The Kensington Wine Rooms

Met an old friend we hadn't seen since she visited us in the U.S. 32 years ago. A perfect atmosphere for a Sunday evening dinner together. Relaxing vibe for good conversation in nicely appointed upscale wine bar. Wine choices were of a good variety priced by the glass or bottle, our choices were in the £ 7 to £ 12 area per glass and pleasing to drink. The best part were the starters, so delicious that we ordered several and didn't have room for supper! Staff was busy but gave us the right amount of attention. Highly recommended.

Our second night in London and we came across this gem! Fabulous learning experience on tasting wines with a wine preserver system. Such helpful staff and a great experience. Tony, the general manager, was a superior host and teacher.

The chef has a nice touch with the food — light and interesting. One big step up from pub style food. Nice atmosphere and excellent varied wine options. Definitely recommend this place.

We visited with a delegation on 17/11 and the staff was incredible. They were all very kind and professional and the food and wine were great too. Will definitely visit again whenever I'm back in London!

Great place with the highest quality wines I’ve never experienced in an enomatic tasting room.
The staff know their stuff. Great wines. Relaxing environment.
Highly recommended

Love this place🥰 if you love wine this place for you!! they have a lot of nice wine.All perfect for me so highly recommend👍🏻

Great spot to taste a wide variety of wines! They usually have about 40 wines in these little dispensers that you can try from a small tasting size to a full glass. They'll give you a pre-loaded card of whatever value you want (we started with £20) and you can try whichever wines you choose.

We tried at least 10 wines - a mix of reds and whites. As someone who is trying to learn more about wine, this was a great way to compare different regions, grapes, and sweetness levels of wines.

Some wines we tried were a sweet Tokaji, a dry white (Sancerre), and a Chardonnay.

They also serve lunch and dinner. We didn't get a chance to try it since we just had lunch at Portobello Market, but all the dishes that came out for other tables looked amazing. We'll be back for dinner or lunch!

I highly recommend the mackerel pate, it was homemade and absolutely to die for.
Wonderful atmosphere being able to sit outside in their roadside seating and have a lovely wine / Aperol spritz. The nibbles menu wasn’t available when we went on a Sunday but we asked for it and they kindly obliged. 💜
