Jaks Kings Road in Kensington and Chelsea

I went to Jak’s a few times before the pandemic and enjoyed it. However, I went there for dinner with my friends and emailed them about going to the club afterwards. The dinner was ok. Very buzzy but the service wasn’t great. After dinner we wanted to go to the dance floor, as specified in my email to Jak’s, but you could only go on the dance floor if you booked a table (they’ve changed policies since the pandemic apparently). Obviously it was massively frustrating and I wouldn’t have gone to Jak’s if I had known this. Therefore, I’d only go to Jak’s if you want to have overpriced drinks and stand in a cramped bar with no seats 👎

Nice place, good service and recommendations especially from Andra. She is a sweetheart, thank you! See you soon

We visited on the weekend and it was just fantastic. Lovely ambiance, delicious food and drinks. We were recommended several dishes which did not disappoint; well presented and fresh. Loved the Grilled King Prawns, Grilled Sea Bass Fillet with Roast potatoes and Grilled vegetables. We shared a Pizza Margarita, best pizza I have ever had. They have beautiful and presentable cocktails. We paired our food with Jak’s Revolution. And not to mention the great music. I don’t normally leave reviews, but this time I had to. Highly recommend!!!

I Highly recommended this beautiful place, I went last weekend with my family for a dinner and they all went perfectly fine, food is amazing and very nice cocktails, I definitely coming back again.

I cannot tell you how excited I was to go out for a meal with my housemates following a grueling lockdown 2.0. We decided to treat ourselves to a slap up dinner on the Kings Road at Jaks bar to celebrate being set free. Let me tell you, I already miss being confined to my own cooking. I was amazed to see a £22 beef burger on the menu, I pictured grass-fed wagyu, generous lashings of bacon, organic non-pasturised cheese and all the trimmings at that price. What I received fell worryingly short of the mark. I couldn't help but be concerned by the overwhelming flatness of said burger upon arrival, however I dived in anyway - overexcitement and anticipation getting the better of me. The first sensation that met my eager taste buds can only be described as the texture of a wet dishcloth. On closer inspection, this was the sweaty slabs of sponge pretending to be a bun. This was about as good as it got, as this moist mouthful went swiftly downhill. Next on the agenda was the sliced, chilled (maybe semi frozen?) tomato that managed to keep none of the taste but all of the fur that it had before it was frozen. Swiftly on to the main event - the patty. Notably similar in bite to the spongey bread imposter, still steaming slightly from the microwave. If I were to be hypercritical I think it could have done with an extra 4 or 5 seconds on 900 Watts. It reminded me slightly of those Rustlers burgers, you know the ones - Zero to Tasty in 90 seconds. The single difference being those awful things were actually not that bad. Albeit a tad better better value at £1.50 from t' Co-Op. Elsewhere, the bacon must have been furloughed, and the cheese had mostly evaporated in the microwave. 'All the trimmings' turned out to be chips and a broccoli/green bean medley. The chips were the dishes saving grace, as they were quite average. The broccoli must have been on the boil since lockdown 1.0 but these things happen. Aside from this the beers were cold, and service was efficient. In conclusion, if you're considering a visit, do yourself a favour and microwave your own burger before arrival - this way you'll only be mildly dissapointed.

Absolutely appalling ordered a pizza with friends and it came with bite marks, cold and hair inside. Please do not order.

Excellent food and service. Brilliant for drinks too Thanks to chef Samir excellent tuna steak. Definitely recommend it.

We had to wait around 25 minutes for a waiter to acknowledge that we were sat there and after asking a few waiters to take our order, finally a man came to us. I asked him his recommendation for a sweet cocktail and he mumbled...

We have visited Jak’s a few times in August and each time have been met by an extremely rude doorman. Rather than explaining politely that they are at capacity he is hot headed and rude. He proceeds to let other guests in and uses foul...

Just popped in with friends on a bit of a crawl, great atmosphere and well decorated. Staff were very efficient, only had drinks but food looked good...will try it next time

I come here for food and drinks before going to Embargo Republica on nights out with my friends and I like it a lot

Stopped here while out shopping was warm enough to sit outside had cheese sharing plater An cool beer all very good😀

Fantastic building with loads of character. Lovely staff. Food choice is amazing and very good. Atmosphere is superb

First visit for a private event...friendly attentive staff...yummy home cooked style food...generous portions...lovely decor...large bar & dancefloor. Very nice evening...will be back!!

We were in the area and due to very very bad customer service at Chelsea Lodge, JAKS gratefully confirmed they could seat a party of 10 at no notice. Arrived at the venue, amazing, great atmosphere, great food and great service. Following meal we moved...

I went to Jak’s in August 19 with some colleagues for a leaving party. We were a large group 15/20 people and the evening was nice and food was ok and abundant for the price. One of my colleagues and myself wanted to leave early...

A huge space below the Furniture and Arts Building. Live music when we entered at 7:15 pm. This was replaced by recorded music from 8ish. A great selection of cocktails and wines. I had a Strawberry Lime one, which was excellent. My friends had the...

Found this place by accident couldn't be more pleased. Fabulous choice of food and great surrounding, realy quirky. Went back next day for breakfast again too. Great portion sizes.

Good music, good ambience and very convient the restaurant/bar/music concept. If the music was just a little less louder it would be "au point". Missing a place to hang coats.

Jacks use to be one of our favourite places for cocktails and occasionally some food! Now it’s all microwave prepared...

We opted for the buffet not realizing that they would microwave the dishes to warm them up. It was all okay not great but good

A reservation had been made for a large group at 8.30pm and when we arrived we were told we had to wait. At 9.00pm we were no closer to sitting down and so asked the waiter about it. He was very unhelpful and it became...

Popped in for a bite to eat between meetings. I had lasagne and a fresh juice and they charged £25.88. Rather expensive for what it was. Wouldn’t be returning.

Adams’s fantastic. She made my date spectacular. She was friendly, attentive and very charismatic. I will definitely be returning.

This is a perfect venue for a birthday party. We booked a large table. Menu was roughly set in advance and management were very accommodative. Atmosphere is great, food good and all staff were lovely, gracious and helpful. After dinner, everyone moved over to the...

Amazing fresh food, atmosphere, live band, clean, and service. Faruk the manager and his Team here really looked after us. Faruk is a fantastic asset to the Restaurant. We love it here and come here once a week. Keep up the good work. Thank you...

Outrageous service over the phone. Guy called Sean decided to charge me £80, for non show up, where upon the booking he said that 'don't worry we won't charge you, it's only for the booking' hence it doesn't say anything about any charge on Jak's...

Waitress was rude - took our order then came back asking for a minimum spent deposit (which we exceeded) but felt very aggressive Then they put drinks on our bill which we didn’t order - these things happen - but rather than correct it they...

It’s huge ! Lots of different areas to this place. Live music on Friday night. Food is small menu but good and the food was plentiful and tasty. Great buzz. They offer plastic glasses which is not great. However it’s good overall.

Amazing evening with a lovely crew! Francesca 100% suggested! I reccomend absolutely the jaks...good compromise between a good dinner and some drinks with a bit of music

I attended a birthday party on Friday evening and was horrified to find a chewing gum (whilst unfortunately chewing it) in my aubergine parmigiana. It was the colour of the sauce and had clearly been cooked in it. The response I received from the manager...

Few weeks ago I’ve been here for a company dinner, excellent food and the service is LOVELY ... the atmosphere it’s nice and if u want to enjoy you should come here for sure ...

I love this place. I enjoy so much with the food, the service and the environment. I try to come one time per month and Faruk always take care of me very well. Thanks Lupe " "Spanish woman living in London"

I suggest everyone in the Kings Road Design district area to have their lunch at Jak's. The food is excellent, freshly cooked every day by a fantastic team of cooks. The selection of dishes is very wide, covering all range of tastes. A particular mention to the great waiters team who are extremely kind, efficient and helpful!

Food to drinks awesome stuff!!!!! Very friendly and attentive staff Had a wonder Friday night with 20 friends We will be back again

Poor organisation of table service and customer service. Patronising comments from 2 separate wait staff about our orders,and an awful attitude to being given feedback about our disappointing experience. Will not be visiting again, and Jak’s would do well to train their staff on basic customer service and courtesy.

For the price, it's not worth it. The chicken is pretty dry because it's left out all day under the hot lights and the service is fairly awful. The decor is very cool, but that's about all it's got going for it.

Half the table of 7 were served food and another half had to wait 25min to be served despite few reminders and complains. Tuna and halibot were well over cooked and were simmering in the tray. Red Meat was the same, more boiled than roasted. Their cocktails were below standard, porn star martini was a watered down version of it saving up on passion fruit puree. A very simple apology was offered by the waiteress and that is all. Atmosphere was decent but food has been a disappointment every time and quality of drinks regressing at every visit.

Locale situato in uno dei quartieri più alla moda di Londra, bellissimo ristorante che vale assolutamente la pena vedere. Arredamento unico e curato nei minimi dettagli, sale grandi ma allo stesso tempo locale molto intimo sia per una cena per due che per un gruppo di amici. Ottima selezione di vini, salumi e formaggi.. vi è la possibilità di ordinare anche una pizza!!

Only 10 minutes from the Bridge and you can always get a table and be served well in advance of the match starting. Food is excellent and the service very good in comfortable surrounding which are starting to get a little tired.

Got a table at the bar area and asked for a Birthday cake to be available weeks in advance. On the evening, when asked the waiter to bring the cake, he said that he couldn't understand as he didn't speak any English...

i've always found jaks a bit odd since it's a restaurant but also a club but i have to say it gets it right on both fronts! the music is really good and the food is surprisingly good too!! definitely worthwhile

Amazing food, good entertainment and a very special venue with a big screen always on! Classy and for every occasion due to many facilities.

About a group of 20 of us went to Jaks for a Xmas meal . place was clearly overbooked and the service was shocking. Had to get our own drinks , no water provided and food just as poor , cold and generally inedible and way over priced . Managed to get service charge taken off the bill after a bit of a debate .

Having eaten here before and loved it ,we made an advance booking for 8.30 on 30th December for 11 people.We had to give a £200 deposit and was told they were closing at 11pm that night. We arrived at 8-45 to a completely empty restaurant and were asked to order quickly as the kitchen was closing at 9.30. Our starters were served and our mains at the same time!!! We were then told the restaurant was closing at 9.30!?!? The waitress was very nice and we felt sorry for her.We ended up not eating our starters because the mains were getting cold.We queried why they took the booking in the first place and gave incorrect information and why we weren’t told this before we ordered but got no satisfactory explanation from the manager.

I’ve been a few times for dinner and other times on weekend nights for drinks - every time the service has been amazing and the food is delicious, just like all the other Jaks venues! Last week I went with a large group of friends for my birthday and the DJ & atmosphere were perfect. I will be visiting many more times in the future :)

What's not to love, jaks always hits the mark, we come here often and will continue to do so, great experience.

Me gusta mucho la decoración, muy animado y las camareras muy atentas. Zona perfecta para cenar y luego tomar una copa.

Lovely place to eat and have drinks. Faruk always kind and efficient with the service as the other waiters. 5 star night !

We had an evening dinner with friends at this restaurant. I loved the rustic ambiance at this place. It was really beautiful. The food was great. Good service from the waiters. Will definitely visit again.

Fuimos a tomarnos una copa allí un grupo de amigos.

Massive down stairs bar come restaurant with good food menu. My problem is that in an establishment of this size does not cater for real ale/bitter drinkers, not even a token bottle.

We were passing by and we found this amazing place. They also have vegetarian and vegan food, amazing! Nice chef, Dino was great, he served us! Great wine, nice staff, amazing place and atmosphere. I will recommend it

Poor service, Luke warm coffee , expensive, unfriendly . Maybe better in the evenings but this was a bad experience and I would recommend to go elsewhere.

Went with friends, it was awesome! Great place, delicious food, incredible atmosphere, very good service. When we finished to eat we moved to the bar- it was crazy! Highly recommended!

Booked table at Jak’s for a work event for about 20 people. Such a great venue for an informal, fun and ‘let your hair down’ night. Staff were really attentive, nothing was a trauma even when dealing with such a big group with many nationalities. Food was great and lots of choices to cater for everyone. And reasonable. After dinner drinks and dancing enjoyed by everyone. Would recommend.

Visitamos con un grupo de amigos para la cena. La comida fue deliciosa, pudiendo ver lo que los platos de la vitrina en el área de servicio realmente ayudaron a decidir qué quería comer, sin decepcionarme con lo que pensé que iba a recibir.

I can’t really get my head around this weird bar-restaurant concept in the bowels of one of the antiques buildings off Lotts Rd & Kings Rd. The interior design is entirely random - a mixture of warehouse chic, industrial garbage and hipster cliché. There’s a better separate lounge area with a big screen for the football but the main dining area is just OTT. The beer is unbelievably expensive - £14 for two pints of Peroni. This place just isn’t special enough to warrant a return at these prices.

First visit with a friend. I wasn’t expecting it to be this lively. Food was great. Music and bar area was fun. Good crowd. Friendly people. Nice night out.

i was on JAKS on weekend with my family and friends everything was perfect food staff the place you cant ask for more we will be back again for sure thank you and see you again soon....

Pros - friendly staff, tables available all night (don’t just get a two hour slot like some other places), great vegan and veggie options, singer and music all night! Cons - single rum and coke 12 pound! Best to go for the wine....

Went here for lunch and loved the setting and there is plenty of room so not squashed together, a very quirky place and nice environment.

Really impressed... Only popped in for a takeaway coffee and was greeted by three different friendly front of house staff, good vibes from the live jazz playing, and top coffee. Very impressed indeed.

I've always had a great time at Jak's whether there for drinks or dinner. Weekend nights can be busy but still pretty comfortable. I recently took the kids to dinner on Sunday night and found it to be quiet and enjoyable in a whole new way. Food is always good and service pleasant.

This place is very interesting and unique, my compliments to the interior designer. Food is fine, service is good, perfect with big group of friends.

Simply banging. I had high hopes coming here - I hadn’t set foot since the place was an infamous nightclub. They’ve tweaked the environment perfectly, the Groups I was surrounded with were startling good looking, we felt at home. Bravo Jak’s. smashed it.

Wasn’t really expecting much when I got taken here for lunch, Not really advertised locally. How wrong can you be!

Mi amigo me llevó a este lugar por primera vez la noche. Y me sorprendió lo grande que era el lugar. La decoración y detalles donde sin duda en mi calle. Todos tuvimos diferentes platos de la gran variedad de comida. Aunque tenía una cocina estilo buffet y llegamos a las 21:00 en un domingo que creo que toda esa comida no te gusto como fresco, pero todo era muy fresco y delicioso! Servicio al cliente era amor el hecho de que podía llevar a mi perro! Deberá seguir su en insta por cierto athena_with_el_oso_pelo.

This place is beautiful and serves the most amazing foods. Could eat here everyday!!!! The staff are lovely too.

Rude staff (even that is an understatement). Only put 1 star because 0 wasn't an option. Appalling customer 'service'. Manager included.

Amazing underground place. Huge place beautiful food and lovely atmosphere Able to book for parties and many different areas

Great space with a lot going on. Good staff in Bar and restaurant. Buffet style presentation of food served in a relaxed, semi bohemian manner..... All in a good way!! Worth visiting

Always a delight to re-visit Jaks when in the area. Always friendly staff and great service. Great to watch a football match on the big screen, on a comfy sofa and enjoying excellent food and drink. Spacious and with a great ambience. Love it!

Jaks is so nice. The staff are so friendly and polite, even to the more drunk customers. The music is really good and it's just a really fun bar. 10/10

La cena es formal o informal, se puede comer en una mesa, un banco largo mesa estilo o en sillones alrededor de una mesa de café. La comida es preparada parcialmente y algunos alimentos están disponibles para mirar en el mostrador, mientras que otras sólo mediante el menú. Pedí marisco linguini, que era fresca y sabrosa. excelente menú de cócteles también, y los precios eran adecuados para el lugar y la zona. La verdadera diversión comienza más tarde en la noche, cuando la música en vivo de Jazz, Swing comienza o fácil de escuchar, y alrededor de la casa de fin de semana, dj spin y R&hip-hop.; La zona del bar es grande con un montón de sillas y luego una zona de asientos de inmersión con cabinas disponibles para reservar o tomar si gratis. Tienen una pared de proyección y sistema de sonido estupendo, con un ambiente agradable y divertido. Gran lugar para pasar unas cuantas horas en una tarde con bebidas a un precio razonable y un montón de personal bar

Omgoosh! Jak’s was amazing!! We were just looking for a place to have dinner and listen to live music... little did we know that we would find a gem! It was fantastic... amazing food, great music. We were a little under dressed after a day of sight seeing but no one seemed to care but us. The staff was awesome. I can’t say enough about the place we truly stumbled upon! My son got the Rib Eye and he said that it ruined him from ever having another steak. The pizza and spaghetti were also soooo good! We may go back again tomorrow night!

Enjoyed my evening at Jak’s. There was live music and an excellent bar area with plenty of space. There is a separate dining area that naturally blends in and features some nice sofas and even a fruit truck! The food serving is also open until late. Ordered a pizza around 11pm and it was delicious.

Locale molto grande, tema post-industriale, con cucina e sala disco. Chiude presto (24.00) ma al piano di sopra c‘è una discoteca. Nel complesso, da provare.

Busy or slow, this place is always a gem and a must visit when in London. Fridays and Saturdays often have live music. Always a movie playing on the huge projector screen, super cool trendy place

One of my favourite in London. The food is very good, their tuna fish is really good, and you can eat a little bit of everything since it's kind of like an open buffet.

As a 49 year old American living in England I felt beyond happy to have found the line of Jaks bars/clubs/restaurants. They are super cool hangouts where we have stopped in for drinks and nibbles while out in London. The pizza we had here was...

Plenty of places in London to have a good night without security being on your case!!!!!!!!!

Jaks is not a great place to go for an intimate lunch/dinner but is not such a bad choice for large parties in a casual atmosphere. There is a spacious clubbing area opening around 10pm offering a relaxed and safe party opportunity.

Great food exellent service amazing place I think I have rated 5 stars cause there was no other option 5 is the minimum for this place this place deserve 5 golden stars well done and see you soon *****

After an amazing first visit, I decided to give it a go another time for my best friend’s birthday. Booked an early table at the restaurant and another one at the bar later and i was impressed by the service and quality of food i must say that if you would like to be treated for something to remember for a long time then this is a write place to go love this place thanx to all the staff for giving the attention and definitely go back and back agin and I recommend to all of my friends and I can t wait to come again!!!

Forget the classic restaurant, jak’s is a mix of different place...bar, restaurant, music are the words!

The venue is quite cool and the food is nice enough. But the positives end there. The tables are so close together that the waiters can’t even get to many of the covers, for a restaurant it is incredibly loud, and worst of all is the service. It was frankly shocking. When we approached the manager about the poor service we received he said “so?”. How unbelievably rude. How he has risen to management has me utterly bamboozled as he is the most unsuited person I have ever had the misfortune of meeting. He is rude, arrogant, unhelpful, and awful with people. I wouldn’t go back to Jak’s if they paid me, and I’d advise everyone else to avoid like the plague.

1. Party of 14 got given 5 food menus to share after waiting for the menus for 30mins2. We were told that we can only order pizza or pasta, (“great”for the three vegans on our table)3. When we asked what vegan mains we could have we got a dumbfound waitress asking us “what is veganism”4. Got the wrong drinks delivered, got the wrong food too5. 4 of our guests got their food delivered after the rest of us finished eating6. Food was very average7. Asked to speak to the manager and were told that we had to get up and go see him as he wouldn’t come to our table8. After all this, we didn’t even receive an apology and were told that he will not apply any discounts and that he will take off the optional service charge of our bill instead.... which isn’t fair on the one waiter who tried to fix the mistakes of the previous waitressAVOID THIS PLACE

Ambiente excelente para um encontro com amigos no sábado à noite! Ótimas opções de drinks e bebidas. Música boa. No entanto, a comida, não achei à altura do lugar. Há várias opções prontas num estilo de buffet e você pode escolher 1 proteína e dois acompanhamentos. Há ainda opções de massa e pizza. Escolhi um escalope de frango com canelone de ricota/espinafre e brócolis. Confesso que não estava ruim, mas também não tinha nada demais. Lugar muito interessante. Sugiro fazer reserva antes.

Visité este lugar con mi marido, las mesas eran demasiado cerca uno del otro y me sentí así como tener nuestro propio espacio invadido, me sentí como si estuviese invadir otros, ciertamente no es íntimo!

He estado aquí por la noche antes, pero recientemente fui para una comida de cumpleaños, amigos. El servicio era muy lento, teníamos que esperar años para pedir una copa luego esperar incluso más tiempo para que realmente llegue a la mesa, luego tuve que encontrar un camarero para preguntarle si podíamos pedir comida y nos dijo que no era necesario y servicio de mesa para ir al buffet para pedir comida, luego 2 minutos más tarde y la camarera vino a llevarse todos nuestros pedidos que realmente no sube. Pedimos la comida y era muy inexpresivo, al final de la comida la cuenta vino y me emocionó por lo que era! La comida es un precio razonable, pero las bebidas son exorbitantes. Después nos trasladamos a la mesa del bar y cuando alguien preguntó si podían poner sus cosas en la habitación vestido nos dijeron que la habitación vestido estaba lleno. . . . . Fue en general no la mejor experiencia y no pensaré volver allí por un tiempo.

チェルシーの本拠地Stanford Bridgeの近くにあるレストランです。

Possibly the worse but most expensive pizza I've ever eaten. How you can cock-up a pizza I don't know! The 'olive oil' tasted off and I suspect it was cheaper vegetable oil. Overall, an unpleasant experience.

Great value for money, my partner and I big couldn't finish our mains. Good atmosphere and stayed for a few cocktails after dinner.

I have gone to Jaks many times including the one near Knightsbridge. But the kings road jaks is huge and has a very diverse number of meals to pick from and you can never go wrong with the tuna steak! It is a very retro hip place to eat and party too if you wanted on a more mellow mature path. After 12am everyone tends to go Zefi for an hour or so. If you are visiting or like a good meal with a great atmosphere you would not be disappointed going here
