Drawing Room Café

Notting Hill & West London


This adorable cafe enjoys a divine setting within the elegant drawing room (the former Bishop's living room) at the rear of Fulham Palace. Sink into a deep sofa for afternoon tea, pinky aloft. If the sun obliges, nab a table on the terrace facing the gorgeous lawn. The kitchen also whips up hot dishes.
