Kensington & Hyde Park


This beautiful bar/pub in the heart of Chelsea is a hit – from the red banquette in the stylish dining room to the elegant terrace for summer evenings, and from the excellent selection of beers brewed by the capital's many small breweries to the original G&Ts (lots of different gins and flavoured tonics).
