The Churchill Arms in Kensington and Chelsea

Very good and plentiful Thai food. Fast service and above all very friendly and attentive staff. Very nice and unique setting.

A cozy and traditional pub within a beautiful building. Unfortunately, the Thai restaurant was closed for maintenance, but we had some great Guinness and cider instead.

Really quaint Thai restaurant. Comfortable environment, very friendly staff and very good food. Very clean restrooms. Definitely worth trying!!

We had Pad Thai and it was tremendously good. Very friendly service and very cozy and lovingly decorated place. We will definitely return ;)

Good food and drink. Fun atmosphere!

Slow bar service from the beginning, although there seemed to be plenty of staff hidden away! Then their card machines wouldn't work. I finally paid and sat down in a quiet corner - there was no sign of any danger whatsoever. I had put a carrier bag on the seat handle, when I quickly popped to the toilet. I was gone for less than a minute and when I returned my bag and drink had been taken!!! BY THE BAR STAFF!!! Lol. It left me in a totally uncomfortable panic. No need for that to happen in such a short space of time. I complained to management and they were totally unhelpful. I know things get stolen very quickly but not in those situations. Perhaps tell your people, that if something like that happens again, use some discretion, give it a minute or two to see if the person who has gone to the toilet comes back! Think of yourself as a traffic warden!

We just had a drink on this visit to London. The Churchill Arms is the epitome of a classic British pub. Harping back to those post war days and a romantic memory of how it might have been. I really enjoyed looking at the memorabilia. Great place.

Iconic Kensington Pub, made even more famous by social media. The exterior is photo worthy in every season. The interior is an ode to its namesake and London of WW2. Worth the trip for pint

I have had my fair amount of meals over the years in various places inside London. Through my visits I have tried several places, with a variety of food. Still my visit this evening at Churchills Arms in Notting Hill, beats them all to bits. Who would have thought, that a pub with that great a british ancestory, and pints many forms, also would contain such delicious thai food? My guess was, no not going to happen. Let ne tell you, the food was nothing short of fantastic. Full of flavour, beautifully seasoned, and well proportioned in portion size. The vegetabkes,was crunchy, the noodles delicous and the chicken scrumptious. Than you for a great meal

This is Churchill's favourite pub with a random random Thai restaurant inside of it. I go there for atmosphere and drinks and recommend doing the same 😉

We went to take photos of the outside and in the end we came home for a drink. It's really worth going there, it's really magnificent

Great Thai food and traditional pub combo!

Great place for a beer and loads of history!

Excellent Thai food, highly recommended. 🥰🥰🥰

An incredible place full of history. Great! Superb both inside and out

Iconic bar in Kensington. Thai restaurant connected next door. Smelled so good, we had stopped in for a pint and ended up coming back later for the curry dinner! Lovely spot.

Lovely boozer for whom decluttering is a stranger

It's just a delight! Very cool, atmospheric, interesting and historical place! I only took a small pint of beer, unfortunately I wasn’t hungry, but this place is something unimaginable!

I don't value the food because I haven't tried it, the rest is spectacular

Good burger, friendly waitresses. They have Estrella Damm and they know how to make good coffee

Very atmospheric place. After a whole day of sightseeing in London, I recommend dropping in for some good food and a beer😊

Mandatory stop to enjoy a London pride, the decoration is a spectacle

Strongly recommend prawn rolls, green or duck curry

I really enjoy the atmosphere of this pub Very quickly look inside

Very nice pub. Food very tasty. Good service. Friday evening with a DJ who plays really good music

Very nice pub, surprised with Thai food options, However very good quality. Service was excellent. Very welcoming, good to have a chat with Gavin and meet Dante, the pub pup. The decore is traditional British nicest pub in london friendly staff. It's a must try when in London!!

The Churchill Arms was busy with tourists. The beer offerings were good. Staff were friendly. The pad ped with chicken delicious too. Definitely meets the Youtube hype. Check it out!

Wonderful old world pub, choice of food was good, food itself was great, very warm welcome, great atmosphere, nice to have table service, decent choice of drinks too, looking forward to returning soon.

Great Thai food and great drinks in such a unique location.

Cozy pub with a lot of decorations hanging from the ceiling, Fullers, Asahi, Neck oil and some others on tap, and great Thai food at the back - can get booked out in the evening but not too bad in the afternoon

Delicious delicious delicious, great price, great Guinness, lovely service and waiters all so friendly and fast.

Known through online reviews, it's a "must-have" for tourists. A great atmosphere. A bar with soul. Highly recommended.

Typical cozy London pub with a history. Thai food in the back is unexpected, and delicious at the same time.

Historic place with a great atmosphere!

Amazing pub with an even better Thai restaurant tucked hidden away inside. Great homely food, fast friendly service and most importantly great quality! The atmosphere is very lively!

Cool Pub to visit and split the G! Good crowd! Lots of interesting people. A true must visit when in London.

Historic Pub with Character – Just Skip the Prosecco The Churchill Arms has an iconic picture-perfect curb appeal, especially in the summer. Unfortunately, we visited in March, but it still gave off great British pub vibes. Inside was just as interesting, with toby jugs hanging from the exposed beams and mementoes everywhere, including an Irish post box. I was looking forward to my drink, but unfortunately, I was disappointed. I asked for Prosecco, just something light and refreshing, the Bartender handed me a dirty glass and a very cheap-looking Prosecco in a mini bottle, leaving me to open and pour it myself. What a letdown. We finished our drinks and decided to eat elsewhere, having been underwhelmed by the service. Visit the Churchill Arms if you want a quick drink and soak in the atmosphere. It's a British Pub I won't be rushing back to.

Nice and original pub to visit if in Nothing Hill area. Good selection of beers

Decoração maravilhosa, e acaba por aí. O menu só tem comida tailandesa. Você tem que ficar espreitando por uma mesa. Ninguém é responsável por isso. Para piorar, pedi uma cerveja Guinness e estava filmando a garçonete tirar a cerveja da torneira. Ela disse para eu não filmar, sendo que eu já tinha registrado vídeos parecidos com outros dois garçons. Apaguei o vídeo na frente dela, mas me senti extremamente constrangido. Como se eu estivesse filmando ela ao invés do meu copo. Enfim, não recomendo e não voltarei.

We visited The Churchill Arms and managed to get a table for two without a reservation, which was a plus. The food was okay, and the prices were still acceptable. However, our experience was somewhat disappointing. One of the older waiters was not very friendly—it was clear that he wasn’t enjoying his job, which affected the atmosphere. Additionally, the restaurant desperately needs a deep clean. While the decorations are certainly unique, many of them are covered in dust or even rusting, which makes the place feel neglected. It’s not a spot where you’d want to linger; it’s more of a quick eat-and-leave experience. Another downside was the automatic 12.5% service charge added to the bill. While this is common in London, it didn’t feel justified given the service we received. Overall, The Churchill Arms has potential, but it needs better maintenance and friendlier staff to make the experience truly enjoyable.

Lovely pub,didn't eat there but the food looked lovely, Thai restaurant inside.

Convenient location and just walk in on weekdays. The Thai food is fine.

The bar staff here allowed a very drunk man to harass two young women who were sitting at the bar and clearly uncomfortable. As the man pressed himself against one she was actually forced out of her chair. This all happened at the bar inches from a bartender. When asked to intervene the staff declined saying he was local. There are a lot of other pubs to choose from.

Female travelers beware! While at the Churchill Arms I encountered a belligerent drunk as I was ordering. He proceeded to harass two young college students at the bar. As the bartender continued to (over)serve him, I tried to engage them in conversation to interrupt him. He pushed his way between me and the women and stood so close to them that he was pressed against one woman who was forced out of her chair by his nearness. The bartender refused to intervene when I asked because the man was a local, “was just being friendly,” and has a wife. There are lots of nice pubs in London, give this one a miss.

What a local spot! I haven't seen such an atmospheric place for a long time. As soon as you enter, you feel as if you were going back in time. A great place to drink a British beer from the tap. The prices for the golden drink are decent. I will definitely want to come back there to try the famous Thai cuisine available there.

A very charming pub in London, featuring interior decor inspired by Winston Churchill and an impeccable exterior facade. It is definitely worth a visit. Follow me for more on Insta @sofis_food_passport & TikTok @sofis_food.passport

The Thai food they serve in the place is very, very delicious, you just have to make sure that they don't add spice to it 😜

Amazing beers, beautiful style, really place full of wonders (if you have imagination). Loved it here. Cheers from Czechia.

Highly recommended! Lovely place to get a pint , cider and London Pride was great here! Service is kind and quick, amazing atmosphere. A local told us a restaurant is great too!:)

fantastic pub with adjoining Thai restaurant with delicious food at fair prices; for me one of the best pubs in London. Notting Hill tube exit

Loved it ! The prices were surprisingly low🤗

Llegó el viernes por la tarde con un amigo. Teníamos dos de los platos de arroz. Pagó £ 2 extra por la variedad de carnes en ella. Pedí té de jazmín, pero conseguí bolsita de té verde en la taza por £ 4. 15 . ¿Es un precio justo para una bolsita de té en Londres? La comida estaba muy mal cocinada y el arroz machacado era muy difícil de consumir. Esperaba que todo estuviera recién cocinado, pero todo claramente cocinado por la mañana y dejado para guisar durante el resto del día. Me dijeron a la llegada que solo teníamos una hora para comer, pero éramos casi las únicas personas allí. Encantadoras fotos de comida atractiva en otras reseñas aquí, así que quizás tuvimos mala suerte. Si traigo mi propia bolsa de té la próxima vez, me pregunto cuánto agua caliente sería. Entonces no necesitaría acceso a su caja de £ 100. ¿Por qué no ofrecer té de cortesía en lugar de compensar precios escandalosos?

Amazing place to have some beers, impressive decor

Typical English pub where you can enjoy some good pints served with great professionalism by young people. Picturesque place worth visiting, very well decorated.👍👍

What a great Pub, the drinks were cold and the food was outstanding! We will be back again!

To be honest I was not impressed, the food was somewhat anaemic looking to be fair. Grisly as-well, served by a frosty and sternly looking waitress. Well we tried it.

Super A must visit place in Kensington/Notting Hill

Really nice staff and food delicious. Quirky Thai restaurant at the back of pub. Been twice, however the second time there were two mice running around under the tables which was slightly perturbing. Probably not their fault. Good value.

Not the most exciting range of beers and very crowded. Went into the restaurant area where there were many empty tables but was ejected by a very rude Asian man who said we couldn’t sit because it’s a Thai restaurant. I went in there thinking it was a pub where this is not how things area done so left a bad impression.

How perfect! Wonderful Thai food, I went close to Christmas and the decorations and lights were absolutely charming. Perfect draft beer, I loved it.

A unique place. You enter a typical English pub. People stand upright with their pints in their hands, you can barely hear each other because of the amount of chatter. But if you walk further, you arrive at the Thai restaurant where it is very quiet. The food is super tasty, although the portions were a bit on the small side. Nevertheless, highly recommended.

Dined at the Thai restaurant and was really pleased. Nice food and great service.

Can’t miss a stop for a pint in this traditional pub 😉

Wonderful atmosphere. Beautiful pub

Absolutely terrible experience at this Thai restaurant. I’ve been coming here for years, but the food quality has been steadily declining, and the service was among the worst I’ve ever encountered. I won’t be returning, and I sincerely hope they train their staff to treat customers with basic respect and courtesy.

Fantastic place to visit, I'm from Leeds , I visit London regular and always call at the "Church" great atmosphere and the Thai food is to die for.

A real English pub!!! But the food in the restaurant part is Thai!! Still excellent 👍

This is Highly recommended 👌 the pub is amazing.. a homage to Winston Churchill, and the ceiling decorations are something mesmerising... & the Thai restaurant is absolutely AWESOME 👌 👏 HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 👌..

Dish number 2 was delicious, I forgot the name, I ordered it with little spice 🌶️😅 the atmosphere was super! Only if you eat at the restaurant you can stay for 1 hour, but if you stay to eat at the bar it is unlimited 😃

Uno esperaría que un pub tan icónico fuera británico. La cerveza era buena, pero (por el amor de Dios) por qué un restaurante tailandés. Y un restaurante tailandés muy pobre. Antes de sentarnos nos dijeron que teníamos una hora para ordenar comer y salir. La comida no era buena. El servicio era robótico y aburrido. Pero la comida tailandesa era muy mala. Teniendo en cuenta la ubicación debería haber sido fantástico. Nunca más

Very good service and a nice time.

Teníamos muchas ganas de tomar una copa en este pub y se veía increíble en la época de Navidad. Todo iluminado e impresionante. No había mesas en la parte delantera del pub, así que nos aventuramos a la parte trasera donde está el restaurante tailandés. Vaya, nunca había experimentado una grosería tan flagrante por parte del personal del restaurante. La señora nos dijo que teníamos ‘condiciones’ si comíamos allí. a) todos tuvimos que pedir al menos una comida principal, NO solo bocadillos, tendríamos que irnos de lo contrario No nos quedaríamos mucho tiempo, máximo de 1 hora Todo dicho sin amabilidad, solo molestia. Todos nos reímos de la grosería de esta mujer. Sinceramente no sé por qué nos alojamos y comimos allí, estábamos muy hambrientos en ese momento, así que nos alojamos. Realmente deberían poner de nuevo la comida tradicional inglesa del pub y conseguir un personal más amable. Nos burlamos de esta señora y nos reímos de su grosería durante el resto de nuestras vacaciones. 4 estrellas para el pub en sí, cero para el restaurante debido al servicio. Pero nos dio una historia divertida para recordar...

The place is super extra, it's worth going even if it's just to have a drink and leave. The food is amazing. We have eaten vegetable rolls (5⭐️), chicken wings (5⭐️) and finally the prawn and meat pad-tai (5⭐️) GREAT, a total blast. The service, however, leaves something to be desired, they have barely listened to us and have practically given us the plates and cutlery so that we can serve ourselves.

A place full of history with a pleasant atmosphere!

Excellent address!!! From the outside the pub is magnificent, inside it is surprising!! We are taken far away by the atmosphere and the food, which is excellent! I recommend +++

Always love visiting this pub. Need to see it at Christmas

A good local pub with the best Thai restaurant out the back

Excellent place, full of history. Highly recommended

Nice pub,but overcrowded with tourists.Good for one pint.

Good pub, but it only has Thai cuisine too bad.

Really cozy pub. Atmosphere and service were perfect.

Lost my wallet on site, the staff kept it in a good place for months, the few notes inside were still there. I recommend!!

The Churchill Arms is a great option after exploring Kensington Palace and Notting Hill. The pub is incredibly eye-catching, both inside and out, with a charming and vibrant atmosphere. One surprising highlight was the Thai food menu, which was a refreshing change from the usual pub fare like fish and chips. The flavors were excellent, and it was a welcome break from the typical pub offerings. Do note that drinks are ordered at one bar, while food is ordered at a separate counter further inside the pub—an interesting setup that worked smoothly.

I was just having a pint! It's quite busy, the waiters should be more attentive and clean the tables. They were all very dirty from previous clients. The place is very peculiar you can also eat, but Thai food!

Fantastic. A wonderful experience.

Magnificent pub near the Nothing Hill metro, their pad tai is spectacular. I recommend 100%.

Used glasses not collected from tables, service a bit messy in general. But great tasting Thai food.

Came down to the pub after seeing it on Instagram the atmosphere was really nice, we got served by Isaac and Sofia they were very welcoming and let us try samples of some beers 10/10 service !

The pub is very welcoming and characteristic, excellent Thai cuisine at very affordable prices for London, I would not have separated the restaurant from the rest of the pub

A place to enjoy the wide variety of beer 🍺. We tried the Thai food and in my opinion it was very greasy and lacking in seasoning. The place is incredible inside and out, a classic London Pub. Option after walking through nothing hill.

Came for an early dinner before a show. Got the shrimp dumplings to start which were more like shumai and not so great. The curries were decent and proportionately large. Service was a bit rushed - would be nice to sip my drink for a bit before the food came. Pub atmosphere was fun and quirky.

Hands down one of the best pubs in London, decor like that is copied by pubs worldwide but cannot be done. To accumulate the amount of worldly items that the Churchill arms has accumulated takes a very well lived lifetime. Take a bow, thank you for your service. Yours sincerely, Mr Sir

Delicious Thai food in a really awesome pub. The interior is decorated in a really cool way but the exterior of the pub really steals the show (especially at Christmas time). Have visited twice and thoroughly enjoyed my meal on both occasions. The prices are very reasonable considering the large servings.

Bright warm atmosphere, makes you feel well at home. Great pints and decent prices to enjoy before your journey home.

What a gem of a pub, we went mid December, amazing atmosphere, fabulous Thai food and reasonable prices. Would have loved to be there in the evening, once it was dark, as can only imagine how fabulous the outside decs would be.

i already miss this place.. pub and thai restaurant in one place?? just perfect for a long evening with friends. the place is so uniquely beautiful it’s hard to describe, the staff is also very nice. i will recommend this to anyone visiting London and i can’t wait to come back here!!!

Best Pad Thai id ever had. Lovely Australian barmen happy explain different ales on tap. The publican was wonderful and chatted to us about the pub giving us insight to its unique nature. And oh, those Christmas lights - what a dream!

I took a trip to see London and visited several pubs. I can say without a shadow of a doubt that this was my favorite! Beautiful atmosphere, cold beer and great service. I will be back whenever I can.

Very nicely decorated bar and the food from the attached restaurant is delicious

Wonderful experience visiting this old pub in Kensington, the atmosphere was fantastic as well as the food. Thank you very nice.
