Sticky Fingers

Eighteen years ago, Bill Wyman opened just the kind of restaurant he most likes to eat in - friendly, welcoming in an informal atmosphere with excellent food and service-the rest is history! Sticky's is ideally positioned in a stunning building, just off the famous shopping Mecca that is High Street Kensington.

Recently refurbished, this haven of great food and original rock memorabilia provides a enviable environment for eating, drinking, and relaxing. The invaluable collection of Stones memorabilia is a real talking point for both Stones fans and anyone with taste for rock heritage. A comprehensive listing is impractical but some of the highlights include:

A full-size 3-D photo master of small 3-D photo on the cover of the Rolling Stones album 'Their Satanic Majesties Request.' Released late 1967, it is only one of three known copies in the world. The Beatles can be seen in the 'undergrowth.'

A home-made Electric Bass Guitar built by Bill Wyman in 1960 in Penge, London. He played this during early concerts and numerous TV shows and was often used on Rolling Stones' recordings until 1976. Amusingly nicknamed by Ian Stewart as 'The Flying Penge.'

Of course, people go to Sticky Fingers for much more than a great visual experience and a vibrant atmosphere. Bill Wyman?s restaurant hit on a formula for relaxed eating that suits just about everyone; you can find out by viewing their Full Menu, do note that they are happy to accept bookings and enquiries by E-Mail.

Sticky?s was recently awarded the 'Best Burger in London' accolade by respected critics at RestaurantSpy, which is a testament to the talent and restless innovation of their Head Chef, the award-winning Ron Lento. The justly fabled ribs are also a perennial favourite as well as the impressive selection of cocktails, wines, draught and bottled beers which will either compliment the varied dishes or slip down well whilst supping at the bar. Just check out their full Wine and Cocktail List.

It is easy to over-intellectualise Sticky Fingers' unique formula. Put simply, it is the perfect place to enjoy a cocktail and meal, buy from a wide range of merchandise or simply chill out and relax with the best burgers in town. Enjoy! Full information can be viewed on their Website. Do note that they are closed on Christmas Day and Boxing Day.

Review by Linda Buttle

Bill Wyman's shares in Sticky Fingers are apparent from the moment you enter this restaurant. There's a sea of Rolling Stones memorabilia and of course they take the opportunity to sell plenty of merchandise while they are at it. Turn your attention to the food though and the restaurant is worthy of a mention in its own right. Apart from its award winning burgers you can also dine on Alaskan lobster, sizzling fajitas, or a tender fillet of lamb with a honey mustard glaze, seasonal vegetable and a potato gratin. There's also a catch of the day to keep fish lovers happy, making this a good place to dine without shelling out a fortune, so good on you Bill.
