Prince Bonaparte in City of London, Westminster

Nice neighbourhood pub - can get v busy

Food was not great but the quiz and atmosphere were excellent

There for the quiz. Extremely warm on the premises and quiz master was hard to understand with the music on in the background.

Service from Aryaman was amazing! Great explanation of drinks and amazing food.

Great atmosphere, even better staff (aryaman)

Visited with a family group of six on a Saturday lunch. Friendly, responsive service aside from an initial frosty welcome by one member of the bar staff. To the food then. My Chicken Kiev was presented with a burnt bread crumb coating and minimal central filling, the essential ingredient. A rather sorry excuse for such a dish. Likewise, the fries were overcooked and just this side of palatable. How is it possible to go so astray with what is a simple dish ? The salads received slightly more approval by our party although the reception of the fish and chips was not exactly overwhelming. Maybe on a Saturday lunch, the usual chef is not on duty but something was not right, reflected in the totally empty restaurant area. Those meals which required serious cooking were decidely poor. The one exception was my partner's curry which was described as just 'good' and let's say, not more than that (she did say we may have been better booking at a restaurant elsewhere). Will we return ? This foodist will definitely give this so-called gastropub a miss in the future. My recommendation to others seeking Saturday lunch, avoid. Judging by the empty restaurant they already have made that choice.

Went with my parents for lunch. Fantastic food, Sticky Toffee Pudding was out of this world. Selection was beer was rather impressive. Staff are lovely too!

Gran ambiente, increíble juego de palabras en Notting Hill, comida sabrosa, gran servicio! Asado increíble! Volveremos de nuevo! ¡Gracias!

Great Sunday roast very tasty, great atmosphere in the pub, very good service, the staff was very attentive. We will come back

No es realmente un pub. A la gente parece gustarle la comida, pero es difícil ser servido y el servicio no es genial o atento y hay mejores lugares en la zona si quieres una bebida. Quizás debería haber sido un restaurante. No hay suficiente personal. Te ignoran mucho y luego el personal no sabe lo que tienen cuando haces preguntas. Tres estrellas es realmente 2. 5

We had dinner there with a good burger and a nice lager. Very welcoming place.

Would not come here again no atmosphere not friendly at all my first time in this pub it looked nice from the outside was celebrating a birthday wish we had gone somewhere else so many other nice pubs in Notting Hill I will know the next time .M

Part pub and part English restaurant. We had dinner with a typical fish and chips and a pint of beer. Friendly and welcoming staff.

Awful service. Sat there only me in the bar for 5 minutes. Nobody serving. Another customer walks in and bar staff appear and goes straight to her and serves.... I walked out.

Highly recommended, typical English pub with a quiet atmosphere and quite delicious food.

Ky was an amazing server to me today, so lovely and kind with great service!

As soon as I walked in the server, Ky, was very bubble and nice and very helpful to find what I wanted.

Visitamos para el almuerzo, y era delicioso y a un precio razonable. Inicialmente, no planeamos quedarnos mucho tiempo, pero el ambiente maravilloso nos mantuvo alrededor. Los cócteles eran fantásticos, y el servicio era profesional pero cálido y acogedor. Tuvimos un sábado increíble y definitivamente estamos deseando volver, especialmente después de escuchar cosas tan grandes sobre el asado del domingo!

Ce restaurant propose une excellente cuisine de plats rôties (bœuf, poulet, agneau) dans une atmosphère chaleureuse. Il faut réserver. L'équipe est très sympathique et efficace.

The food was very tasty and the service was excellent. I recommend it.

Ayer visité al Príncipe Bonaparte para un asado dominical, y tengo que decir que fue absolutamente fantástico. Desde el momento en que entramos, el ambiente era zumbante, con una multitud animada y ese equilibrio perfecto de un pub ocupado sin sentirse hacinado. Tenía ese ambiente cálido y acogedor que te hace querer instalarte por la tarde. Nos sentamos rápidamente a pesar de lo ocupado que estaba, y el servicio era realmente excepcional. El personal era amable, atento, y siempre parecía estar un paso por delante de registrarse en la cantidad justa, asegurándose de que las bebidas estaban recargadas, y entregar la comida rápidamente sin hacernos sentir apresurados. Ahora, a la comida. He comido asado y este realmente se destacó. Carne perfectamente cocida (yo elegí la carne de res, que era tierna y llena de sabor) , patatas asadas crujientes pero esponjosas, y una excelente selección de verduras — cocinado justo, no mushy como a veces se obtiene. El pudín de Yorkshire era enorme y dorado, exactamente como debería ser, ¿y la salsa? Rico, lleno de profundidad, y el toque final perfecto. Se nota que ponen un gran esfuerzo en hacer todo desde cero en lugar de cortar esquinas. En general, fue uno de los mejores asados de pub que he tenido en mucho tiempo. Entre la comida increíble, el gran servicio y el ambiente animado, el equipo absolutamente lo clavó. Sin duda volveré pronto! ¡Gracias!

Good spot for dinner and drinks with friends. Great vibes on Friday and Saturday night!

We had a fantastic evening at The Prince Bonaparte. All of the staff were lovely and hospitable, meals were excellent, the beetroot hummus and camembert were incredible. We will be back!

Mediocre food. No kids menu. They had a brief period of goodness after renovation but somehow it’s gone in the past year. The grey haired waiter was borderline rude. You can train people to open wine bottles but you can’t train someone who is not hospitable and has RBF and an attitude to match it.

The Baked Camembert was one of the best cheese dishes we’ve ever had. Ridiculously delicious.

The Sunday Roast was truly exceptional. With plenty of gravy and delicious Yorkshire pudding and soft roasted potatoes. We enjoyed out meal on a rainy evening in this cozy but bustling pub resto.

Would like to thank Joanna the Manager for rectifying my previous complaint so swiftly and my husband and I had a wonderful time on Sunday and the food was exceptional.

Great little pub with excellent service and good quality food and wide selection of drinks! Jo the manager was excellent and very accommodating.keep up the excellent work

Tuvimos un gran tiempo en el encantador pub en Notting Hill Prince Bonaparte! Gran comida, el asado era muy sabroso INCREÍBLE! Gran servicio y muy amable y servicial. El pub tiene un ambiente agradable. Recomiendo encarecidamente que volvamos pronto! ¡Muchas gracias por el gran tiempo!

El mejor pub de Notting Hill! Ambiente increíble, personal muy amable, comida sabrosa! Tuvimos un gran tiempo no puede esperar para volver!

Very pleasant Nice staff Nice food Not too noisy Great place

31 de diciembre de 2024 , NYE... Un buen amigo mío estaba en la ciudad con su esposa y dos hijos, reservé The Bonaparte para su familia y la mía (mi esposa y dos hijos también) para NYE. Ocho de nosotros nos dieron espacio en su mesa trasera con la reserva todo listo. Decoraron el Pub para NYE y trajimos nuestras galletas de Navidad y libros para colorear para los niños. Las bebidas llegaron rápidamente y nunca tuvimos que pedir más servicio. Mi hamburguesa era excelente, el pescado con patatas fritas eran fantásticos, mi amigo en la ciudad le encantó su pastel. Los postres eran maravillosos. El personal nos dejó descansar y pedir más bebidas a medida que crecía la noche. Los niños se portaron bien y nadie nos dio el ojo apestoso cuando salimos a las 11 pm para llegar a casa a ver los fuegos artificiales en la tele. NOS ENCANTA EL BONAPARTE, estoy tan contento de haber reservado aquí con nuestras familias para NYE!

Great pub with great vibes and even better service from Aryaman Verma. You must visit

Great Sunday roast tastes amazing, great service and loved the atmosphere. Best pub in Notting Hill…. We definitely going back!

Great pub in Notting Hill, with great atmosphere! The staff were lovely, very helpful and amazing with the service. Food was very tasty. We are are coming back!

Really enjoyable meal on the evening of the pub quiz. Great value!!

Gran pub. Sensación tradicional, pequeña y compacta, pero puede caber mucha gente dentro. Sin duda un pub con buena comida. Fantástica selección de cerveza y sidra de varias cervecerías. Servicio amable rápido. Gran carácter y encanto sobre el lugar.

El asado era delicioso, el servicio era muy agradable y los precios eran muy razonables. Sin duda volveré aquí más de una vez con mi familia o amigos.

Ths place was absolutely incredible! 10/10 all across the board. Absolutely delicious Sunday roast with crispy well seasoned potatoes! Service, food, atmosphere, location all perfect on a rainy winter afternoon. Looking forward to my next visit. Thank you!

Jo has a heart of a gold and a generous shot-pouring hand!!! You will not regret your visit

Amazing atmosphere, exceptional food. A truly great Christmas Day meal.

Delicious food and great friendly service too ! We went again because it was so nice !

Hello everyone, I don't recommend this place because the service is terrible, the food is decent, but the price kills you. I'll try the appetizer, what they call the main course, which in my opinion is not 100 grams, you have to pay as if you were eating caviar, avoid it.

We were disappointed by the food… the beef roast nore the Fish&Chips nore the chocolate cake were that good.

Really nice local pub with delicious food and nice service - will be back

Amazing roast and service was incredible!

Super good value for money. Did not feel in a tourist trap. Cosy food with cosy environment. Staff was nice and welcoming . Was a quick lunch but super worth it. I will definitely try to return

Always go here for Sunday lunch, Potatoes very overdone , table near the toilets not a good idea. Still ok overall .

The pub was pretty quiet last night, but service was terrible. Arrived, were sat and server then promptly disappeared to the back section (which was empty). After about 15 minutes went up ourselves and got some menus. Waiter clearly didn’t want to be there. Eventually managed to order food and drinks and have a drink served. Food is good (although they have really jacked up their prices!). Asked for the bill, waiter acknowledged and then watched him polish and move glasses on and off a tray for about 10 minutes, then clear our table and then ask us if we still wanted our bill? We said we did, and had asked him for it quite a while ago. He clearly didn’t appreciate this, brought the bill and slammed it and the payment machine on the table and walked off…. When he came back I said that what he’d done wasn’t great, he just looked at me - so I asked for the manager. Explained it the manager what had happened and his first reply was ‘oh, I’m sure it wasn’t as bad as that’! When my guest assured him it absolutely was he just said ‘oh sorry’ and went and got the bill again. Such a shame as I live nearby and this used to be a great pub - clearly not anymore. Shan’t be back. There’s the Princess Grace and the Hayden around the corner, will continue spending my money where you are made to feel welcome, not a burden.

My friends enjoyed their roast lunches and I enjoyed my roast squash and lentils salad. Very nice relaxed ambiance and good table service in the restaurant.

Amazing food and the staff are exceptional as is the ambience!

I came to the Bonaparte during Halloween, dressed like Napoleon Bonaparte. I thought the staff would say something, but the didn’t even notice! When I asked they said “whatever, it’s decent.” Honestly they shouldn’t be allowed to be called “The Bonaparte”, if they don’t even know napoleon.

Nice pub. Fun pub quiz on Wednesday nights. A good local spot

I recently dined at this restaurant with a friend, and we had an outstanding experience from start to finish. The food was simply exceptional – we started with the mushroom and duck egg dish and the beet hummus, both of which were bursting with flavor. For the main course, we enjoyed a perfectly cooked ribeye that was tender and full of rich, savory taste. Our server, Marcio, went above and beyond to ensure we had an unforgettable meal, attending to every detail with genuine warmth and attentiveness. His service truly enhanced our dining experience. I’ll definitely be returning and highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to enjoy a fantastic meal in a welcoming atmosphere!

Been here 5 times. Staff are charming and food is top notch. Not sure why people would rate below 5. Quiet and beautiful pub in a lovely area. Not bad prices either. Couldn’t fault, it’s no hanbury but that’s a different breed. Also the pub quiz and wings Wednesday are a brill - definitely pop in!

Really enjoyed the food here! Great steak and sticky toffee pudding!

Had a lovely Sunday lunch. Great food and the majority of the staff were really helpful and friendly. Unfortunately, this got spoilt by an older bar man who took our drinks away when clearly we’d just stepped outside for a cigarette and coats were still on chairs. When I asked where our drinks were, the response I got was dismissive and rude. He then made a big deal of replacing them and gave us a drop of each drink in fresh glasses. Considering our bill came to over £200 for two of us you think he’d have just apologised and replaced. Also, added an extra pint with the assumption that we’d lost count of how many drinks we’d had. Such a shame, as otherwise this is a great pub, but this man who was visibly irritated and dismissive of customers. Really disappointing.

Really great atmosphere- great food - would definitely return

Sadly we may have hit on a bad day. Service was painful. Very slow and a number of follow up requests for missing items were ignored, drinks were incorrect, one was missing after 30 mins and we had to go to the bar to order again. 30 mins before we realised no one was coming to take our order so we had to get up and find someone to do so. A further 30 mins until we got our food which considering it was mainly roasts was confusing as surely just needed plating up. No mint sauce for roast lamb, tried to charge £13 for a child’s portion of mac n cheese. Food was mediocre, roast potatoes awful which I think many people judge a roast by! Carrots rock hard. Sadly we’ll not be back, the pub itself is nice but staff were indifferent and sadly just not the standard we’re used to in the area.

Visited for lunch right after opening and were not disappointed. Would definitely come back.

Really nice pub for a pint after work. Nice vibes with many tables. Not too loud so good for a catch up. Nice drinks menu (I never tried the food but it looks nice)

Friendly service however fish and chips were deplorable . Especially serving nasty, tasteless tinned mushy peas!

Excellent Sunday lunch. Outstanding quality of beef and lamb roasts. Courteous staff. Pleasant atmosphere of the best of London local pubs.

Always a fantastic experience at the Bonaparte! The food is fantastic, their Sunday roast is one of my favourites in London and the staff are amazing and take the time to give you a great experience. A place I recommend to all my friends!

Fantastic staff from the moment we walked in:) The food was well priced with great quality. Will be back for sure

Love this place, not just cos Napoleon is a hero of mine, but the place is awesome, spacesous, great atmosphere & laugh

The Prince Bonaparte is a lovely pub where there is an excellent selection of food which is at a high level. The seating is comfortable and the service is great and friendly.

Jack and Marcio make every visit to the Bonaparte a truly special experience. The food and vibes are always 10/10 and we love this place more than anywhere else in London. Beautiful venue, dog friendly too!

Deux adultes et trois enfants. Très bon repas, dans un joli décors. Le service impeccable, le personnel très gentil. Menu enfant (Fisch and chips taille enfant). Je recommande !

I recently visited The Prince Bonaparte in Notting Hill, and I must say, it was an incredible experience! The food was absolutely delicious, with each dish prepared to perfection. From the seasonal and sustainable produce to the expertly cooked meals, everything was simply outstanding. I tried a scotch egg for the first time, and it was unbelievable! A special shoutout to the amazing manager, Jack, who made our visit truly memorable. His warm hospitality and attentiveness added a personal touch that made our time there even more enjoyable. Jack also poured the perfect pint of Guinness, which was the cherry on top of an already fantastic experience. The vibes inside were perfect, extremely clean and well designed. It has been recently renovated, but still holds true to the charm of an upscale London pub. If you’re in London, The Prince Bonaparte is a must-visit for its delicious food and top-notch service. Highly recommended!

The Best Sunday Roast in London!!!! Have a miss menus to with huge portions. Thanks to chef Santos and the Manager Marco for amazing food and service. Even got my 12 year old into eating Kale. Also have fantastic deserts! Can’t stop coming back! 🍗🥬🥩🥕🥓😊❤️😎🙏🏾

Very nice, well maintained pub with very adequate menu. The food was well prepared and presented but could have been hotter. Classic Sunday Lunch roasts, etc. Would go again.

Music was too loud but staff were very nice and turned it down. Food was just OK. Fish wasn't crunchy. The potatoes from the Seabass hadn't been cooked enough and the burger or the chicken were quite standard. The place is very nice and for those prices I would have expected better food.

Hace poco celebré mi cumpleaños en este restaurante, y fue realmente excepcional de principio a fin. El proceso de reserva fue fluido, y el servicio fue excepcional. La comida superó todas las expectativas – mis amigos se sorprendieron gratamente por la deliciosa bocina de hongos y el salmón perfectamente preparado. Esta celebración fue perfecta, y ya estoy deseando volver pronto. ¡Cinco estrellas en todo el tablero!

Spain won and I didn't feel supported. I was surrounded by Anglo-Saxons...but I was sad for the disappointment of suspending the winery setenil trail...at least Spain won and we got revenge on the Anglo-Saxons...They would have suspended us for just four drops...long live Spain! !

Super local pub with very friendly staff! Although it is a little bit crowded sometimes, it is fine as it has a cool atmosphere. I feel very relaxed and energetic at the same time when I am in this pub with my various drinks.

Super local pub with plenty of drink choices. Wide selection of beers and spirits. Very friendly staff, easy to chat to and welcoming. I’ve not tried the food but will do so. Can get crowded especially when the football is on ! But that’s a good thing, just adds to the atmosphere.

Lovely place to visit with attentive staff. Would definitely visit again.

What a fantastic pub! Recently went for a lovely meal and drinks. Food was superb and the service matched! What a great find. Loved the decor will be back soon.

Fish and chips very good and recommended

Fantastic proper Scotch Egg! Finally!!! Thank you MARCIO and Jack 🔥🎉

Impresionante pub con un gran comedor. La comida era deliciosa y la cerveza y la selección de vinos de primera clase. Merece la pena una visita si estás en la zona.

A great local pub with super friendly staff and a warm feel. The weekly quiz is always a fun Wednesday out

Multiple tables had dogs on the booths and reaching to the tables [none said anything to the dogs owners]. No cleaning of tables and booths/chairs in between customers, so you will sit and eat where a dog has previously stayed. Pub manager also pet dogs and then served the food with no hand washing. Appalling

Absolutely brilliant. Staff were attentive and enthusiastic. Food was delicious.

Great food, a noisy table near us but apart from that a enjoyable experience.

The service was poor! I had to chase up the waiter twice to ask where my food was, despite my friend’s order having arrived 45 mins earlier. In the end, I had to leave as it was pointless waiting any longer!

The dining room and the pub are hardly separate at all. So, lager louts are yelling or laughing maniacally in the face of the quiche eating crowd. The next day we went to the Pelican Pub and it felt like we left purgatory and went to heaven. Everything at the Bonaparte is a good three levels below the Pelican. Down with the French !

Thanks for looking after us once again guys. Lovely food and great drinks. See you again soon 👌

Excellent as usual, guys. Thanks. See you again soon.

Big shout out to Daniel for making our visit memorable! His attentiveness behind the bar ensured that every drink was served with precision, while his friendly manner created a welcoming atmosphere for all patrons. Highly recommended - we surely came back again :)

Nice pub, I really like the atmosphere👌🏼

Very good Sunday roast, we had a trio of pork, beef & chicken. Potato’s nice and crispy, delicious gravy. The atmosphere was amazing, very attentive staff, we felt very welcome. It was quite full at the time we visited, but the service was still good and fast! Will be coming back in next few weeks

Really great service and the sunday sharing roast was so tasty!

Amazing Sunday lunch, the food and service was excellent. We felt really welcomed and a special thank you to jack who looked after us and accommodated our special requests. We are looking forward to visiting again soon.

The place was vibrant and full of people but it was loud - if you’re looking for a plce to have a quiet dinner or conversation it’s not going to be easy there. The food was good with enough variety. It’s location is great and the ambiance great for get togethers.

What a great pub! The lunch menu is perfect, loads of variety, not too heavy and only £22! Very friendly staff, will be back again soon

The warmest of welcomes. Excellent service. Yummy food that’s a step up from the average pub nosh. Comfy seating. Will definitely be coming back.

Poor guys! We arrived to a packed house and looking forward to a great brunch, only to be told by a slightly frazzled waiter that the chef had burnt himself, badly enough to be taken to hospital and that they were waiting for a replacement chef. This meant only a very limited menu. There was no way that we, on a Sunday, would find somewhere similar to eat, so we stayed. The food was very tasty and the long wait understandable, so no reason to complain. More reason to sample excellent beer and cider!
