Fouberts in Kensington and Chelsea

Incredible food, served quickly. Would thoroughly recommend and will come again. Would suggest booking in advance to avoid disappointment.

Outstanding food, great and quick service, would suggest booking in advance to avoid disappointment. Will return in the future.

This unpretenscious family run restaurant serves old fashioned and exquisite pasta dishes. I love their meatball spaghetti, but my most favourite is the pesto pasta with chicken. I think it is a good, casual dining place for families, students, friends and couples. They are also open for coffee/drinks inbetween the meal times and their coffees are, imho, better than the ones that's served in the popular chains. The only downside is that although I found the female staff lovely and delightful, a couple of male staff I encountered (may be one of them is a chef?) did not behave like they were really glad to have customers.

A Gem on Kensington High Street. We came by chase as I had booked the wrong place to eat so popped in. Really nice freshly prepared food, with taste and cooked to perfection. We had 3 in the party- 3 glasses of white wine- 2x Lasagne 1x chicken with Penne pasta in a spicy tomato sauce. Threes desserts were 2 scoops of ice cream (many to choose from) . We were off to the Royal Albert Hall to a concert by The Royal Marine Band. This is perfectly located as you pass this on Kensington High Street on your way. Give it a go (£93) was the bill and this included a service charge (£10) and the service was very good

Very good restaurant. Nice ambiance, and very good food. I wanted to send a photo of my pizza, but after tasting it, I forgot de toke a photo and ate it all. I definitely recommend and Bon Appetit!

We've been eating here for years before going to the Albert Hall. As always we were warmly welcomed and had a good meal. Although they no longer do salads there is still a wide choice. However, beware that the rose wine by the glass is much more expensive than red or white.

Pleasant atmosphere, kind and attentive staff, and great food in large quantities. My wife and I had a great experience, and you will too!

A lunchtime visit, we were the only customers on a midweek day. the owners were sitting in the window. it's a big restaurant and we felt lost. NHS Covid App info and warnings signage still on walls looking very worse for wear and cannot understand why they have not been removed. The food was tasty and no complaints, but a basic glass of wine was £11, and overpriced. whilst eating the elderly gentleman who owned the place sat 2 tables from us playing videos on his phone quite loudly, and he didn't seem to care about disturbing us. also the lady owner welcomed a friend to sit with her in the window table and they loudly discussed medical issues which my wife clearly heard, so with just 2 wines and mains we decided this was not the ambience or atmosphere we expected...the owners seemed totally unaware of us until we paid.

I'd love to be able to tell you how quintessentially Italian this eatery is, how the atmosphere is relaxing and welcoming, but unfortunately an angry little man got in the way of all that! We phoned through a table for 7 during the day, even securing a high chair, we arrived at 6:45 and before even two of us could enter this aging mini Mario look-alike angrily told us we could not eat there, that he gave our table to another party of 7 and we should move on and find somewhere else. Enquiring further, and he petulantly kicked towards a table suitable for 3 saying 'this is what we have free'. In hospitality, you need to be hospitable, it's kind of the name of the game. So 4 adults and 3 kids kicked to the streets in an area where unless you book you're going hungry. Petulant, aggressive, short tempered, rude, abrasive, disappointing, lacklustre and horrendous. Put these words in a blender and that is what you'll find on the menu here!

Turned up 15 mins early for a table which we had booked over the phone several hours before for 7 people. Before we got in the door a man was shouting that they were full, explained that we had booked to be told they gave away the table. Rude and ignorant, avoid.

Absolutely awful, we turned up after being in the rain with the kids. We were 15 minutes early to have a nice meal. Turned out that didn't happen!! We had pre booked a table and the owner had given it away. He was very rude and basically ushered us out, would not recommend!!! Maybe the owners could learn a thing or two about good customer service........

We had lunch in this little gem of a restaurant on Saturday, famished after a very long walk in Hyde Park. The home made dishes we chose (meatballs & spaghetti, Penne sauce Siciliana followed by apple pie and ice cream) had the delicious flavours of Italy. We were made to feel very welcome and felt very happy, liked the decor and music too! We hope to return when we are back in the capital.

My friend & I had an extremely long tour day, and she wasn't physically able to venture out any further to eat and I was too tired to shop & cook. I decided to peruse the area for food that would make her (very picky eater) happy. I came upon Fouberts and couldn't have been more blessed. Quiet & soothing atmosphere, wonderful ladies took care of me, quick service (take-out), the food was awesome and there was plenty for several meals! My friend was so thankful, as was I. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

In spite of the French sounding name it is an Italian restaurant. Dropped in with the kids on impulse and driven by hunger. Rather empty and unassuming. The food on the other hand was great especially the grilled sea bass and cod. The potatoes were superb. Prices were reasonable though service was a bit underwhelming. Well worth a visit.

We visited this restaurant twice. It was quiet with not too many people in it on either evening. The food is Italian and we had two nice meals. The decor is dated and the music also. It could do with a revamp. The service is very quick and the food was tasty.

Nothing better than to be greeted by a couple that appeared invested in the food and service. My wife and I were treated to very flavorful entrees and finished it off with hot apple pie that had a perfect hint of cloves. We will go...

The cover is not the book! From outside looks quite plain and menu posted outside might seem limited but honestly... Less is More! Fabulous food, and I was welcomed and made to feel at home as I was on my own. I had the Veal...

A very nice Italian restaurant not far from the tube station. I, ordered the code dish, cooked in Italian style. The presentation was an eye catcher the cod was served with two vegetables. The cod was cooked to perfection with a tomato sauce with olives...

Poor. There are about 6 main courses on the daily specials list but three had sold out at 6.30 pm! No sea bass, no seafood risotto. The chicken Milanese was cooked fresh but came with three slices of fried potatoes and five French beans. I...

Popped in when passing for an early evening meal before a show at the Albert Hall. It was quiet at that time. The staff were friendly and the food was excellent. Very tasty Linguine with Salmon and partner had Tortellini. Very reasonable prices. Can't comment...

My family and I were so happy to happen across this most wonderful restaurant. We were welcomed in with open arms and the host led us to a well prepared table. The spacious dining area made us feel instantly relaxed. We didn't feel rushed at...

I’m not one to write reviews really yet I’m still sat in the restaurant and had to pop one on before I leave incase I forget. The carbonara was the best I’ve ever had and I’ve had quite a few! The chicken with creamy sauce...

Customer service was on point. We enjoyed the food and the terrace was cute with a nice view. The atmosphere was relaxing. I had the Salmon/cream cheese ( sandwich) and my babe had the Italian board. We also tried their hot chocolate and it was...

I had salmon linguine which is probably the best I’ve had - the bits of salmon were very big which is nice. The prices are good for the area, mine was £10 and pizzas are less. The waitresses were a bit keen and we had...

Great food and good service too, it been long time we never had such good quality food in london, it make my day bright :) thank to the chef and all the staffs Thank you

food was good but it took a while, server was very nice. Can tecommend the ciabattas. The street is obviously a bit loud though

I went to the restaurant the day before yesterday on 12th July 2020 and I ordered the Linguine Salmon for £10, the salmon looked weird and didn't seem normal and as soon as I had finished eating I was overcome with intense pain in my...

Have been going to this restaurant for 30 years or more. And nothing changes. Still a great pasta menu and the best ice cream in West London. If you want the family run touch this is it

Fantastic ice cream, value for money , service and location... We've been going to Fouberts for ice cream over 15 years. Its an Italian restaurant on High Street Kensington just across from the park. It has been a firm family favourite with us for ice...

On the afternoon of Sunday 8 December my Dad insisted on going into this place on Kensinton High Street. There were other places to eat, even a McDonalds further down the road. This place seemed empty apart from a man on his smartphone near the...

A agradables restaurantes italianos con excelente personal de la casa. El plato de carne antipasto de arranque fue fantástico sabor y valor. El plato principal de carne era de gran calidad, pero su definición de medio era más cercana a la mía. Lo como poco cocinado para mi gusto, pero todavía estaba bueno. Mi esposa envió la suya y yo había terminado mi comida antes de que reapareciera la suya.

Great food and home made ice cream is a must, its a regular when in Kensington the owner is a very nice guy

Very welcoming with a relaxed atmosphere and excellent service with delicious food at a reasonable price.

We had a lovely simple meal with great service and minimum fuss. It was very easy on the pocket too, with great portions!

I have no idea why this restaurant isn’t full to bursting . We had a really good meal, the staff were great and you could hear yourself speak. Excellent evening.

Nous avons été bien accueillis et la nourriture était bonne. C'est un sympathique petit restaurant. Le personnel et gentil et la carte assez simple mais de bons plats.

Nicely located on Kensington High Street. Simple place, the staff are a bit over bearing and the food was very average.

Qué hallazgo fue este auténtico restaurante italiano. No entiendo por qué no está lleno de clientes. Auténtico italiano. Las pizzas son grandes, de base fina, pero no duras, crujientes o quemadas en los bordes. Los ingredientes están bien equilibrados. Nuestra mesa recibió aceite de oliva con chiles y un molinillo de pimienta molido para agregar a las pizzas.

Ich bin durch Zufall auf Fouberts gestoßen und es war ein echter Glücksfall. Sehr gutes italienisches Essen (ich hatte die Tortelloni) und super Eis, zu einem für Londoner Verhältnisse wirklich guten Preis. Außerdem sehr nettes Personal. Eine ganz klare Empfehlung von mir.

Browsing our way through menus outside restaurants along Kensington High Street on our way back to the Hilton Olympia, we were greeted by the owner of Foubert's at the door if his restaurant and urged to come in. We hesitated because the restaurant seemed almost empty, but something about the owner's manner was so sincere we decided to have dinner there. No regrets whatsoever. The table settings were very basic but the service and food were like eating with family in a Sicilian home. We ordered two mixed green salads followed by a lasagna mamma mia and a spaghetti Napoli and finished with a tiramisu and a pairing of gelati with biscuits. Molto delizioso! We accompanied our meal with still and sparkling water and we had no complaints about the bill. It may sound odd, but we were also left with the feeling that the owner and employees genuinely appreciated our business - which is something does not always sense in restaurants. Definitely recommended.

Stumbled across this little place and do not regret entering and eating the beautiful food, full of flavour and well presented. Lovely staff who could not have been more helpful. The menu was diverse and reasonably priced. Big tick from our party of 4.

Por lo general, reservamos los de Verdi cuando vamos al Albert Hall - Mark Knopfler esta vez. Pero no lo hice esta vez. Así que mi esposa y yo caminamos desde RAH hasta Kensington High Street y este fue uno de los primeros lugares. Se estaba anunciando 2 cursos para 10. 95 así que entramos. Nos sentamos a mitad de camino después de las escaleras a los baños. Buena mesa 2 camareras muy eficientes tomaron nuestros pedidos. Fui a empezar calamares al igual que mi esposa. Muy buen tamaño y sabroso. Para los principales tuve hamburguesa y patatas fritas. La hamburguesa era grande y sabrosa, con mucha lechuga y tomate en un bollo de brioche. Mi esposa tenía un plato de pasta de hongos - delicioso. Los dos tomamos café. Y también nos trajeron 2 vasos de agua sin preguntar. Los baños estaban muy limpios y el servicio y la relación calidad-precio excelente. Volveremos seguro.

No dejes que la facia te desanime. No estoy seguro de que haya sido repintado en décadas!

Acompañado por un bocado rápido en el camino a un espectáculo en el Royal Albert Hall, que está a pocos minutos a pie. Parece estar dirigido por una familia, muy agradable de comer en un lugar que no es una cadena, y los precios eran buenos. Realmente disfruté de la comida. Había 3 de nosotros, uno vegetariano, uno tenía pescado, el otro carne, todos perfectamente hechos con verduras frescas. Volveré a comer aquí la próxima vez que estemos en la zona.

Bon, ce n'est pas un restaurant gastronomique. Il faut remettre le Fouberts dans le contexte de hight street Kensington. Après s'être fait refouler de trois autres restaurants, on se retrouve devant ce petit établissement simple qui se veut un peu italien. C'est une table pas trop chère qui permet de se restaurer sans trop se ruiner. Le personnel est sympathique et attentif. On peut trouver des pizzas et des burgers. Le plats coûtera minimum 7 livres hors pourboire. Plus cher qu'un sandwich mais on est assis et il y a des toilettes...contrairement aux kebabs et autres sandwicheries. Ça dépanne.

Bylismy bardzo glodni iszukalismy miejsca by odpocząc i dobrze zjeść.

Very cute Italian restaurant on a busy street, went there for a quick bite and really enjoyed the food old fashion but not a tourist trap,

Se volete una buona pizza questo è il posto dove NON andare. 3 pizze surgelate portate dopo più di mezz'ora, anche se a detta del proprietario sono fatte sul momento che vista la qualità mi sembra ancora più grave!

Comí regularmente en Fouberts en Kensington High Street. Este es el mejor restaurante italiano en Londres. Toda la comida es fresca y cocinada a pedido. La comida es muy auténtica y una gran relación calidad-precio.

if its very average meal in a restaurant with little character that you're after then this joint's for you!

Encontré este lugar cerca del mediodía después de caminar a través de Hyde Park y Kensington Palace. Tuve calamares y mi familia tuvo una hamburguesa y atún ensalada. Los calamares era pobre, obviamente solo un paquete congelado. Sin embargo mi familia parecía disfrutar de su comida. El precio era normal y era equivalente a la calidad de la comida.

I had vaguely heard about this restaurant. As I fancied Italian food we decided to try it. The first surprise was that we were the only customers. This seemed strange specially as it was a Friday evening. Nevertheless we stayed and we were glad we did. The food was good and the service was good too. The prices were reasonable for a Kensington restaurant and we have noted this place for further visits.

Era Domingo almuerzo y necesitábamos un 'RÁPIDO' Italiano antes de salir para la estación de Euston y a casa. Nuestro servidor, Bella, era realmente agradable y muy servicial y lo hizo para la comida bastante mediocre, así que gracias Bella y buena suerte con su un niveles! Compartimos una ensalada de atún que, sin unos núcleos independientes, el maíz o dos de pimienta plateado rojo y un olivo o dos han sido muy buenas; que sirven para nosotros que era aburrido. Nuestros platos principales, pasta con pesto y Lasaña Mamma mia, estaban bien, pero nada para morirse y muy caro. El más finas (francés) vino tinto de la casa también era caro y muy aburrido. No, no volvería.

I happened upon this little place in Kensington on my first day in London, and had a light, late lunch there. I had a green salad with tuna on it and a pot of hot tea. It was served with a nice bread on the side and was very reasonably priced. Some workmen (wearing yellow vests) were finishing up coffee at a nearby table and speaking Italian to each other and to the waitress. This is London, a truly international city.

Visited on a Tuesday evening as wanted a non chain option. On arrival had a warm welcome but on sitting down we almost chose to leave. The specials were written on a dirty scrap of paper, we had to ask for a drink menu. But chose to stay ordering the anti pasta to share then the pasta gamberoni and arrabiatta. The food was absolutely delicious from the warm bread to the perfectly spiced arrabiatta. I’d certainly visit again but to attract more custom they should just work on the added extras

We enjoyed acouple of nice 'english' breakfasts here whilst staying locally. The food was tasty and enjoyable. Good value and served by pleasant waiter. Would return.

Nice lunch they served a lunchtime special for £6'50 which was good with several choices.Nice staff restaurant was clean and nicely decorated.

It is always a pleasure to return to Foubert's, our very favourite Italian in London.

We came here for a quick coffee and dessert. The staff were very welcoming and the music was great. They had a nice selection of ice cream as well. The food menu looked good too with very reasonable prices as well.

Stopped off for a light lunch before visiting kensington palace. Good service, food and friendly staff. Would recommend.

Dropped in by accident as another Italian restaurant a few doors away closed early because it was bank holiday Monday. And sooooo glad they did. Amazing food and very attentive staff. What a gem.

En un principio estaba impedido por la falta de clientes, pero como quería algo italiano y tenían una oferta especial, le di una oportunidad.

Servicio auténtico y comida. Bien vale la pena una visita, especialmente teniendo en cuenta que cobran normal y no precios de Kensington.

Fue relativamente tranquila cuando mi esposo y yo llegamos. Sólo había tres mesas ocupadas sobre otros.

Il locale è molto carino: informale, ma allo stesso tempo, accogliente.

Cibo ottimo, locale accogliente, buon rapporto qualità prezzo. Consiglio la bistecca alla griglia. Portate abbondanti.

Had walked all day and strolled into Fouberts mid afternoon. Great pasta and Chianti . Staff were lovely. Very attentive

Da fuori non gli si da molto, dentro é carino e niente di più, ma la vera sorpresa é che ci hanno fatto una colazione inglese completa davvero buona, abbondante ed economica. Bravi, consigliato per la colazione! (sono molto cortesi, ma non sprizzano di simpatia;-)

Surely there is no finer Italian in London than Foubert's (hardly an Italian name) ?The best freshly squeezed orange juice this side of Seville. It is a closely kept secret. So I tell you in confidence - which means you may only tell other people one at a time !Situated at 17, Kensington High Street, almost opposite the Royal Garden Hotel. A personal favourite is spaghetti bolognese, preferably with penne. Truly wonderful.Don't be put off by the exterior decor - you come to Foubert's for the food. The restaurant is ideally situated for a pre concert dinner before walking along to the RAH.Just spectacular.Hayling Seagoon

Stopped here for a snack served great sandwiches and the coffee was really good, as was the value. Would definately vist again when in the area

Locale carino sulla High Street Kensington, cucina e menù tipicamente italiano, preparato con cura, e rispetto per gli ingredienti e la tradizione; antipasti, primi e secondi di carne e di pesce ; ideale per pranzi veloci ma anche per cene, magari a base di pesce ( ottimo) . Buon rapporto qualità/prezzo . Personale italiano, gentile e divertente .... un piccolo angolo d'Italia a Londra !

Walking from Kensington to Notting hill looking for a breakfast stop we stumbled upon this gem of a place. Clearly a great evening haunt it also serves REAL Italian coffee and a lip smackingly good full english breakfast. Lovely service great atmosphere and super food - GO THERE worth a visit probably at any time of day or evening.

Traditional italian food, average decor, good location, friendly service Recommendation: Give it a try!

Last year we attended the royal Albert hall festival of remembrance, once finished we walked along Kensington high street to find somewhere to have a drink.Although not eating, we were welcomed in to have a drink. We taken to the back of the restaurant and seated.This year we did the same.We were warmly welcomed and seated at the back of the restaurant.Thank you... this may well become our annual post show venue.

Good pizza, quick seevice, good beer, just come in. Have a food, free wifi, good service, family running restaurant, good sweetnes and ice cream.

Definitely worth a try. This restaurant relocated from Chiswick High Road some years ago. Good service, authentic Italian food and great Italian Ice Cream.Vast choice of food.

Had avery early start last week to do some work in the Royal Albert Hall once finished I needed some breakfast. Walked down towards Kensington and found Fouberts. Had salmon & scrambled eggs plus a latte for a very reasonable £10.25 good quantity and the salmon was good, the egg was a little bit runny but tasty enough.

A group of us ate here after a concert at the Albert Hall. The £9.95 two-course set menu had three choices each of starter and main course, such as forchetta, calamari, chicken salad and vegetarian pasta. And there's a wide menu of other dishes a la carte. The fixed-price menu is basic but is excellent value.

We have eaten here on many occasions, dinner lunch or snacking. The food is fantastic, never had any reason to complain, lovely staff, very clean and not expensive, £60.00 three course meal for two with drinks, make sure you try the ice cream.

Second time we have had a meal here before seeing a show at the Royal Albert Hall. Great wee Italian restaurant with lovely staff. The food was served fast and was delicious both times. I think we will extend our little tradition and pop in again next time we visit the RAH.

We found this Italian after a matinee at the Royal Albert hall, we had two children with us and the food was delicious, service was great. Perfect!

Venu ici à 13h30 pour manger, accueil agréable, service rapide, pizza sans grande prétention mais bonne, peux mieux sur la quantité (encore un peu faim à la fin du repas). Convient très bien après une grosse matinée de visite. Cadre reposant, prix correcte. Recommande sans problème.

Visited early in the afternoon after visiting Kensington palace. Very quiet due to the time, was served quickly. Restaurant was a little cold but no doubt would be warm when there's more people eating. When we arrived there was one other table eating and then us. Food came quickly, good portions, Parmesan cheese left so we could help ourselves and tasty. Free WiFi also!No complaints for the staff. I prefer it when staff are not overly attentive and I am left to enjoy my meal instead of constant interruptions and we were allowed to do this at fouberts. The staff were polite but left us to enjoy our meal. Would return

Easy to walk past but you must stop and eat here. The restaurant is clean and tidy and the staff efficient and friendly. This was my second visit and it was just as good 2nd time around. Had the chicken and bacon ciabatta and it was quick, fresh and tasty. Just what was needed. Great sandwich and coffee for under £7

Excellent food, friendly team, courteous manager, great atmosphere. Definitely quieter than it should be. Food took longer than expected, but the care and taste was worth it/required.

we visited last week for a late evening meal...what a bizarre experience we had....the entire staff seemed like they would rather have been elsewhere and the owner?...I don't quite get it as all other reviews were raving how good it was...the food was ok nothing special...brought out quickly piping hot and looking well presented.....we've had better tho?

Notre diner au Fouberts a été une déception car nous nous attendions à un restaurant italien chaleureux, avec nappes à larges carreaux.: à la place, ce sont des tables en bois avec des sets de table. La nourriture est bonne sans être exceptionnelle et le service moyen

Friendly staff and excellent breakfast with quality products. Spotlessly clean establishment. We liked it so much we ate there twice on our recent weekend in London. Would highly recommend

Went on an unplanned visit to this restaurant this evening. Had intended to go somewhere else but it was closedGreat family run restaurant with excellent service. Friendly staff and ownersGreat selection of food with all the old reliables available. Had starters and mains and coffeeA great place to go for a meal and open from early til late.

We stopped here for dinner just by chance and i'm so happy we did. The food was amazing, the service was great and the atmosphere was good as well. Would definitely recommend to others if they want a little slice of Italy. It is really well priced and worth a visit.

Muy buen ambiente, la relación precio-calidad-atención esta excelente, lo recomiendo sin lugar a dudas. La atención de los dueños del restaurante fue muy buena, siempre atentos. La pizza excelente, solo que no recomiendo el picante en aceite, no es el mejor

Restaurante bastante asequible para la zona en la que se encuentra (una de las más caras de Londres). Buena comida italiana y trato muy atento por parte de los camareros. Muy cercano a Hyde Park.Si estás por la zona de Kensington te recomiendo que te acerques a probarlo.

Lovely restaurant on Kensington High Street with very clean surroundings, lovely staff and a reasonably priced menu. Will keep going back again and again! A gem!!

Fouberts is a typical family runned restaurant that is not easy to find specially in these part of London where everything is owned by Big Chain Companies, the food is lovely home made and the service is friendly and fun.

After a brilliant afternoon at the science museum, we decided to find somewhere that was unique yet reasonably priced to eat. We were very pleased to find such a lovely restaurant.I could not fault anything at all. I can recommend the deep fried calamari and the sea food linguine. My partner enjoyed the cheese garlic bread, and the spaghetti bolognese, commenting that it had a slight, yet enjoyable kick to it. I look forward to returning here, and I highly recommend it to anyone.

After making the mistake of following the countless reviews written on trip advisor, my partner and I decided to pay a visit to this family run restaurant I pass everyday on my way home from work. We went on a Thursday evening and were the only diners there until 8 pm. We were seated and served promptly, however the service from then on went significantly downhill. We decided on seafood spaghetti with my partner having veal with seasonal vegetables and shared fried calamari to start with. The waiter served us the starter along with bruschetta (?!) which hadn't been ordered. He insisted I ordered it for an embarrassing minute or so and I defensively apologised and clarified exactly what we had ordered in the most articulate manner possible (this may have been due to a language barrier - I've now learnt that even as a native english speaker I should probably confirm the table's order directly afterwards). After this debacle the waiter became very monosyllabic and dismissive towards us until we paid the bill. In terms of the food, it was generally a huge let down. The calamari was overcooked, my spaghetti was extremely dry and my partner's veal was so thin it had the texture of cardboard. The only reason why I'm giving Fouberts 2 stars is solely because of the delicious home-made ice-cream.

Lovely Italian old style restaurant in one of the best London areas, the food is just like Mamma, and the service is good!!!!!

Fabulous Italian food at prices that would be good anywhere in the country, nevermind in the centre of London. Nice menu choices and excellent service, topped off with some of the nicest ice-cream I've eaten.

We were late and stumbled upon this Cafe/Restaurant- there was only 2 people in the restaurant that was close to closing. We were welcomed, we were not rushed and we had great Pizzas and the best Pasta Carbonara we have ever had - on top of this the most delicious ice creams and coffeeVery well priced, Good house wine. We will certainly go there again the next time we stay in the area
