Pavilion in Kensington and Chelsea

Very friendly and inviting staff and atmosphere. I'll definitely go again. Coffee good too.

Going down hill. Men's department as boring as M&S now.

A very pleasant restaurant with a readonable set menu on weekdays.

Tea del pomeriggio in una location fantastica , ottimo servizio e gentilezza , atmosfera unica

I ate at The Ivy at the pavilion. The meal was lovely. Excellent steak tartar and pasta with mushrooms and truffles.

The service was great and Watter Mohamed Saleh was nice and helpful

Booked table for 3 for afternoon tea, we were shown to a table layed for 2 ,not rectified. Our pots of tea were bought out a good 10 mins before sandwiches and cake so we'd almost finished it by then,the server knocked over the sugar bowl 🥴, no one asked how things were at all and we had to interrupt 2 servers chatting to ask for the bill ,over priced and poor service so I wouldn't recommend it

Visited recently, so very few staff and hardly any visitors. Soulless and devoid of colour .Very boring ,typical corporate.

Disappointing food and service.

Excellent for a local we go at least once a week

Good food but grossly overpriced. Not good value for money.

To be clear the staff are nice and polite but the overall place has a long way to go. Would really avoid it. Not worth the price you pay. Roof leaked for months before they relocated us under the pretense that they didn’t expect it to “rain this much” (in London...). Internet is relatively slow. Door malfunctioned the other day and I was locked out of my office for over an hour and none of the staff could do anything about it. On the plus side, yeah the decor is very nice...

Spacious place with the time for drink and meeting friends

It's functiona..... if it's not a sweat house on our floor.

Excellent food great atmosphere

Quite nice place for a business meetings - really satisfied with it! Really recommend it and look forward for my next visit...

Один из самых приемсивенно - классических ресторанов на Кенсингтон в Лондоне со своей террасой и классическом меню представленном очень своеобразно. Вкусно и не очень дорого,,, ))))

Gary George and his team are simply fantastic. Warm friendly staff and always happy to help.

Love this place. All new now after the renovation

Food was excellent, service was excellent, the staff couldn't do enough for us. Even the customers were very friendly to us, they kept recommending things to try. It was a great lunch.

Only passing through but looked lovely, have to go back when I've got more time.

Best office space... location, services... luxury!!

Splendido ristorante, sia la sala principale che il gazebo vista parco, cibo e servizio impeccabili, sempre una certezza. per pranzi cene aperitivi o Tè.

Very convenient place for a meeting.

High end coworking space with first rate service and accomediations. I highly recommend the Pavillion.

Smart and elegant Co share working space. Lovely people at the reception.

Co work offices excellent choice of location and well organised.

Luxurious co working space on high street ken

Miércoles tenía su almuerzo. Entrantes eran bang bang y la sopa de pollo. Ambos eran muy buenas y sabrosas. La próxima semana añade su carne y salmón, también muy bien hecha y sabrosa. Su postre era helado de vainilla con salsa de caramelo o mousse de chocolate oscuro. Si te gusta el Chocolate, te guste.

Very nice private members' club; hope to get back here sometime. If you're looking for the entrance, it's tucked up the little side alley!

The quality of the food doesn't justify the price of what you are being charged Saying that though the atmosphere more than makes up for it😉

Lovely service and nice memebrs club. Recommended

Made a reservation via OpenTable on Monday for today (Friday). Arrived at 12:45 to be told that there had now closed down with no further explanation or apologies. Obviously won't be back & they're shut

This was not a good restaurant. Breakfast was very forgettable and service dreadful. Tried to have dinner there once and had to leave as service was so bad. AND after reviewing it on here got rude responses from the manager - vastly place vastly manager

My reservation was cancelled 2 hours before I had booked with the excuse that they were not operating anymore even though they had confirmed my booking the day before. Very strange

Having sent a confirmation email the day before no one had the manners to let me know they were closing the restaurant. Arrived after half hour cab ride to see that closed up after an apparent takeover!<br />The 1 star is there because this site forces me to do so.

La primera visita al pabellón para cenar y me quedé impresionado. El menú y la comida era simple, no es demasiado complicado, fresco y de primera clase.

Cuando el pabellón para celebraciones de cumpleaños, un plato de atún para mí, mi esposa estaba siendo bueno (no hay plato) hasta que se ha probado la/mi tartar de atún maravilloso. bistec como plato principal y una gran selección de vinos. Debe probar algo especial en Kensington.

Food was quick to come and all in our party enjoyed their meals. The Eton Mess went down a treat.

Disappointed the table we asked for was changed and we were sat without a table being made up in advance. Service a bit chaotic though which let the experience down.

Nos encantó a celebrar nuestra boda de perlas aquí. La comida era excelente, el servicio excepcional og y café, tuve que pedir lo que me dieron, era mejor que todos los otros lugares que he probado café en Londres. Quizás no es importante para ti, pero para mí era :)

Brunch was good - reasonable prices for Kensington. Service was mediocre though, could do with a-bit more smile and friendlier service.

Lovely ambience, food well presented, service very attentive. Really enjoyable

Pasamos aquí algún tiempo de calidad después de la cena. Cenamos en otro lugar y fuimos aquí sólo para bebidas. Nos alojamos en el bar. Era un viernes a la noche y el lugar estaba bastante animada, no había mesas disponibles. El restaurante tiene una cocina abierta donde podrá ver todos los chefs y sous-chefs cocinar. Servicio rápido en el bar. El camarero era una chica que trabajaba duro haciendo todos esos cócteles. Ambiente animado y ambiente moderno.

The waiting staff fantastic and make you feel right at home. The problem was with our main that it had to be taken back as it was rare! Not medium well as requested at ordering, so you would expect a new steak with all sides and condiments to be replaced!? Oh no same steak minus sides and condiments...........<br />Ask why it had returned and not a new steak that the waitress said we would get! Well that&#039;s how it is sir! <br />Thanks for a meal to remember! I wonder if that&#039;s how it is in London? No customer service, just role them in and role them out!!

Coffees were cold, waitress needed to ask twice for our order - however act was pulled together with some nice eggs benedict. 2nd time in a month I&#039;ve eaten - an example of &#039;work still to do on waiting staff&#039; - food amazing....

Having never ventured into this intreiguing space, it was a nice surprise to find there was style and space aplenty. Food was well presented and we were given plenty of the ultimate luxury TIME.

We arrived early. the staff were very welcoming, and gave us a great table near to where the chefs were preparing food.we ordered off the set lunch menu, very good value and delicious food. Very good service and friendly staff. I will be definitely returning.

Super good and very good service. We will definitely be going back.

Despite an initial 10 minute wait to be asked for a drink the service and unexpected high quality near Michelin style food made up for the wait and after the service was slick and timely. I had an unexpectedly good Parsley soup -soup being a starter I rarely order and my wife was raving about her scallop and pork in the taxi home. We had a couple of cocktails - which wear above the average. The decor was contemporary if a little business like and the venue itself being centre of HighSt Kensington felt perfect for professional meetings rather than romantic liaisons. I would most certainly add it to my repertorie for great London food places to visit sitting by the window was like being a fish in a gold fish bowl to high street I&#039;d recommend Al fresco option at the rear of venue

Restaurante con una buena imagen, por la decoración, aparente "nivel" y modernidad, al combinar mesas y barra, tal como hay que "sufrir" hoy en día en la hostelería "de moda".

We went for breakfast a couple of weeks ago, we walk past it quite a lot and decided to try it. We sat down, ordered our drinks and then ordered breakfast. The English breakfast tea was lovely! There were so many mistakes when our breakfast arrived. My partner had ordered waffles and bacon and they gave him two pots of syrup before coming back to take one away. Our friend ordered a sausage sandwich and they gave him a bacon one. The waiter then told our friend that he was sure that he had asked for bacon instead of sausage, not great!! We were sitting across from the chefs counter who got very visibly annoyed that he had to make this sandwich all over again! There was only another one or two tables in so it was not like they were overly busy and stressed! My poached eggs were perfect though. The portions were quite small for the price and our three breakfasts with drinks came to almost £50 which based on our experience was not worth it at all!! I will stick to my lovely local hotel where the food is equal on quality but half the price!

An excellent meal in a surprisingly quiet but very attractive restaurant..

Having visited the extremely busy Portobello Rd market, we found ourselves in need of lunch. A quick search on Opentable found us within five minutes walk of Pavilion, with the added bonus of a three course lunch offer. <br /> What a great choice - the food was fantastic, great value and a beautiful place to while away a few hours

Awesome food,awesome service Adam Simmons pavilion in Kensington is a must ! The service was amazing and the staff made my clients and I feel like, we were the only people in the restaurant. Adam even came over to the table to ask if we had enjoyed our meal and a chat about other good eating spots.

Grab a seat at the bar for a front row seat into the kitchen<br />Food smells amazing from here<br />Great presentation <br />Would highly recommend the. Chicken dish on the set menu at lunch and the carrot cake dessert

Fantastic service and fabulous ambience. I would recommend for group bookings and perfect for a special occasion or evening out. The service was 1st class and we would definitely be visiting in the future and recommending to others ...

Go there if you do NOT want to talk to your company. The restaurant has the noise level of a bar. Waiters are nice but for the money the restaurant charges, service, ambience could defenitely be much better.

The food was very good but service was very disappointing.

Great spot to go for lunch mid week, went with some friends from the area. The place is stunning, the service is good without being overbearing, the food is amazing and the set menu was good value for money.<br /><br />We will very likely to go back and try out their cocktails!

Pavilion Mothers day lunch e mail arrived and I booked. £30 set menu and it was fantastic. Staff are great, atmosphere bustling, food superb. I had their Roast beef and yorkshire pudding and it was probably the best I've ever eaten, very generous portions too. Can't recommend this place highly enough.

Relaxed atmosphere and good food - a little expensive, around £100 for two main courses, two cocktails, one dessert and one coffee. I found it was worth that price though - the interior is beautiful and the menu is good. We had a sirloin steak and a wood pigeon dish which were both great.

Expensive. At best average eggs for breakfast. Almost impossible to get a waiters attention whether to order or get the bill.

I have been to Pavilion many times now both for lunch and dinner and I can&#039;t recommend Pavilion enough. Friendly staff, stunning interiors and truly delicious food with impeccable presentation. I had the sea bass and it was incredible, delicate but with punchy flavours. Also try the cocktails in the evening, a great place for afterwork drinks and always buzzing with people. A must try restaurant in London.

The food was excellent, but 2 of my friends had time to leave, which we told the manager, bear in mind we had 1.30 to eat 2 courses, which is in most places plenty of time...however it took ages from starter to main course and my friend literally had to eat in 5 mins after (many reminders ) the food finally arrived.<br />It&#039;s a shame because the place is great, beautiful and the food was VERY good.<br />I will go back and give it a second chance just for the food, and will make sure that no one is not in a tight schedule.<br />We got a bit of an attitude from the manager...which is not nice, as we told we someone had to leave...

It was absolutely lovely - went for my boyfriends birthday and we thought it was great. Only possible negative and I&#039;ve seen this in the other reviews, is that it is quite cold in there. I think they have the aircon on full because the kitchen is open but I did get a little chilly other than that amazing I&#039;d recommend.

love it, got taken here for lunch twice, will come back with the family some point over the weekend

This is the worst restaurant for service I have been too in my entire life, let me set the scene.<br /><br />two friends and I entered the restaurant to be greeted by the most miserable sour looking woman, she escorted us to the worst table in the house, slap bang next to the door, we had noticed on open table pictures of a terrace that look pleasant we asked the sour faced greeter if we could sit out their her reply was &quot;its not available for you&quot; now fuming because of her ridiculous response.<br /><br />we had been sat down for about 30 seconds and had menus bought over I asked him to see if his response would be any different to see if we could go out their and they said no it was a members area. <br /><br />we had a peruse of the menu for about a minute and then had some cretin come over and ask for our order we said we are not ready yet. he said we have to order now because the kitchen closes at 2:30 that was the final straw for us, we got up and left.<br /><br />it did not state anywhere on there website, opentables advertisement or anywhere else for that matter.<br /><br />disgusting,vile,appalling service !

I took some clients there for lunch, the service was great, they gave us what we wanted, when we wanted it. The waiting staff was really professional and well educated on the wines and food. My guests all said that they will be back with the family over the weekend.

I have eaten at Pavilion many times and i must say it is one of my favourite places in London. The location is perfect, the food is outstanding and every time i have dined, the service has been fantastic. <br />I had the carrot and ginger soup for starter and it was delicious as well as the cod with chorizo and vegetables for main during lunch. The lunch menu is great and the waiter we had serving our table made the lunch spectacular. Pavilion is beautiful and the interior design is something else, very tasteful. There is also a luxury business club occupying the rest of the building which is great as i can imagine many popping down for a business lunch at Pavilion or going for a breakfast before work. How lucky are they to work in such a great space?

Myself and my friends tried out Pavilion based on a recommendation from one of our other friends and it did not disappoint!<br /><br />We sat down to a lovely leisurely lunch. Service was attentive and not pushy, and there was sufficient space between courses for us to enjoy the buzzy feel to the restaurant. They had a lunch menu which we stuck to, although the a la carte looked wonderful.<br /><br />I am vegetarian, and the options provided were beautifully cooked and served, as were my friends&#039; meaty dishes.<br /><br />Definitely will be coming back one evening to try out the cocktails which looked amazing. Alas, back to work we go.

I took my mum here for brunch and it was the beginning of a perfect day. The food was fantastic, the surroundings were beautiful and the staff were friendly and attentive. I would definitely go back!!

A very nice venue, good food, nice drinks but poor service. We ordered out drinks which we had to remind them to bring after waiting 15 minuets. Plates were drooped on the table, and 40 minuets wait to order deserts after mains. If they sort out the service this would be a good place to go.

If you find yourself on Kensington High Street and want to get a bite where you can sit and talk, this is ok.

The food is definitely a winner and there is very little, if at all on the menu not to like. I have eaten here several times and would be happy at breakfast, lunch or dinner, the place being versatile and seamlessly morphing from one time of day to the next. The bar is also a lovely place for a quick drink. Unfortunately the service in no way matches the food and appears as an after thought. I would be happy to endorse the restaurant unequivocally if that were improved.

Service was quite slow but staff very attentive, just took a long time for the food to arrive. It was quite cold we were sat by the windows(February) and you did notice the cold draft when the front door opened.<br /><br />Main problem is the open kitchen is very attractive but even sat quite some distance away from it, there was a lot of smoke and smells from the open grill and my clothes smelt like I had been cooking all day when I got home.<br /><br />I think this is not the best place for a romantic dinner, but probably a good setting for lunch or business meal. Maybe just bar drinks.<br /><br />Good selection of wines and deserts excellent!

Le Pavilion sur Kensington High Street est très bien situé. Après une petite entrée, place est faite au bar central, très grand, très bien achalandé. Après avoir appelé, alors qu'il n'y avait que quelques personnes nous sommes enfin servis, le verre de vin est cher et en plus il faut payer les pistaches !

Very nice atmosphere and good food very well presented.

Good New York feeling ambiance. The food would be fine if they didn&#039;t put BACON in everything, including cauliflower soup and even a side order of french beans!<br />The braised cheek of beef was great, except, yes, you&#039;ve guessed, it had a piece of pork in it.<br /><br />Curiously, bacon sorbet was not on the menu and the coffee is pork free, so far ....

Took my mum for lunch here. Booked the day before and they gave us a nice table by the window. It has an open kitchen and a busy atmosphere. Staff were great.The set menu looked good value but was heavy on the shell fish which was an issue due to an allergy so we both chose from the a la carte. I have to say it was one of the best meals I've ever had and my mum agreed. Every dish was 'blimey taste this, it's amazing!' Good value too when compared to the cream of London kitchens. I have no hesitation going back or recommending Pavilion. In fact my parents have been back a few times and taken friends

Lovely lunch and great value on the fixed lunch menu.

This was my second visit to pavilion and it was just as great as the first. Lovely warm welcome from the staff and the food was exceptional! Me and my boyfriend sat at the chefs table and love to see Chef Adam chatting to customers like old friends. Great atmosphere and delicious food!We will definitely be going back.

Dined on a Saturday night ... cold draft from the front door was uncomfortable through out our meal. Another gentleman also complained about how cold it was ... air con was apparently turned up but it did not make any difference. Food was average but service was slow and non existent at times ... ordered another glass of wine during the main course, it still had not arrived when we asked for our bill.

Hello FansWe ate here in Dec 2014. We had the chefs table and Mr S was just great.Considering how many satisfied customers he must see he recognised us and took time to ask about us - Just superb.I visit many high end restaurants and not too many chefs are this caring or approachable, just not had time to report them all on the site.Service extremely attentive.Very good value for moneyThe staff were all so friendly and took time to interact with the diners. The food was amazing, use of fresh seasonal ingredients, clearly a talented chap.Would I recommend, yes and I have booked in again ..You should try it.

While the food and the restaurant decor/ambiance were great, the restaurant does not have many vegetarian options. Restaurant was barely full on a Sat lunch, but still service was poor and slow. Somewhat inexperienced waiters with very thick EU accents makes it difficult to communicate.

It takes a lot for me to gripe but after a second atrocious visit, I feel I have a duty to let other people know. I have been here now on two occasions, both for business breakfasts and both times I've had the worst experience ever.I'm fortunate enough to go to many different places across town for breakfast and I've never experienced service so awful. So, as the story goes...I arrived 15 minutes before my colleague so was seated and offered a coffee. This came promptly. When my colleague got there she wanted to sit somewhere more secluded so that we could discuss business, and the staff politely obliged.Then it all went to pot. We ordered two coffees and two orange juices- they didn't appear for 15 minutes then the waiter actually asked "Can i get you any drinks" well yes... the ones we ordered from you 15 mins ago would be ace... they then didn't come for a further 10 minutes! My colleague ordered scrambled eggs with bacon on toast. We knew from our previous experience here that ordering off menu poses a problem of catastrophic proportions and therefore we were very specific. Her toast arrived, separately of course, and with jam on the side and then after 20 mins we were STILL waiting for the rest of our breakfasts. They then turned up... both stone cold and her eggs on circles on bread (not toast)We were absolutely dumbfounded. We mentioned straight away that the food was cold yet we had no choice but to carry on as they had already taken an hour and a half to get our breakfast to us. To which the waitress put her hand on my breakfast to check!!! We then asked for the bill, it came after another 10 minutes and they included service charge (I'm serious) and also charged a "large" latte? something we didn't have and didn't even know they offered.When we queried this and told them we didn't want to pay the "optional" service charge, the waitress went off in a huff. She then came back and supplied us with another bill... which she slapped down on the table and still with service charge but this time no latte.It wasn't until I asked a THIRD WAITRESS to correct this and explained the awful service that something was done. She called the angry Portuguese/spanish waitress back over who had gone off in a huff, fingered my breakfast and slapped the bill down, who said "what now" to which my colleague said thats the problem right there. She thought that because she was smirking she wasn't being rude... We explained about their attitude, the awful service and the fact they had the audacity to keep bringing us the wrong bill, or any bill at all for that matter to which she then said in a huff "fine, ill do it for you, ill let you off".Sorry but with all of our colleagues at the daily mail who frequent this place, I don't think we were being 'let off" anything.To top it off, the place wasn't even remotely busy. So, The Daily Mail team will now be boycotting this ridiculous place.I'm just glad we weren't with clients!

A colleague has been at lunchtime and enjoyed it so I can&#039;t comment on that but I went for dinner and was underwhelmed. Very short menu (in fact I was looking for another page). Chose risotto which was so salty as to be almost inedible. Did tell the waiting staff this at the time. Desserts were OK.

Arrived not long before closing, so didn't use the restaurant but enjoyed a drink at the wonderful bar, which we very much enjoyed. Great location and venue, helpful staff, would love to return to sample the food. 

Excellent food although service was very slow and side vegetable orders arrived when we had both pratically finsihed our mains.

Place was nice enough Service was excellent Mash was so salty it killed one of our dishes and the other couldn't be ate Shame because the rest of the dish was good

El ambiente muy agradable y la comida de nivel, muy bien ubicado, recomendable 100%. Muy rica la sopa de berros y el cordero.

Now to start, we know we are biased as Adam is definitely our most favourite 'celebrity' chef but we had the most amazing evening at the Pavilion restaurant on Kensington High Street a couple of weeks back. Arrived to a busy bar and restaurant and had booked chef's table some time ago to watch the master at work. Having only met Adam once previously, he acknowledged us like old friends and even throughout the busy service he took time out to chat to us which was really appreciated. It was great to watch the chefs at work and the food was just delightful. I had beef carpaccio whilst my husband had the tuna to start, then we both had beef cheek which was just melt in the mouth, just delicious, no room for desert regrettably.Service attentive. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening and look forward to returning in February. Adam's passion is clearly evident and he is such a genuine person, the highlight of our christmas trip to London. Thank you Adam and brigade for a lovely evening.

the food was lovely and i could not fault it, it wasn&#039;t amazing but still nice. the person who served us was quiet and did not make us feel welcome at all. The service was very slow and we were never offered another drink we always had to ask. The restaurant was cold all night and when me &amp; my family left our clothes stunk of food, the place had very poor ventilation. I would not go back but i must say the food was ok. I think they would benefit from a bigger menu and most certainly i more friendly face to serve the tables.

We had lunch at Pavilion on Friday, the service was good, we loved the open kitchen and the food was outstanding . we will go back again!

The positives: Great location, interior and food. The braised beef cheek was melt in the mouth. We were served quickly and efficiently, this is exactly what I expect from mid-week lunch. The negatives:Confused about the entrance, left me scratching my head whether it was a florist or a restaurant and then i realised it was both. The service could be more personable to make a more lasting impression. Also, the sauce with my braised beef cheek was slightly too hot, which was unexpected and l was left with a slightly burnt tongue. I agree with some of the others that it is a great place for lunch but i don't know if it has the atmosphere for an evening meal, but i guess one way to find out is to try.

This is one of my favorite places to go but we came here and there were a catalog of errors from a rude waiter and flapping about staff. The food is excellent but with countless errors in taking our order, how to speak to us and left waiting around. We asked for the service off and no apology or inquiring or anything. We love coming here but wish they could clean up the service in the restaurant!

If you can find this restaurant - the entrance looks more like a flower shop than an eatery - the food experience is really good. Great for lunch, although getting a table in the front is a real 'must', and with a very interesting menu. We have been there several times and been pleased each time. The ambience is unusual, which is why I would go for lunch rather than dinner - and the service is a little 'patchy' - but I would heartily recommend if you are in the area and want a different meal to the usual Italian and French offerings on Kensington High Street

The restaurant is a bit noisy ( especially when the air conditioning is faulty ) , otherwise the food is really nice.

I pass in front of this place almost every day on my way to work, and finally decided to try it last night. Couldn&#039;t be happier I did so. This place offers an amazing dining environment, with a big spacious room that hides nothing. They feature a very comprehensive bar, open kitchen and even a florist. The food is also a strong point. Dishes are very well thought thru, well presented and delicious. Their choice of cheeses is simply amazing. Last but not least, prices are not crazy. Money well spent, will be back soon!

We were looking for a light lunch and mooching around Kensington High Street when we came across this restaurant. It was apparently a type of members club but open to the public. You enter the restaurant through a flower shop, which is also owned by them. It has a very modern look and feel, a bit similar to a French brasserie with a little bit of the 20/30's feel about it. We shared a starter which was a sardine dish, delicately presented and delicious. I then had venison which was again beautifully presented and delicious. The portions were small (fine dining) but just right for us.Would definitely recommend this for lunch and we would go again tomorrow without hesitation. Should be michelin starred.
