intimate vibe that makes you feel right at home.
Areas for Improvement
  • The cocktails, while excellent, might not surprise you with anything wildly innovative, so if you're after something totally out-there, it could feel a bit familiar.
  • They only take card payments, which is handy for most, but if you're old-school with cash, you'll need to plan ahead.

The Bear Pub
3rd
4.8(1268 reviews)
96/100
The Bear Pub in Paddington is a cracking spot for craft beer lovers, boasting a brilliant atmosphere and tasty grub, though you might want to keep an eye on the bill.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • Fantastic selection of craft beers, with over 200 bottled options, 29 on keg, and 6 cask ales – it's a real treat for beer enthusiasts.
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, making every visit feel warm and welcoming, just like chatting with old mates.
Areas for Improvement
  • Drinks can be a tad pricey, as one experience noted a beer and gin and tonic coming to over £23, which might sting the wallet compared to nearby spots.
  • Service isn't always spot-on; there was a mention of it being inattentive during a quieter visit, so it could vary depending on the time.

K Bar

93/100
K Bar is a delightful cocktail haven in South Kensington, where stellar drinks and genuine hospitality make for a memorable night out.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The cocktails are absolutely superb – creative, well-balanced, and tailored to your tastes, making every visit feel special.
  • The service is top-notch; the staff are incredibly friendly and go out of their way to make you feel welcome, like chatting with old mates.
Areas for Improvement
  • It doesn't open until 3 PM, which might feel a bit late if you're after an earlier tipple.
  • As it's part of a hotel, things can lean towards the upscale side, so prices might be a tad higher than your average local spot.

The Scarsdale Tavern, Kensington
5th
4.6(1587 reviews)
92/100
The Scarsdale Tavern in Kensington is a real gem of a pub, offering brilliant food, cracking beers, and a warm, characterful atmosphere that's perfect for a laid-back get-together, though it's worth noting a few minor niggles with food consistency.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly welcoming and make you feel right at home, like chatting with old mates.
  • The food is spot on – think delicious pub classics made with fresh, seasonal ingredients, and that fish 'n' chips comes highly recommended.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some dishes might not hit the mark every time, like the pan-fried salmon that was a tad dry in one visit.
  • The specials aren't always easy to spot, which could mean missing out on something special if you're not asking around.

  • The food is absolutely top-notch, with seasonal dishes and Sunday roasts that are fresh, delicious, and full of flavour
Areas for Improvement

The Hunter's Moon is a delightful pub in South Kensington, blending traditional countryside vibes with modern twists on British classics, making it a lovely spot for a relaxed meal or drink with mates.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is absolutely charming and welcoming, making it feel like a cosy countryside escape right in the heart of South Kensington.
  • The food is a real highlight, with delicious Sunday roasts and tasty starters like squid and croquettes that leave you wanting to come back for more.
Areas for Improvement
  • Portions can be on the small side, which might leave you feeling a bit short-changed, especially when you're paying a premium for the experience.
  • Service isn't always spot-on; there are times when the staff seem to vanish, making waits longer than you'd hope for.

The Harwood Arms
8th
4.6(1505 reviews)
92/100
The Harwood Arms is a gem of a Michelin-starred pub in Fulham, serving up top-notch British grub in a welcoming setting, though it's on the dearer side.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely brilliant, with a strong focus on seasonal British ingredients and game – it's Michelin-starred for a reason, and dishes like the venison and roasts are real highlights.
  • The staff are so friendly and helpful, always up for a bit of chat and making spot-on recommendations to enhance your meal.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get a bit pricey, so it's more for special occasions rather than a casual pint down the local.
  • Some dishes might be over-seasoned, like the fish in one review, which could throw off the flavours if you're sensitive to that.

The Cadogan Arms
9th
4.6(1600 reviews)
92/100
The Cadogan Arms is a cracking little pub with top-notch food and a warm vibe, ideal for a hearty meal, though it has a few quirks with the wine service.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely spot on – think delicious Sunday roasts, perfect scotch eggs, and classics like fish and chips that really hit the mark.
  • The staff are so friendly and welcoming; they go the extra mile, like surprising folks with a card for special occasions, which adds a lovely touch.
Areas for Improvement
  • The wine list can be a bit confusing, with things like unlabeled bottles that might leave you scratching your head.
  • Service with the drinks isn't always seamless – for instance, some staff might not be fully up to speed on opening corks, which can put a small dampener on things.

Elephant and Barrel
10th
4.6(870 reviews)
92/100
Elephant and Barrel is a charming London spot that mixes traditional pub vibes with delicious Indian twists, offering a relaxed and enjoyable experience for all.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is an absolute delight, blending classic British pub grub with vibrant Indian flavours that leave you wanting more.
  • The garden with its giant, animated elephant is a real standout – it's quirky, fun, and adds a magical touch to any visit.
Areas for Improvement
  • The menu focuses on specific Indian regions, so if you're after certain dishes like saag, you might find they're not on offer, which could disappoint.
  • It can be quite quiet on weekdays, which might not hit the spot if you're in the mood for a lively, buzzing atmosphere.

The Holland, Kensington
11th
4.6(201 reviews)
91/100
The Holland in Kensington is a cracking little gastropub with superb British grub and a cosy vibe, though it's not flawless – most visits are a delight, but keep an eye out for the odd off day.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely top-notch, with standout Sunday roasts that folks rave about – think perfectly cooked meats, delicious sides like miso roast potatoes, and great value at around £25.
  • It's a cosy and welcoming spot, ideal for a relaxed catch-up with mates or a date, with a warm atmosphere that makes you feel right at home.
Areas for Improvement
  • There can be inconsistencies with the food, like one disappointing Sunday roast where the meat was overcooked and the veg was dry – not what you'd hope for.
  • Wait times might drag on occasionally, as one person mentioned waiting over half an hour for their meal, which could put a dampener on things.

90/100
The Builders Arms is a welcoming Kensington pub with top-notch food and a cosy vibe, though service might not always be as attentive as you'd hope.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are absolutely lovely and incredibly attentive, with little touches like providing treats for dogs that make you feel right at home.
  • The food is delicious and full of flavour, offering great options for classic English dishes like Scotch eggs and cheesy fries that hit the spot.
Areas for Improvement
  • Service can be a bit hit or miss at times, with some experiences where staff didn't check back during the meal, leaving things feeling overlooked.
  • Certain dishes, like the Sunday roast, haven't always lived up to expectations for a few visitors, which is a shame for a traditional pub favourite.

90/100
The Abingdon is a charming family-run pub in Kensington that's all about great grub, a cracking wine selection, and a warm, friendly vibe – perfect for a relaxed catch-up with mates.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely spot-on – think hearty British classics with a touch of Mediterranean flair in summer, and that sticky toffee pudding is a real winner that keeps folks coming back.
  • The staff are so welcoming and attentive; it's like popping into a friend's place where they know your name and help you pick the perfect wine from their impressive list of over 200 bottles.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get a bit bustling at times, which might mean waits for a table if you don't book ahead, especially on busy evenings or bank holidays.
  • The location near the road means outside seating might not always be ideal due to occasional disruptions like construction, so you could end up indoors more than planned.

The Churchill Arms, Kensington
16th
4.5(7728 reviews)
90/100
The Churchill Arms in Kensington is a delightful historic pub that's full of character, serving up tasty Thai grub and fine ales in a flower-draped setting that's perfect for a relaxed pint or meal.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is absolutely charming, with the pub dripping in flowers outside and packed with fascinating memorabilia inside – it's like stepping into a piece of London's history.
  • They serve up some cracking Thai food that's been wowing folks for over 35 years, alongside a great selection of real ales and ciders that really hit the spot.
Areas for Improvement
  • Service can sometimes feel a tad rushed or unhelpful, like when you're after a bit of advice on the menu and it comes across as 'you're on your own' – not always the warmest chat.
  • It gets packed quickly, especially around mealtimes, so you might find yourself in and out without much lingering if it's busy, or needing to book ahead to secure a spot.

The Mall Tavern is a buzzing London gem with cracking food and a cosy vibe, though it does get crowded and costs a bit more than your average pub.

Areas for Improvement

  • Prices are on the steeper side, like £75 for two roasts and a couple of pints, so it might not suit if you're watching the pennies.

Areas for Improvement
  • Service can be a tad slow at times, so if you're in a rush, it might not be the best choice for a quick bite.

The Hayden Pub & Rooms is a delightful Notting Hill gem, blending top-notch food, cosy stays, and a warm atmosphere that makes it a go-to for a relaxed pint or overnight escape.
Pros and Cons
What's Great

  • The rooms are cosy and well-equipped, with air conditioning and a welcoming feel, ideal for a comfortable stay right in the heart of Notting Hill.
Areas for Improvement
  • The rooms are only accessible via stairs, which might not suit everyone, especially if you're travelling with heavy bags or have mobility concerns.
  • As a moderate-priced spot, it could feel a tad on the expensive side for everyday visits, though the quality makes it worth it for special occasions.

25th
4.5(809 reviews)
90/100
The Cleveland Arms is a cracking little pub in London with a warm, community feel and top-notch food, though it's worth keeping an eye on those sneaky service charges.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, always up for a chat and making you feel right at home – shout out to the manager who really goes the extra mile.
  • The food is spot on, with standout dishes like the Sunday roast and chicken Kiev that are packed with flavour and served piping hot.
Areas for Improvement
  • Watch out for the automatic 17% service charge that's added to your bill – it can catch you off guard if you're not paying close attention.
  • The bar area can get pretty packed, which might make it a bit of a squeeze if you're after a more laid-back drink without the crowds.

Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely brilliant, especially the Sunday roast which comes with juicy meats, perfectly roasted veggies, and those extra Yorkshire puddings that you won't find everywhere else.
  • The staff are so welcoming and friendly, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get a bit crowded during peak times, so you might have to wait for a table if you're popping in on a busy Sunday.
  • The menu sticks mostly to traditional pub classics, which is charming but might not excite if you're after something more adventurous or modern.

The Queens Arms
34th
4.4(2927 reviews)
88/100
The Queens Arms is a charming, understated pub in South Kensington that's spot on for good food and drinks, though it has a few niggles like steep prices and smaller portions.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely spot on – think delicious twists on British classics like fish and chips or a hearty Sunday roast, with plenty of positive feedback on the flavours.
  • It's got a great selection of drinks, from cask ales and craft beers to fine wines, making it a top choice for a proper pint or a cheeky cocktail.
Areas for Improvement
  • Drinks can be on the pricey side, with some pints reaching £7.25, which might make you think twice if you're watching your wallet.
  • Portions aren't always generous, like the vegan roast or pasta dishes that feel a bit small for the price, leaving you wanting more.

88/100
The King's Head in Earl's Court is a cosy Fuller's pub with cracking food and a welcoming vibe, ideal for a laid-back evening, though prices and service might need a bit of watching.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely spot on, with British classics like fish and chips and sticky toffee pudding getting rave reviews – they're proper tasty and made with fresh, seasonal ingredients.
  • The staff are a delight; think friendly, funny folks who make you feel right at home, like that chap Carl who turned a meal into a memorable chat.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some dishes feel a bit overpriced, like that £16 Greek salad that's more of a side than a main – it might leave you wanting more bang for your buck.
  • Service can be on the slow side at times, which might frustrate you if you're in a hurry for that next round or meal.

Ale&Pie is a charming traditional pub in Earl's Court that's got a solid reputation for great beer and tasty grub, though it's not without a few niggles like pricing and space.
Pros and Cons

Areas for Improvement
  • It can get quite busy, particularly on weekends, which might mean waiting for a table or struggling to find space if you pop in spontaneously.
  • The kitchen closes a bit early on weekdays, so if you're planning a late-night bite, you might miss out on the full menu options.

  • The selection of cask ales, craft beers, and fine wines is spot on, making it a top choice for beer enthusiasts.
Areas for Improvement
  • Service can be a bit inconsistent; sometimes it's spot on, but other times staff might seem a tad uninterested or annoyed, like when asking for recommendations.
  • Ordering at the bar means you're doing a fair bit yourself, which isn't always ideal if you're after more attentive help.

The Hoop & Toy is a welcoming Kensington pub with cracking food, cheerful service, and a buzzing vibe for sports fans, though it's worth noting the occasional hiccups with table bookings.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely spot on, with the steak and ale pie and sticky toffee pudding getting rave reviews – proper comforting classics that leave you scraping the plate clean.
  • The staff are a delight, especially folks like Miguel who's got a great handle on the menu and makes you feel right at home with their friendly service.
Areas for Improvement
  • Table reservations can be a bit of a faff, as it's hard to know when they'll free up, which might leave you hanging if you're just nipping in for a quick drink.
  • Not every dish hits the mark – the fish and chips was a letdown for some, so it might pay to stick to the crowd-pleasers.

The Troubadour is a charming London spot blending history, live music, and tasty grub, making it a top pick for a relaxed evening, though it might not shine with bigger groups.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • It's got this rich history as a live music venue, hosting legends like Bob Dylan and Adele, which really adds a special charm to the place.
  • The atmosphere is wonderfully cosy and unique, with a secret garden and a vibe that's perfect for enjoying live gigs or just relaxing with friends.
Areas for Improvement
  • There was a disappointing dining experience reported with a larger group, so it might not handle big crowds as smoothly as smaller gatherings.
  • Based on that one review, the overall experience can sometimes fall short, especially if you're expecting flawless service every time.

Bar 190 in South Kensington is a lovely spot for enjoying well-crafted cocktails and a welcoming vibe, but watch out for occasional service slip-ups that can sour the experience.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The cocktails are generally fantastic, with a fine selection that impresses and leaves you wanting more, especially for whiskey chats or classic mixes like the espresso martini when it's done right.
  • The staff can be incredibly welcoming and friendly, making you feel right at home with great conversations and attentive service that includes little extras like snacks or even taking photos.
Areas for Improvement
  • Service can be hit or miss, with some experiences feeling quite appalling due to rude or inattentive staff, which really puts a damper on the night.
  • Drinks might come across as overpriced for what you get, especially if they're not up to scratch, like a disappointing espresso martini that didn't live up to expectations despite a discount.

The Greyhound in Kensington is a delightful traditional pub with a cracking atmosphere and good grub, though it's worth noting the occasional slip-up with food.

The Goat Tavern is a delightful historic pub in Kensington that's all about warm vibes, solid food, and a welcoming atmosphere—ideal for a relaxed catch-up with mates after a stroll in the park.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The historic ambiance is absolutely charming—it's an 18th-century gem in the heart of Kensington, perfect for soaking up a bit of London's rich past while enjoying a pint.
  • The food is spot on; think tasty traditional pub grub with plenty of options for everyone, including vegan, vegetarian, and non-alcoholic choices, making it a welcoming spot for all sorts of groups.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get quite popular, especially in a bustling area like Kensington, so you might find it a tad crowded during peak times, though grabbing a table isn't usually a problem if you time it right.
  • With moderate prices, it might feel a bit steep for a simple pint and bite if you're on a tight budget, but it's fair value for the quality and location.

The Britannia in Kensington is a charming spot for a pint and a bite, with brilliant food and a warm welcome, though service can occasionally let it down.

  • The food is absolutely spot on – especially the fish and chips, which are fresh, crispy, and a real highlight for a classic pub meal.
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and accommodating, always going the extra mile to make you feel welcome, like sorting out a table for a big group at short notice.
Areas for Improvement
  • Service can be a bit hit or miss at times, with some confusion over orders or drinks not coming out quite right when it's busy.
  • It might feel a tad underwhelming if you're after something super quiet, as it can get lively, though one person mentioned enjoying it not being overcrowded.

The Duke of Clarence is a lovely, traditional pub in South Kensington that's spot on for enjoying great food, friendly vibes, and live sports, though it might not suit families with little ones.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is absolutely cosy and welcoming, making it feel like a proper neighbourhood spot where you can unwind with a pint.
  • The food is spot on – think cracking fish and chips, juicy burgers, and what many say is the best Sunday roast in Kensington; it's all made with top-notch British ingredients.
Areas for Improvement
  • It might not be the best choice if you're with very young children, as there's no dedicated kids' menu or changing facilities in the bathrooms.
  • While the pub's great for adults, some might find the focus on sports and traditional pub fare a bit limited if you're after something more varied or family-oriented.

  • It's got a fantastic selection of beers, wines, and cocktails, making it a brilliant spot for a casual drink or something a bit more special.
Areas for Improvement
  • Service can sometimes fall short, like when a booking isn't honoured and the team seems more caught up in their own conversations than looking after guests.
  • It gets pretty busy, particularly in the evenings, so you might end up disappointed if you don't plan ahead and secure a table.

The Duke of Wellington
67th
4.3(2095 reviews)
86/100
The Duke of Wellington is a charming Notting Hill gem – a cosy pub with cracking food, friendly vibes, and a prime spot near Portobello Road, though it's not flawless.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is absolutely spot on – it's a cosy, vibrant spot in the heart of Notting Hill, perfect for soaking up that classic London pub vibe.
  • The food is a real winner; think generous portions of delicious British classics like fish and chips or a cracking Sunday roast, all made with fresh, local ingredients.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some dishes can be hit or miss; for instance, the fish and tartar sauce didn't quite live up to expectations in one visit, which was a bit of a letdown.
  • The music doesn't always match the pub's charming vibe, as it felt a tad off in a couple of reviews, potentially disrupting that relaxed feel.

Hux in Kensington is a lively bar with a cracking atmosphere, stellar cocktails, and live music that hits the mark, though the occasional booking mishap keeps it from being flawless.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere at Hux is absolutely buzzing – think live music, a singer and band that really get the crowd going, making it a perfect spot for a sophisticated yet fun evening out.
  • Their cocktails are creative and delicious, with a thematic twist that pairs brilliantly with the vibe, ideal for anyone wanting to try something a bit different.
Areas for Improvement
  • There can be issues with bookings and promotions, such as not honouring happy hour deals as promised, which might leave you feeling a bit short-changed.
  • Based on one experience, communication around timings and offers isn't always spot on, so it's worth double-checking to avoid any disappointments.

The Elm is a delightful little pub with cracking beers and a welcoming vibe, though it has its off moments with service and sports options.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The beer selection is absolutely fantastic, with unique options like Czech and Korean brews that make it worth a special trip.
  • The interior is small but beautifully done, and the bathrooms are spotlessly clean – a real treat compared to some other spots.
Areas for Improvement
  • One experience mentioned unwelcoming service from a staff member, including feeling profiled when asked for ID, which could put a dampener on things.
  • It doesn't carry major sports channels like Sky or BT, so if you're keen on watching football beyond the FA Cup, you might be out of luck.

The Gloucester Arms is a lovely traditional pub in South Kensington, offering cracking food and a welcoming vibe for enjoying drinks and sports, though it's not without a couple of niggles.
Pros and Cons

  • Service is warm and attentive, with staff who are quick and friendly, really adding to that cosy pub feel.
Areas for Improvement

The Courtfield in Earls Court is a cosy traditional pub with cracking food and a welcoming atmosphere, ideal for enjoying a pint and some live action – though watch out for the odd service slip-up.
Pros and Cons

  • The food is a real treat; think perfectly cooked Full English breakfasts and classic pub grub that's generous on portions and hits the spot, especially for a hearty meal before catching a show.
Areas for Improvement

The Anglesea Arms is a charming historic pub in South Kensington with top-notch food and a welcoming atmosphere, but watch out for occasional service slip-ups that can mar an otherwise lovely outing.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The historical charm is absolutely delightful; it's a traditional pub dating back to 1712, right on the street where Charles Dickens once lived, making it feel like a step back in time.
  • Their food is a real winner – with a 1 AA Rosette for culinary excellence, you can expect cracking dishes like an amazing Scotch egg and a bloody awesome Bloody Mary to keep things tasty and satisfying.
Areas for Improvement
  • Service can be a bit of a letdown at times; some folks have waited ages just to get noticed, and there have been reports of staff being dismissive, which puts a dampener on the experience.
  • Seating arrangements might frustrate you if you're with a group, as tables don't always get allocated fairly, leading to a few grumbles from visitors.

Pros and Cons
What's Great

  • Prices are really reasonable for London, making it an affordable spot to grab drinks and eats without breaking the bank.
Areas for Improvement
  • It seems like the place has shifted from being a proper bar to more of a canteen or Indian restaurant, which might disappoint if you're after a traditional pub experience.
  • Operating hours are a bit limited, typically from late afternoon till evening and not open every day, so it could be tricky to catch if you're planning a spontaneous night out.
