Very nice menu. A little bit noisy inside but the staff is friendly , you don't have to wait too long to get a table, and the pancakes are as fluffy as they should be!
Waiters are super friendly .. Dinner was unexpectedly great ❤️ Greek plate and calamari as appetizers and see bass with special risotto and tortellini both were good.
Get the jumbo breakfast and share with a friend, less than a tenner and you get a full English breakfast plus pancakes and fruit ! More than enough for two
Fantastic breakfasts and lunches , amazing steak , great cocktails and relaxed atmosphere
Brilliant service and exellent fish . Took the best fish and chips ever
Balans Burger , Crab Linguine , Quesadilla , Calamari etc
The burgers and the linguini was perfect🤗
Great brunch ! Eggs done perfectly to my specifications. Strong coffee , nice staff !
Egg Benedict is 10/10 👌🏼
Falafel wrap 👍
English breakfast is delicious, generous portions and cooked 'just right'. Very yummy. I was not impressed by the espresso though.
The food in this place is excellent. For me it's either steak and poached eggs for breaky or Red thai curry for dins. Starters are good too.
The people that work here are really nice, plus they have Kensington's only American pancakes 👍
Kinda dark in the front but really light and cozy in the back. Free Wifi and nice service.
Very good service , the food is nice, 7/10
Whenever I have mates and colleagues coming from abroad I always get them here for Full English - jet lag cure
Try the daily specials they are always good value and use the best possible ingredients
Kale salad - great light lunch !
The goat cheese gnocchi was to die for.
Chicken Walford salad is really great.
American pancakes is the way to go .... Be easy on the Americans w small children - probably majorly jet lagged ! ;)
Highly recommend their Full English Breakfast
They make you ASK for the set menu . It's a great bargain!
Friendly service , decent drinks.
Rump Lamb steak was awful, it was hard to chew, but rice in that dish was amazing.
Egg Benedict is superb
Love the full English and virgin mary😀
The duck is lovely. So is the fish&chips.
Best hangover dish? The Quesadilla !
Eggs in hell 👍
Great pancakes . American style
Best brunch in London! Try the American pancakes .

Corned beef hash is awesome!
Best full English.

Very nice bread and olives
Awesome pancakes
Overpriced drinks - fits in with the area but other establishments offer better quality at similar prices
The food AND coffee are awesome. The person who hated the coffee was probably an American who loves weak see through Dunkin donuts coffee . This is real good dark European coffee
Perfect margaritas
Delicious starters :-)
The coffee is rubbish not because it's weak I hate weak coffee as much as burnt coffee and it's definitely burnt
Try Oreo key lime for dessert
BBQ chicken sandwich is a winner
Come for the pancakes , but avoid the coffee
Biggest chips I've ever seen...
Enjoying the eggs benedict !
Really great virgin mary's and the apple, beatroot & goats cheese salad is ace. - Gareth Clayfield
Perfect for a small breakfast, terrace available for the sunny days. Accessible prices - Paul Loison
The advocado on toast with honey, pistache and cinnamon is my favourite! - Pieter de Meer
Such a great museum. Entry is free and it’s appropriate for adults and children. They’ll often put on exhibitions that should be booked in advance. The shops are so tempting and amazing for gifts. - Jos Jones
Cold in the winter with a snappy wind that comes across the pond, even so its so beautiful here in all seasons my favourite place to take my daily exercise - Steve Townley
Huge. Very quiet, good for picnics and chill. Great to share with friends. - Felipe Iglesias
