Lovely! Authentic and quality dishes, with a changing menu, The scotch egg as a starter was fabulous, I had a burger for a change which was incredible, and indeed, the tart was worth the wait 💯 The dishes are really plentiful, glad I didn't have the fish and chips, it's huge, I could never have eaten it all 🫣 The service is also impeccable, good recommendations! Beautiful wine list, Perfect !

Fantastic food and atmosphere, love how this pub looks on the inside. My second time having lunch at The Porchester. Took visiting family there as it was near home and was happy with my previous experience. I ordered the bavette steak which was cooked perfectly. My sister said her fish and chips was also delicious, and the burger and pork dishes which the rest of our group had was also tasty. Our server Grace was very attentive.

Highly recommend. Can’t thank the owner enough for fixing a little mishap we had! Made up for it ten fold, and their hospitality was more than we could have asked for!

Misleading Menu We selected the Porchester for a Sunday roast experience with family after doing extensive research into places in the area that could accommodate all diets— including a vegan in our party. The menu on the website included what sounded like a delicious vegan Wellington with vegan trimmings— all clearly labeled (VG). We made the booking and were excited to dine. When we arrived to the pub, we discovered that the menu at the restaurant had been changed (the website was unchanged) which eliminated the only vegan roast option from the menu, only offering vegetarian. Despite being shown the discrepancy, the server was apologetic but didn’t offer anything else they could enjoy except a burger. They blamed head office but didn’t offer any accommodation for being at fault for the disappointment. Our vegan was upset but as there were no other bookings available nearby in the other options we researched, we were resigned to stay and had the other roast options, and the vegan ate the burger. Our biggest disappointment was the apathy the staff showed for a clearly disappointed person who couldn’t enjoy the meal they expected, and no other goodwill was shown to make up for the establishment’s error. We would never have booked the Porchester had their menu not included a plant-based option. Buyer beware.

This was one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had. We decided to go to this pub for lunch today, and we deeply regret it. We ordered three fish and chips, which is a pretty standard dish, but after waiting 30 minutes for it to arrive, none of us could believe what we were served. The fish smelled absolutely rotten and was mostly just a pile of crispy bread crumbs—probably 90% of the dish was just that. On top of that, the staff were extremely unhelpful and rude. Avoid this place at all costs!

Great spot in central west London, best service I have had in a long while, we had the black pudding and pork sausage roll, meat was juicy and black pudding full of flavour (shared) we then went for the Haddock and chips and wow just wow I can’t explain when this came out I was extremely happy, the portion was excellent and perfectly cooked, crisp batter surrounding succulent white flesh that was still juicy, some of the best chips o have had and all the accompanying bits and bobs, tar-tar sauce, mushy peas, charred lemon all the good stuff, my friend had the Bavette steak, chips, blue cheese sauce and cress it looked lovely, the service was fantastic from all the staff, the bar was busy and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal and had a few drinks to go with all very very recommended, shout out to this place as it has come a great way with the new management a place to certainly enjoy don’t pass it up

I walked into PortChester and straightaway told the bartender I was a tourist from Massachusetts and I wanted an authentic English Ale. He could have rolled his eyes at me. Instead he was very engaging and gave me some tastes of some great English pale ales and cask ales. Even the locals at the bar weren’t too annoyed with me when I said I didn’t want to have Guinness! Great service and great beer. I didn’t have any food, but I should have. If I’m back in the UK, I’ll be back at The Portchestervv

Our first full day in London and our number one priority was having Sunday roast. We were staying in Bayswater so looked at a few restaurants near the hotel. We couldn’t resist the name of this place. We arrived to a classic English pub with the most charming and helpful waiter. I’m terribly sorry I forgot his name. because we had just been flying, we weren’t particularly hungry. We asked to share a Sunday roast portion and he said let me bring you two children’s plates instead. Perfect! And we got our own Yorkshire pudding, which is the whole point of Sunday roast. The food was delicious. The drinks were great. and the overall vibe was super chill and lovely

5/5 service at the Porchester, on a girls trip to London we landed at the Porchester during our visit around Bayswater/Paddington, service was warm and welcoming and the food was delicious, we started off with a few cocktails as you do, we got a few small plates and sharing bits for the table to nibble on, the Camembert was beautiful and the Charcuterie plate had coppa (never had this before) but was super delicious with grilled peaches yummy and a scampi bites to just have a bit of everything, the Margs were probably some of the best we have ever had, we also tried the Strawberry cosmos recommended by of of the wait satff, over all will definitely be recommending to all of my friends thanks guys for a great treat.

We were thoroughly enjoying our experience here until a toddler started to use the space around the dining tables as a playground. The family were also nursing a babe in arms. When were babies and toddlers allowed in your pub please? The low ambience rating is because of this …it was delightful once the little people had left.

Good lunchtime food with excellent service, however, spoilt when a toddler used the area around diners as a playground and the babe in arms was a little fractious..I wasn’t allowed in a pub as a well behaved child let alone as a baby or toddler, am I missing a new law regarding babies in pubs? Is this pub allowing babies inside during the evening as well?

Second visit after a disappointing first one, and safe to say they really redeemed themselves this time around. We should have had the pork roast from the beginning; it was tender and melts in your mouth when you eat it, the crackling was super tasty, veggies were lovely and so were the pigs in blankets, and the yorkshire pudding soaked up the gravy nicely. The sticky toffee pudding was the perfect end to the meal. Some very very minor suggestions such as the Cauliflower Cheese could be better seasoned and the potatoes were slightly tough/overdone but overall the staff handled quite a busy Sunday really well. Service was great overall. It is very clear now why people keep recommending the roast at The Porchester and why people keep coming back.

A nice small pub in a prime location. The bar staff are friendly and there’s some more unique draught drink options which is great. It was pretty quiet on a weekday afternoon so offered a relaxing escape from the busy streets outside. Nice traditional decor and everywhere clean - I’ll be returning for a drink there again.
