From the Notting Hill Gate tub stop, it's about a 7 minute walk. It's also pretty close to the Kensington Gardens if you'd like to go before or after the pub. When we arrived, it was super crowded. Folks were drinking outside the pub because all tables were taken inside. It didn't take too long for us to order (got a Pimm's Lemonade and a pint of Guinness), and thankfully a table right next to the door opened up after we received our drinks. The Pimm's Lemonade was meh, but the Guinness was great (could def taste the difference between the tap and a can). Next time, I would love to return to try the Thai restaurant in the back!
The Churchhill Arms is such a cool concept. You have a traditional English Pub in the front and an authentic Thai restaurant in the back. To no surprise this place was packed in the front and in the back but we lucked out and were able to get the only table available so we were able to sit down for some beers and Thai food. I will say they do take a reservations so for peace of mind I suggest planning ahead. Once seated we checked out the menu and there were so many delicious sounding options so picking what to order we knew would be tough. We started with apps of course. We went with the Dumpling s and the Spring Rolls. We also noticed that their prices were really good too. Some of the best we saw in London. The Springs Rolls were very good and came with 6 which was great. My favorite of the 2 were the Dumplings though. I was thinking the dumplings would be more like gyoza but these were more like Shumai which I prefer. For my entrée I had to go with the Pad Kee-Mao which we Americans know it as Drunkin Noodles. For 12 quid you get the option of Beef, Pork, Chicken, Prawn, or Veg. You're not going to be that in London. The Pad Kee-Mao was amazing. Good spice without it being over powering. Plenty of flavorful saucy noodles with lots of tender beef. I also good to try the Panang Curry and The Pad Thai which were also great. The Churchhill Arms is for sure an amazing place to stop for a pint and some great Thai food.
This has got to be the most beautiful exterior of a pub I have ever seen. It is worth it for you to at least walk by, take a picture, and maybe pop in for a beer of a bite. I knew I had wanted to visit this pub since I saw pictures online ages ago. As I approached and say the gorgeous plants, flags, and signage ... I was not disappointed. The interior is spacious, but it was busy when we visited. There is no host/hostess, so, be prepared that it is on you to procure a table. The staff was nice enough, not overly friendly, but it's a pub, and I didn't necessarily expect 5-star service. There are plenty of drink options (mostly beer). The decor is chaotic and cluttered, but it works, and creates a fun environment. I wish I had time to try some of their Thai food. It smelled amazing as it passed by our table. Some tips: This pub is near the Nottinghill area. So, if you get a chance, check out the colorful buildings and the neat Portobello Market. If it's busy and packed, split up to search for seating. Odds are people all just having a pint or two and will be in and out shortly. The Thai menu looks amazing, but don't come in expecting typical English pub food. Also, the men's restroom had the most pungent urine smell that you could actually smell it harts away in the pub area. So, you might have to hold your breath as you go in. All in all, it was a fun time, and I would definitely go back! Cheers!!
Average Thai food, pricey too but lovely drinks and vibe inside.. on a great street too
The best Thai food in London. A great pub. Lots of incredible people watching. Maybe a little touristy, but just be thankful we still have tourists in London. Everything is great at the CA.
