Town House
About
Town House at The Kensington is a storied 19th‑century venue that marries heritage with contemporary luxury. Located on Queen’s Gate in the heart of South Kensington, the restaurant serves a refined menu of modern British cuisine crafted from local ingredients, and offers an indulgent afternoon tea in the elegant Drawing Room. The stylish K Bar provides a gentlemen’s club atmosphere, complete with oak panels and a bespoke cocktail menu, while the privately‑owned Study offers an intimate setting for corporate and social events. The Afternoon Tea experience is a true highlight, featuring a seasonal, festive menu that includes classic Scones, Mince Pies and handcrafted pastries, served from noon to 4 pm. Live harp performances and personalized hand‑drawn illustrations on select dates add a touch of magic to the experience. Private dining guests can choose between the comfortable Study, seating up to 20 guests, or the larger Drawing Room, which accommodates up to 30 for buffets and receptions. Beyond the core dining services, Town House hosts a rotating calendar of themed events – from “Frosted Winter Wonderland” to “Live Illustrator Afternoon Teas” – and an ever‑evolving seasonal menu that showcases the best of local produce and seasonal ingredients. Whether you’re in town for a casual breakfast, a sophisticated dinner, or a bespoke event, Town House delivers a memorable experience rooted in timeless elegance and culinary excellence.
