Harden's survey result
Summary
“A winner if only for people-watching” – “the great and the good-looking of Notting Hill gather in the beige but tasteful surroundings” of this year-old pub, whose popularity is such that it’s regularly “heaving”. “It’s not that cheap”, but all reviews applaud Owen Kenworthy’s “top-end pub good”, from an “interesting menu” of “reinvented pub classics”. Top Menu Tips – mince on toast is a staple here; “bar snacks of crab and cheese on toast are a delicious counterpoint to the drinks”.
Summary
This “newly opened pub with excellent food and vibe” is the latest iteration of a Notting Hill tavern built in 1872 and now tastefully buffed up. Jimi Famurewa of the Evening Standard gave chef Owen Kenworth a big thumbs-up for his “gutsy, sneakily creative food”. It is also one of very few pubs to offer Pilates classes.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK.
